Default A&A Corvette autocross video. 12/4/2011..

This was the last race for the Porsche club. I couldn't decide what tires to bring. New vs. old. One of my hardest competitors had car problems earlier in the week, and I wasn't sure if he was coming. So I took a chance and came with the older ones. Oest and his GT3 came, and quickly set the pace in practice. Not to get to excited, I knew the race would add pressure to all of us and the final outcome would be in our own hands. The other competitors went ahead of us. There best time in that group was a 52.7 Oest and I went last. My second lap was a 52.2 Oest second lap was 52.4 My third lap I turned a 51.7 but I hit a cone. 2 Second penally. Oest had his final chance, but on his third run his GT3 lost a coolant line and had to pull off the track. That was it. I finished 1st. in class. 1st. overall out of 95 cars.

Excellent driving as always. 52.2 even after catching the last slalom in a slide, gratz!
Hope my car runs without a hitch this Saturday, my first full-sized autocross:o
