And I am not crying about the wedding, but because I missed this event!

Good you guys had FUN! But now Kevin, you HAVE learned that an AutoX is harder than a track event :) On the track, the turns are more high speed, smoother, and you can get a rhythum going when doing laps. At an AutoX, as you said, you SEEN DA LIGHT as far as the tail goes! Go in too hot - understeer, let off the throttle too fast and hard to compensate - sudden and massive oversteer. I still have yet to master this (as well as the gas pedal being an ON/OFF switch, ha ha).

Mr M is coming along, that is for sure! He got hooked by just one event - the Ultimate Street Car Challenge awhile back, and has been having FUN ever since! Can't wait till I can see him at a track event with that AWESOME car of his! But I think he would get even better times with GeForce KD's or RE71's on his car.

As for the mods, yep - the springs would pop you out of SS class. We don't get to play with all the "goodies" in stock class, but then so do the others as well in stock. I just wish that they made the "R" tires into a separate class instead of the street tires being so.

As for the RX3, I am SURE that was Tom Berry! He is ass kicking in that car at the Nationals! He also has his kids racing Go-Karts in AutoX as well - a real FAMILY affair!
