After looking at these pix though, I'm realizing a couple things. First, I need to get better sway bars ;) Also, I need to run higher pressures up front. I can see my tires rolling over in the pix, which isn't helping my times much :) I'll fix that the 1st weekend in Nov :-D

Here's me from my last auto-x with 42 psi f/r and 30mm sway up front and 20mm in rear.

My rear bar will be on stiff for the last auto-x of the year (if I get these damn Neuspeed brackets in) but will be put back on the soft setting before winter.

Or were the cones already down? :-P

notice how that inside wheel is just barely touching the ground?

I'm gonna try upping the tire pressure again and see what that does... maybe run a lil softer in the rear to see if it wants to kick out some.

That was a round about... so we reversed the course after going through it the first time. Was pretty cool... never saw it before. Def added a lil spice to the course

And though I did hit my share of cones (last run was my only clean run) I thankfully can say I didn't knock those down ;) They were directional cones in a circle to show us how to go aroudn the circle.

something i just learned last weekend

next time.

i ended up taking 2 lbs out of the rear i started with 36 36 and ended up with 36f 34r that was for the de for the auto cross i am thinking of trting Mances recomendation of 40 all around to start and go from there.. any other thoughts fo rthe autox

smooth is fast... don't go too hot into the slaloms, and I'm sure there's more. 1st run go at a decent pace, but use it to learn the course for 1 last time (after you walk through the course at least 3 times on foot) then progressively try beating your times. I tend to go easy 1st run, then go balls out the last 3.

smooth as butter wins the race.. even though we wernt racing..:)
hehe.. i know if i had alittle more power i could have beat the m3s the straits were too long for me to keep up.. but i always would catch them in the curves..:) ok not all of them but one in particular in my run group.. actually always passed this 328i with ease..
