I'm excited to announce that thejdm is now updated to the latest phpbb 3.2 software. You may notice the site is now mobile friendly but with the upgrade comes some hiccups. theGarage, theGallery, theArcade are no longer supported. In due time the developers should be working to release the modifications to work on the new software. #LetsMakeForumsGreatAgain

Autocross day :)

Post by 99excoupe » October 28, 2003

Sup guys. I ran SCCA autocross on sunday...and it was a goood time. We had 5 runs...and I got my time down from a 84 to a 72. The average times were 68-72 so I think I did pretty good for a n00b. The civic held up really well and I am glad I spent the money where I have. Some things I noticed I need to work on was setting up my corners a little better, and running as close as possible to the cones. I also need to get harnesses, a better steering wheel, and better pedals. I have sparco harnesses on order...so that should help out alot on the next race on the 8th on November in New Orleans. My dad's best run was a 72....and thats in his 00 Dinan BMW M Roadster...so I bet he was pissed :) . The fastest time was a super stock Z06 on slicks...it got a 60 :red: !!! :)


Ready and teched in :) Image

SCCA is rad. I was meaning to get to an autocross to give a go this summer, but never got the chance. It definitely looks fun.

I race autoX as much as possible. Its usually a race prep Z06 that pulls best time down here too.
