    COM SUPER SUNDAY AUTOX I

    A quick note. Corvettes of MN is having an autocross event this Sunday at the Dakota County Technical College in Rosemount. This is a pretty nice track, not cones in a parking lot. They have about 47 more slots available right now. Cost is only $30.
    You can get more information and register at the link below. Novice drivers welcome.

      I had 16 cones and may have been the highest cone killer other than some 'vettes that seemed to aim for them...

                  Wait until after Sturgis, you're just going to run over more cones again...

                    I avoided most of the cones, except for the few after that sweeping left turn. Took out the second gate going sideways and took the next one out as I spun into the infield. September will be better.

                          In all fairness...

                          Here was my "exciting" run.

                          Once the mayhem starts, it ends up being 4 steering corrections at full lock each direction.... through a slalom.... hitting NO cones.

                          My "videographer" panic'd after the 2nd correction thinking I was going off course.... nope.

                          Ran out the rest of the run for a 1:13. My best on the day was a 1:11

                              I was about 50 ft from that. Still don't know how you missed all those cones. I was surprized at how well the Lincoln did. 1:14 best time. Need to get rid of that body roll.
