First AutoX of 2011 on the Nationals site in Lincoln (video)

Last weekend took out the STU 135i out to the first autocross of the year out at Lincoln Air Park on the Solo Nationals pad. We pretty much ran the West course from last year's Nationals, with a few small tweaks. Was a very fun course. Wish it would've been a tad bit warmer, so I had so more grip, but what can you do. Really looking forward to the ProSolo and National Tour at the end of the month.

Video of my fastest run a 69.7. Good for 3rd place in STU and 8th overall (out of 40) for my heat in PAX, ended up 22nd overall out of 85 in PAX, the other heat was warmer and led to some faster times.

Looking at that makes me want to jump the gun and do more tours... (next year, next year...)

Do you feel any tweaks coming soon for your setup? If I'm remembering correctly you are still with the stock rear sway and 900 for your rear spring rate, right?

Yep still on stock rear sway and 850 for rear rate. Probably not going to do much to the car this year... still trying to get the 'driver mod' down before I do too much else.
