Houston AutoX Regional 3 Mar 2013
Alrighty, so, here are some photos I was able to take at the Houston, TX Regional AutoX (Solo SCCA) Event held this past Sunday, Mar 3rd 2013. Held at the Houston Police Academy ... hence the Police Rides.

Enjoy.

Haha ... yeah. That course was also very confusing.

We had 8 people in STF, which was awesome. And everyone of us hit the middle cones at least once in the whole time we were there.

That long left was definitely run, it was like a slingshot into the next slalom.

Learning how to come out of that for the slalom was what killed it for many of the people there. It was the make it or break it moment. There was only one line to make that work, and on my best run I got it and shaved a full second off my time. But only once, knew where it was, but kept worrying about the slalom afterwards.

Looks like a ton of fun. What are the specs for your wheels/tires? That setup is perfect looking

My wheels are 16x7 Rota Slipstreams about 12-14lbs each. And the tires are the Hankook RS3s, 225/50 R16
