Sunday's autocross (or hot-o-cross, > 90F day)
The renegade miata group sets up great challenging courses given the area we have to work with. Run 6, 23Mb full-size mpeg-1 Reasonably-modified miatas have been comparable to reasonably-modified 914's in times mostly. Enjoy |

When one shows +0.5 shouldnt the other show a forge of -0.5? some times they are way off (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) |

Probably a couple of spots where 3rd gear would have been a better choice than riding out 2nd. Guess that's where my flipped ZD 3rd come in handy.
Yup just watched it again, there would have been several spots I would have shifted. Faster speed and higher G's. What was your peak Lateral G? couldn't make it out. |

Nice! But I don't know how you know where to go - or how the corner workers can keep track if you miss a cone or skip a turn.
Around here, people get their panties in a bunch if the course isn't fully lined and chalked!! Demick |

Agreed, I hate it when there is so much going on with "course decoration" that it becomes difficult to find the key cones to turn off of.
I would love a chance to drive that course it looks like a hoot. Specially with more BWWWHHHHAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!! going on. |

QUOTE Probably a couple of spots where 3rd gear would have been a better choice than riding out 2nd. .. What was your peak Lateral G? couldn't make it out. You're right, but I get into trouble downshifting again when there's almost no 'straight line' braking. Tend to spin. I have to mount the box better to get the g-forces to not record every pebble. Right now I use a magnet on the passenger floorboard. That area is flexy. |

But there's no forward acceleration in 914's (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |
