come on out...as for info....clean your car out(make sure there aint nothin loose floatin around) raise your tire pressure, take out your floor mat, go to the bank and take out $20 + food and what not, go play grand tourismo 3(complex course), get a good nights sleep, get up early, go to pungo, walk the coarse, and make good friends with cones(unless your like me and you have a never ending grudge with them), and get ready for the time of your life...also get ready to make tons of friends...one cause you got an aerio and i have yet to see one at autox, and am interested in seein how it handles, and two..cause its autox...everyones on the same team...

dont worry about what you have done to your car, or what kind of tires yet....get used to your car, learn to drive it, and get as much seat time as possible, then change/modify as needed according to what you feel is needed.
