finally got around to rendering the video from an autocross from last summer.
I bought this car back from the guy I sold it to a couple years earlier. With some help from SMOKEYDUB, over the following 48 hours, I put in my special gearing LSD tranny, installed strut braces, a big rear swaybar, a Giles 12mm pump (on loan from SMOKEYDUB) and a few other things.
I finished in time for almost an hour of sleep before heading off to the races.
I had a blast, though it became painfully obvious that after a two year absence, you don't just jump back into it and still be good.
I did manage to beat a turbo AWD talon, a Lotus Elise turbo, a rotary powered mgb, and a big block corvette. (not that such a vehicle could ever handle, but it was a slalom course, the first part being a relatively straight drag race, side-by-side)
So, I present the mess resulting from racing on 1 hour of sleep after a 36 hour modfest in a car owned only two days.
Enjoy, and try to ignore my dropping the F-bomb in the 4th run. It's a high-adrenaline environment, and I was wearing steel toe work boots.
