First AutoX in the 13 Z w/ vids/pics

Didn't go great but didn't go bad with any mechanicals, spins (almost), blown tires etc.

I'll admit the setup isn't great at the moment but I don't think it ever will be for autoX; I'd rather have it built for the track. It was a fun day but very long in the mid 80's with little breeze.

I need to just do more investing in proper items and seat time. I couldn't for the life of me touch the throttle on corner exits without the back end wanting to spin or the whole car wanting to push/slide to the outside. Not understeer, just slide. I just had 2 way coils installed and I didn't adjust them because every run kept coming down in time.

Current mods aren't great if anyone wants to comment...
1. 255/40/18, 285/35/18 HTR Z3's---don't feel that great and not that sticky from what I saw everyone else running and what I felt. It was like ice.
2. Coils are 2 way 18k fronts and 12k rear true types. These were supposed to be for when I get slicks, front splitter and GT wing. I have the splitter material and tires or GT wing will be next.
3. My weight ratios 57/43 so that might play into a light rear. Rear cage is also next I think so I can add 100lbs of steel back there plus hook up a racing seat with harness.
4. Whiteline front solid set to full stiff and stock rear.
5. And alignment...



It sucks autoX moves around because what I want now might not work at another parking lot. Mid Ohio's coming up so I really need to focus on that.

Enjoy some stuff...ran a 0:46. I'll have to find a list against other cars to stack up too. I know a lot of BRZ/FRS's with tires and what nots ran 0:42-0.44 if that means anything. My friend with a 350z with not to much done running NT555 also ran 0:46's.
