Western WA Auto-Xing?

Hey, this s my first post, but I was curious if anyone in western washington was going to the Auto-X in Bremerton on Nov 2? I have never gone to anything like this. Looks fun, would just like to meet up with someone, maybe show me the ropes. Check out someones 7th Gen. Let me know. Peace.

NWhonda=ghey


Anyways I might be making the trip from Edmonds to Bremerton on Nov 2nd with a buddy of mine's supercharged GSR I think I'll just be watching. Somethings you'll need to remember is to take everything out of your car. Make sure your battery tie down is on there tight, wheel bearings are ok (pull your wheel abck and forth and make sure there is no play), make sure you bring shoe polish to put your class and number on your window. If it's raining it's going to be a bitch to keep that **** on lol Anyways hope to see you tehr

I might show up there, provided I don't have to work or anything... though it will be my first autox, and I'll be running mostly stock... I have a short shifter and a Neuspeed front upper strut bar.

Nice, well i still plan on showing up, unless something else comes up. But i've been pretty pumped to try it. All I have is a short shifter, so stock for me. How do you like your Neuspeed strut bar? I was thinking of getting one myself, I put in the ProCarParts cheap strut bar in my dads corolla and it made a big difference. Thinking I will get front and rear at the same time. Just not sure if i want to go the cheaper route.

Technicly the short shifter bumps you out of stock....... You probably wouldn't get protested, but to play it safe and don't tell anyone about it.

have fun, thats the point afterall.

I would never "go cheap" since in the world of automotive parts, you get what you pay for, why by something that's cheap, then turn around and sell it so you can get the better and more expensive one later?

I might show up if its not raining. Probably won't run though. What time does it start? Last time I went I showed up at the very end of it.

The Autox Was pretty fun, I got my *** handed to me though, My times were as follows

Run 1: 70.XXX + 1 missed Gate
Run 2: 67.XXX + 2 missed Gates
Run 3: 65.XXX CLEAN RUN (YEAH BABY)

I was in the 2nd running group, which was a good thing since the 1st running group had some snow to deal with...

I figure I probably would've done much better had I not been on BALD FIRESTONES, I still had fun despite the fact that I froze my *** off for like an hour and a half. It was snowing pretty hard during the first group, during my group it was a light drissle of rain, but the track was still soaked.

A lotta people spun out, one guy in a m3 spun out at the finish and took out like 12 cones....

The best of the day was like a 51.xxx I think but that was near the end of the AM group when the sun actually came out and the track started drying up. I post the times when they post them up on the webpage.

This season is done, and yes, it was VERY slick out today, as far as the next one, i'm sure it'll be in march or april sometime.

Here are all the times from the day, the 2nd run group had a big advantage over the 1st, since they had a much dryer (though still really wet) track.. The first group had snow to deal with...

I'm #959, way down in sts, I should've been in novice since it was my first time... but oh well, doesn't really matter, I'm happy with my improvement over the 3 runs. I did happen to only come in 2 seconds behind a novice m3 though...
