My first Auto-X experience!

[Trevon]

My last run, please read description for more info on it:


( Same video, if the embed doesn't work -- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oDwCNSs1aZQ )




















There were 19 cars total (not all pictured, some were running while I did a few quick shots of what was in the "pits")



I have a few more videos I will try to get up on youtube tonight.

What a blast this was though, the car really just felt to be more alive than ever , don't think anything broke either, just running a bit too rich, gotta re-jet the carb one of these days.

Looks like a fun day!

You look very good for your first time out. Did you have fun?

[Trevon]

Definitely...the most fun you can have with a car under 35mph! ha The course today was a bit quicker than yesterday and it was two laps, so much fun.

I think I did get both courses down pretty quick, some people got lost a lot but those 2 cones on the last run were the only two I hit all weekend. Seems like as soon as I started there was nothin' on my mind but "hit the gates," I'm still so excited about it! lol Doesn't seem that fast in the video but driving, those gates come up quick hah. Can't wait for another one. Some people told me to go to a drift event I was breakin' loose so much on that last run but it was all extremely controlled. Haha, I'm excited!

Hey, great job getting your car out there! That looked like a pretty fun course. What group organized the autocross?

[Procharmo]

Loving the T/A with the T tops off. Did your helmet hit the glass? Was there a Brit there? I noticed the Jack painted on the Mini!

Thanks, I've watched your videos a few times and they're great!

I took the T-tops off just cause it was so hot and I don't have AC but my helmet would have probably hit (those Procar seats sit a little higher than stock), I did it first then everyone removed their tops/T-tops lol and there wasn't but there were a couple people there that built the Mini specifically for Auto-x'ing.

Thanks, it was put on by a local club -- Black Hills Sports Car Club but they told me it was either tied in with/had the same rules as the SCCA.
