Default A&A Corvette Autocross video. 2/16/2013.

With a Sway bar change, the car is handling better. It still needs more grip up front. I'm going to change the sway bar again and add endplates to the splitter. I've been driving to conservative lately for some reason also. This lap was pretty good except for one turn I went to wide. 3rd. overall out of 75 cars.

Tie down that thing flapping around the pass side window, good for 2 or 3 tenths.

Steve, you should think about coming to the SoCal Challenge:

http://www.socalchallenge.com/

Only real rules are 200TW tires. Its a TON of fun. It will be streamed live on Bangshift.com too.

Nice run, Steve! We still haven't made the move out to LA yet but we found a rental house that is going to be available in La Crescenta when the house sells.

I really enjoy autocross...but, I have to admit I am hooked on track days because I can get a lot more track time in a short period of time...and I don't have to **** cones The best part of doing autocross was all of the fantastic people I met. I was always so impressed with how willing everyone is to teach improved driving techniques.

That looks like fun. I can hardly keep up with the expenses I have now. Will have to sit out those events.

La Crescenta is only 5 miles from me. Will have to hook up.

The help stops when the teacher gets beat. Glad your having fun.
