Yep, that was me dude. Thanks again for DTC tip for the autocross run, that helped a lot!

By the way, did you check out this link? They took quite a few pics of you during a couple of your runs

Yeah, you can go to nccautocross.com or check out the link below:

I had my best run with DSC and DTC completely off even though I was sliding all over the place. Looking forward to more runs next year.

Nice. My last three were with only pressing the DTC button for a short interval. So I'm guessing only DTC off. I am pretty happy with my times though, and the fact that I didn't hit any cones.

You should be pleased with your scores dude... you did better than some of those people that have been doing this for a VERY long time!

Damn sorry to hear that. I guarantee you that within a year or two, you will find a good excuse to go back to an e9x or better!

I went through something similar before.

It was me.

Too bad these cars egg you doing bad stuff, but, nothing beats giving the rear tires a healthy workout...

Nicely done! Did you replace those tires yet? You were on that skid pad quite a few times...

By the way, do you know if the guy in the RX-8 is part of this forum? This dude had fire coming out his exhaust!
