I'm trying to work out a little scouting report. Does anyone in class 3 remember car number 77 (Blue 335i), what It had for mods, etc?

Had enough to kick the crap out of us lowly Fords. As the first of the Mustangs in 3, I felt like the tallest midget when I saw he had something like 4 seconds/lap better. He's all yours for the taking.

I'm just going to try to not get last this time, since the chick in the Lotus moved to 3R. Lol

Hope the rain stays away for both events.


Rain is supposed to come through Saturday night, into Sunday morning. I hope it does stay away for y'all

So you're college fund racer lol. Wish I had my new mods so I could give u a run for your money. I'm stock for now with tires so I had to run STU NOVICE

I think you guys are severely underrating experience and overrating the vehicle.

Yup. When I first started AutoX, I let a buddy of mine co-drive my car. He was 5 seconds faster than me. I wasn't even all over the place, just inexperienced. He had also never driven my car before and I drove it daily.

Jucostud 03-06-2014 03:14 PM

I don't under estimate that at all. I won my class last week in a stock car lol.

A lot of people appear to think that AutoX is like roll racing. The better your car is, the better you will be. That's not the case.

I already know that guy is quick, but that's who Im gunning for. very good driver in a very balanced car, with the same (or more HP) then my 3v. Should be a good time.

Not at all. I've seen it stated as 75% driver, 20% tire, and 5% car. Works for me, I've got no problem wearing that ass kicking.

Cool. Same class then. It's not me you should fear, the boost buggies should be the car to have, and STU has a terrible PAX number. On the other hand, the pony is just too much fun.

Once my mods go on, I'll be in CAM or SM. Stupid LCA and relo bracket rules.

Jucostud 03-07-2014 04:01 AM

And not to mention, intake manifold and cams... And no cats. Yep, cam and SM

donutninja 03-07-2014 10:20 AM

Slightly off topic but since I saw that Tortuga was doing the ER event I looked it up because I've never heard of/been to Lone Star Park.

Google maps Satelite view was taken during an AutoX. You can see the course layout and two cars on the course XD
