Auto-x went pretty good. The 1st run was slower to figure the course out(1st run in picture). Once I got it figured out I was doing consistent high 60 second runs with a best run of 68.581, right behind stock Honda Fit. The only issue I had was the course layout, it was good. The issue was that it did not suit my gearing well. At the first event I attended I could do the whole course in 2nd.
The layout today was way more technical, but it was hair to fast for 1st & hair too slow for 2nd. On one stright I could get into 2nd, but by the time boost came on, I came to a corner. After a few runs I found it was faster to keep it in 1st. Still good fun.
Also got to ride along in modified Exige for a run. It was very fast. Hearing the supercharger inches behind my head was a holy experience. I bearly fit in it, getting in was easy. Getting out on the other hand. I need an Exige now.

Those are some clean fucking cones lol. My local regions always had the blackest most destroyed cones I could have imagined. Cones were only retired when they could no longer stand up on their own.
Also, I love seeing your juke on an autox course. It’s putting the SPORT back into sport utility vehicle. Yeah yeah I know “CUV” but same idea basically. I’ve got a coworker who tracks a newer Forester and seeing pics of that always makes me smile. Any car is a race car if driven appropriately.
And advice for course layout being your challenge; make sure to get like 3-4 course walks in at a minimum. I’ve found that I can easily make all of my runs end up within a couple tenths and sometimes even have my first run be the fastest! Solely because I walked the course a bunch and really focused on it rather than bullshitting with other drivers whole casually strolling it once or twice.

I could walk the course 4 times & still have a bad 1st run. My 1st run I plan on taking it slower, then after that it's full send.
