Default Im new, aint don't drag race!

Hey all. Im happy to see there is an Autox/OT forum in this Drag Racer habitat.

Well first let me introduce myself. Im Kevin, I run a horribly unbalanced DSP Merkur XR4Ti in some VMSC Autoxs. I've done horrible everytime because the car has too much power, too little tire, and about a 90/10 weight distribution...heh. Anyway, enough bitching from me...any other VMSC'ers on here?

I think Lightningd was at the last autox i did. Of course his "grocery-getter" set a fater time then mine...heh...props to you my friend!

Anyway, i'd like to get to know some of the local autox'rs and hopefully learn something from y'all along the way.

I have a huge list of project cars and a college kid budget...so they will be project cars for quite a while...but i know having friends in the right places always helps.

Kevin - Function over fashion...

haha, yeah i was there, and i didn't do to well. the last run was a "try to get a clean one in" run. the other runs consisted of a spin, a cone bashing, and a bake fade problem. but anyways, welcome to the board.

I'm trying to get into autox now. Just got new KYB AGX shocks and getting springs soon. How should I get into it? Where is a good place to get a helmet?

Welcome to the board. Maybe you will remember my Green Sentra SE (4door that is kinda loud). Welcome to the board.

Thanks guys...

I remember you running, it was almost completely DARK..ha. Everyone had to have their lights on...bad stuff.

I actually think i know of the Sentra you are talking about. I actually told my friend that day that it sounded amazing..like a VTEC on steriods...very strong sound.

Anyways, i hope to move past autox very soon as i get this 510 ready for open tracking. Its not that i dont enjoy autox, but nothing compares to open track!

I'll probably still be doing some VMSC autoxs this season if time permits...

Its all good now. Ashland is actually a very tiny town and nothing much goes on here until those two f*ckheads had to go and shoot people.

Trust me...its anything but scary...

LMAO!!! That is very untypical for Ashland...i assure you. Even though you can really completely control a town that is right off the interstate! Give it another try...heh
