Default PCA Autocross Race video. 12/10/2017.

New venue for us. Pretty small track for PCA standards, but was lots of fun. The traction was horrible in the morning, but got better as the day went on. Lots of tire noise for sure.
The Boxster guys came out and dominated the event. My experience as of late, if you don't own a Boxster or the new Miata, you're pretty much wasting your time. I'll stick with my Corvette thank you. 7th. overall on street tires.

That tire squeal is a much higher pitch than any of our other typical venues. That slurry over asphalt surface changed throughout the day....and really changed the game up. Enough grip that I still had a blast, but a totally different approach to some of the elements for me. Easy on the tires....although it sounded like a chase scene in a parking structure!
