Yea, Autox is much faster than people realize.
I did an autox several years ago in my old Lude... much fun, but realized I didn't have the time nor income to dedicate to it. I also had to drive 3 hours just to participate! Dover was such a black hole at times... However, even on the smaller parking lot course they raced on, I topped over 70 MPH. No where near as fast as that track or that Vette, but the course was much tighter. |

Correction, AutoX where you live is much faster than most.
Auto-X out here is SLOOOWWWWWW. You won't get out of 2nd gear. The insurance company probably restricts the length of the straightaways or something. Where is that camera mounted? |

On our layouts, even in second, you've got your hands full. Opening up the course looks great if you have the space.

I routinely hit the rev-limiter in my Z in 2nd gear (91 MPH). In Key West, when I ran the Serpentine this spring, I saw 120 MPH through the finish line and was well over 100 in 3 or 4 other places on the track. When I go back in October for the 50th Bay Bottom Crawl, I suspect I'll see closer to 140-145 MPH. :thumbright:
