I just out testing the car before the putnam race this weekend. for those of you wondering this is just stock boost with no gas in the car and a rear sway bar up on full stiff. this is obviously not how i usually run. for autocross on street tires i recommend 3/4 tank with the sway bar on full soft (st brand). overall had a blast as always left alot of smoke.

Bwahahah that 4th run made me giggle -- looks like you had a blast.


Looks like the car is fairly well-sorted too. I'd recommend some minor alignment changes to help with low-speed understeer, but you'd just want to change it again before going back to hpde's...

Looks like a lot of fun, you make autocross look so easy haha.

Did you beat the zx and s2k times? (I hate zx's and I'm just curious as to where you stand against an s2k haha)

After 5+ years of AutoX-ing MA70 ,I've learned one thing:

"Cony AutoX Course ... a great way to test your MK3 before getting it on the Track ,where it belongs !" :icon_wink
