Race Day Comparisons! (PLEASE KEEP UPDATED!!)

robbclark1 · 04-13-2004

Ok here are the rules. You post the date, your 3-4 run tims, your class and what number you placed in your class. Each time you race you go back to your ORIGINAL Post and edit it to include the new race. If you post more than once in this thread, you will be banned immediately

! haha.

At the end of the season we can compare PAX scores. And we will have a good comparison at the end of the season so we can talk about different things to change over the winter.

Road racers are welcome to post in here too but must abide by the same rules

.

April 18th:
1) 69.836
2) O.C.
3) 67.313
4) 67.123
Placed 18 out of 19 in STS

May 8th:
1) 66.702
2) O.C.
3) 60.242
4) 60.207
Placed 22 out of 26 in STS
Remarks: First race on Azenis and had to get used to them. Now I can oversteer!

Still getting used to them and all the little adjustments you have to make in between runs. Changed dampening to help with the oversteer and it helped. It was a fast course and I kept bouncing off the rev limiter, but overall I didn't finish last!!

June 13th:
1) 65.795
2) 61.133
3) 60.595
4) 60.199
Placed 22 out of 26 in STS (at least I am consistant!)

July 11th
1) 84.619
2) 80.521
3) O.C.
4) 80.397
Placed 27th out of 28.

Took off neuspeed X brace and understeers a hell of a lot. hmmm.

August 8th
1) 77.468
2) 68.108
3) 66.648
4) 67.139
Placed 20th out of 31.

Still understeering but I think I did pretty well. I need to either 1) get a smaller front sway bar or 2) get a larger rear sway bar. I am leaning towards 1 because it is cheaper.

April 18th Everett-Boeing Course
NOV AM Class, Placed 2nd out of 29

57.086 (0,1) + 10 = 67.086 - Totally biffed a gate
45.274 (0,0) - clean run - upped tire pressures to 45psi from 40
44.005 (0,0) - clean run
43.468 (0,0) - clean run

Comments: The Kumho Ecsta MX tire is incomparable to the stock tread of the RSX. With the stock new tread I could run solid midpack with the other novices - the new tires really make the difference.

June 6th, 2003 Everett-Boeing Course (WWSCC event)
Street Tire 1 group, placed 8th out of 12

(Note: I classed myself improperly as Dstock rather than Gstock for indexing purposes, so I lost a spot because of that. By properly indexed time, I should have been 7th.)

[55.940] - great first run
[60.417] - nailed two cones
[56.545] - Clean run, getting back into it
[55.609] - .34 second improvement over my first run

I wasn't feeling the car as well on this one, still overdriving the front tires to the point of them rolling over a lot even at 46psi. Pretty soon the car is gonna get a much needed agressive alignment (1.5 degrees of camber in the front hopefully using the crash bolts) and some brake work. I'm not dissappointed with an 8th place finish when it's my 5th autocross, that's for sure.

Full results: http://www.wwscc.org/event_results/2004/wwscc04-2.html

PS - I would have taken second in Novice, so I can't complain too much

10th out of 10 in HS with no cones. I'm not able to cut as much time as before, and I've pretty much reached the limit of the stock Firestones. The car understeers like a mofo and I'm again 10 seconds behind the leader. Time for some Azenis.
