Subject: Re: Sadturdday Chat 05.06.12 by biggrizzly on 2012/5/5 23:54:21 Good evening you Guru Rats!!!  I got back a while ago from our Autocross Day 1 - We always present a newcomers class on Saturday before the Sunday events and let them drive the course until we get tired of watching. We got a whole new crew of young people pouring into the Saturday clinics with Mazda 3, 350z, and the likes. These kids are in their mid to late 20s young professionals - computer geeks I think. A good group today. One youngish girl whooped her boyfriend in the same Mazda 3. He was pretty sad that she had bigger balls than him. I drove my Corvette today on the course and really wish I had driven the MX-5. On this tight course the Corvette drove like a pig. Understeer badly where I didn't want it to and then of course oversteer bad when I came out of corners with too much juice. I'll be driving the Mazda tomorrow for official runs for sure. The Corvette feels so big and heavy after driving the MX-5 in the past three autocross events. Kind of disappointing as I wanted the Corvette to be an autocross car. |
