Awesome - It's all that good Karma he gives making all those plaques for people

Is the tape to keep the turn signals in?

They can pop out in the turns from what I hear..

Did you knock over all those cones? Just kidding. Nice pics.

RoadDad · 07-07-2007, 02:40 PM

Wayne, no matter what kind of times you ran, how many cones you did or did not knock over...

You looked maaaahvalus.

cory1000 · 07-07-2007, 02:57 PM

Didnt knock or hit any cones...Only other car in his class was a Corvette and Wayne was less the 2 seconds slower then him..There were 2 tracks setup so it was hard to remember both, he had to slow a bit to figure out what cones he was going for some of the time.. (sorry wayne, I figured I would answer..)

AND he looked maaaahvalus! Way to go Wayne. Hope you had a blast.

Just beautiful! Go Wayne Go!

EliseAtLeast · 07-07-2007, 04:40 PM

Nice going Wayne. Pics looks great.

TorsinADoc · 07-07-2007, 04:51 PM

Looks like it was fun. Eventually I will autocross my exige (when I purchase it) and I am more than sure I will get lost on the course, run over a few cones and spin it. I look forward to it!

waydui · 07-07-2007, 05:12 PM

Cory, thanks for posting the pics so fast!!

It was great you in the car. Sorry I went OC (Off Course) the first couple of runs, it was a bitch of a course to figure out!!

I had a blast, my son (13) was riding with me in the pics and he wants to do it again. He thinks I drive great, so whenever he wants, I'll take him.

For those of you who haven't done AuotX, give it a try. You'll be amazed at how much fun it is and how the car can really perform.

Regards,
Wayne

Heck I wish when I was 13 I had the opportunity to ride in a car like a lotus on a course with my dad. Thats pretty cool. Just hide the keys in a few years

SweetDaddyD · 07-07-2007, 06:15 PM

Glad to see the static #'s are holding up/working out

Surprised to see that much body roll. The course looks confusing.
Is that an SAE formula car behind you in the one pic?

Rei · 07-08-2007, 03:38 AM

What class are you running in is it A stock. That and vettes are very fast on the tracks autox or road course. Would I own a vette no but they are cool to look at. And those cones are not knocked over they are simply pointer cones. Wish I was at the track myself.

Blue Devil · 07-08-2007, 03:50 AM

Elises run in Super Stock, Rei just like the ZO6
The regular Elise looks so fun with those skinny front tires, 175s right?
Even mine with the 195's doesn't look like they belong on a car that pulls over 1g. It's all about the weight. My SS Camaro has 275's in the front and 315's on the back, BFG R1's and it can muster up a 1g hauling those steamrollers around. Nice pics from the autocross.
