Default F.A.S.T. autocross action (VID)

Had a killer time at the FAST autocross in brookville, fl this past weekend. A two day event with saturday being a team event and sunday being a standard points event. The new michelins where killer out there and really helped improve my times. They were just a little slick on sunday morning with the temps being in the high 50's. For just my second time out in the C4 I think I'm doing pretty well. I'm hoping I cracked into the top ten for overall...if not, I was damn close. On saturday our team set the time of the day with a 2:13 and second had a 2:18! We pooched the runoffs and ended up fourth though.

RESULTS JUST IN: 8th overall! I got 1st in class when I made my first clean run. Now I know how corvette racing felt when in GT1.

So on with a couple of vids and a couple of pics.

The saturday team event. It was a fun layout and scheme.

Yeah, the airport has a 60mph speed limit so it's setup to get speed, then take you down quick. It's pretty damn fun though...
