Is anyone racing their cars anymore??
For the past few months I haven't seen many threads at all about racing experiences on this forum. What's up guys? Doesn't anyone hit the track anymore and have no experiences/pics/slips/vids to share? Is everyone waiting on colder weather or maybe cobb stage 2? don't get it at all

Going to AutoX tomorrow. Drag racing is not for me.

let's get some vids going man, gopro and shit i miss Mr.5's vids every once in a while, that was good stuff...vas, you have a cam?
Respect to Big Tom! He's the only one pulling through and in a major way too... i get a feeling that ppl don't end up posting as they're not braking any records as if that mattered much really...its just nice to see the action going on more instead of the daily my turbo is smoking BS posts and this/that about the catch cans lol |

awesome man! let's keep the action going in here...i'm sure everyone's tired of hearing about which FMIC is better/cheaper and if a BOV is better than forge diverter valves i'm seriously craving seeing way more action

Go-Pro is ready and charged. Have a bunch of videos from previous AutoX events and some photos too, but I need to organize them in a collection first.
Here are some pics from my last AutoX. Took first place in X1 class that day. I'll try to dig up some pics to post...

Lately I only see potential races in my truck, but yesterday I caught an AMG v12 biturbo sedan at the light. Both of us took off lazily and he punched it first, me soon after, but he really went sideways when boost hit (i guess) so I braked since the curb was to my left... i was pissed... very curious what the outcome would have been.

Here are a few more from the same event but the afternoon session (better lap times):
Over-cooked it at the stop box a bit:

I got a date or 2 planned for Gingerman once my meth logging proves I'm good to go. I think my stock brakes will keep things pretty tame though.
