Another great day for an AutoX.
Nick was nice a enough to give me a ride home yesterday and back to the “track” today. The course was the same as the day before, only backwards. It’s amazing how much that can change it. I got a pro-tip from an veteran once that if you really want to learn the secrets of a track you should walk it backwards. I’m going to try to remember this at the right time during the next event 
.
After the walk was the customary driver’s meeting.
Then it was time to go out for some course work. Some of the lines changed out there and had some gravel left on them. It’s was nice to let the first group deal with that 
. By the time I was out it was all cleaned up.
Then it was time for my runs. We ended up getting 5 runs. This pavement is great. We were able to get 3 cars out on track at once. It really cut the event time down and let us get the most runs. I managed a pair of 46.2′s on my last runs. I’m pretty happy about that. This car really isn’t setup as an AutoX car at all. No other issues to report. I love driving this car. It’s so forgiving and light.
There will be more work next tuesday. See you then!
