First Auto X in the WRX.

[KRowe]

Just had my first taste of auto x this weekend.. I honestly may go back, it was a blast.

What are you driving? Specs

[KRowe]

Pardon the lack of details.

2011 WRX, Stock except for cobb sf with airbox and stage 1 map.

[scarmack]

That's pretty sweet. How many miles you have on it?

[KRowe]

About 9000 or so.

Also dude, I just saw your updates page.. Holy crap! I first signed up when you did a step by step of your photoshop. The progress is insane.

Haha thanks. Still have a lot up my sleeves, just waiting for the funds to slowly build back up.

Its very addicting

[KRowe]

Indeed, yea. I'm building funds and my want list... Gonna go for more of a very very mild track/street setup.

[scarmack]

haha yeah, I kind of went the opposite direction and regret not doing the suspension first. But hey, I'll get there

[KRowe]

Yes sir! I'll check your build thread to see how much you are dynoing now.

What class do the new WRX compete in?

Back when the Bugeyes came out, they were dominant in STX but I think the classes have become more competitive over the years...

[KRowe]

I'm in class G, stock tires. SCCA class DS. No mods right now so I don't qualify for anything else.

I've been thinking of trying auto x. But I feel like I won't know where the hell to turn next and drive right off the damn course lol.

[KRowe]

Yea, I went into it with the same thought; it's different from track racing, different set of skills, but it's really a lot of fun. I only push 100% for a few runs because it does destroy tires.
