Placed 7th overall!

Pax times are your best time with a modifier based on your class.

I had to leave after 4 runs because my daughter had a fever - some of the other guys got like 12 or more runs in!!!

So I'd say I did DAMN FINE.

Car 191 was a HEAVILY modified BMW (it sounded SO sweet) and the MR2 that placed 2nd was quite tweaked.

I think I was one of the few in the top 10 with street tires - albeit I had the S-03s.

Very happy with my time though. Quite respectable compared to a lot of the other cars.

fahoumh · 03-30-04, 01:48 PM

nicely done, Sky

I can't wait to take my car to an auto-x this summer.

stinkboy · 03-30-04, 04:39 PM

he better have some CT sways on that car. since i was told they were installed.

you can autox any car. with the right driver any car can kick ass. the last autox that the AW members had in florida, one of the teachers took other people cars and showed what the car can really do. there was a nissan sentra, camaro, our cl and tl cars as well.

although i think my bimmer will do better than my modded tl did. atleast if the driver doesnt still suck at autoxing.

<-- trying to keep the sway thing on the hush hush.

I look forward to demolishing another bavarian overprice-mobile at the next AW event we have.
