So I did an Autocross

And my final run, I epically spun. AND the PDR failed to pick it up due to my poor choice in SD cards I installed (wrong size, wouldn’t format. ) Slowest Corvette of the day, including C5s and C6s.

Those cones are actually really hard to see even after you walk the course twice. Next time, I’ll be showing early walking it about 12 times.

Here is the picture proof I was there that day, and my car isn’t even in it. I have one post-spin video where I am ending the run post spin, which is about as unexciting as it gets.

AZSolo at !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! on 4/6/19. I did beat a Miata, which means something if it’s your first time. Only took me 550 extra horsepower and massive 20" tires, but I DID IT OPPO. My best time was 46.8 out of 4 runs.

The best Z06 driver there did a 37.8, so I have some time to make up.

I am addicted to getting in as many course walks as possible. It is astounding to me that if I just do one half assed course walk, I am prone to going off course or getting lost. But If I do a solid 2-3 I am perfectly fine. Then getting in a fourth or maybe even fifth walk and I will really have things down. Gotta walk quickly though to have enough time for that!

Yeah - I get why cones are used but I wish there were a few taller markers. The walk is clearly the most important bit.

I tell you there is a lot of satisfaction beating corvettes of all kinds in a 45 year old datsun with a 3.0L 6 cylinder under the hood. Once you get used to the car and Autox I’m sure you will be going crazy fast.

3rd person video is most helpful IMO, or any shot where you can see your tires. Knowing where my car was would help me associate my vision from the driver's seat to where I was at compared to the cones

You earn a lot of respect betwixt the cones when it's clearly all ability.

I did. And that spin came out with the briefest of throttle pushes .

I bet that was a wild ride. Was it coming out of a turn?

10% throttle post apex planning to go wide open, interrupted by an unexpected 360. I'm calling it The Corvette Bite
