Hey This Picture Moves!?!?! (AutoX Vid)
Just thought I'd share my car bustin' around at an AutoX this last weekend. Enjoy.

Please save to desktop and then watch, it will save me some much needed bandwidth, since I'm paying for it as it is.

I don't know yet, I left before everyone finished and they posted final results, I was in the Novice class so that should help, but I know I didn't finish 1st in the STS class anyways. There was a black ZX3 a Black SVT and a silver ZX3 also in it. The SVT and the Silver ZX3 were in GS and HS respectively I believe, the SVT took 1st in his class, and the silver ZX3 also in his. The other black ZX3 finished slightly ahead of me...course he had the full SVT suspension, the eibach anti-roll kit, and full prothane urethane bushings also, so he was a bit better set up to handle than my squishy rolly sedan.

That's pretty cool! Sure wish I had a video cam.
BTW:
Dang! I thought we had a small course in Great Falls, MT.
Anybody hit any of the obstacles on the course?

That's a whole lot of fun, isn't it.

yeah it wasn't that big, but nobody hit any of the islands or anything, plenty of cones saw their lives flash before there eyes though.

Do you have Brembo slotted rotors, Mintex pads, stainless steel brake lines, and the stock suspension?

Was this your first time AutoX'ing? I've never tried but it looks like a lot of fun!

Yes I do, I will soon have the SVT suspension and the Eibach sway bars. But for this run I had just the stock roley-poley suspension. Sorry about the max bandwidth thing...I've got more now, so feel free to watch until it overloads again. :)

That is so cool. my cousin did that a while ago and would always make us film for him, I was too young then so I didn't care about cars. This brings back some memories
