I'm running in PhillySCCA NE Divisionals this weekend in my first divisional event in my first season of AutoX ever. I'm looking at the entry list, and it's me against 8 Mini Cooper S's... LOL
I just traded in my pre-AutoX Firestone Wide Ovals for some Potenza RE-01R's (still on my stock rims) since the last event, so I'm cautiously optimistic to make up a few seconds on the upgraded rubber. The RE-01R's are a marked improvement on the already decent Wide Ovals based on spirited street driving and exit-ramp bonzai runs. I'm looking forward to seeing how it handles this weekend. Only 140 out 250 possible registrations, so looks like 4 runs is probable on both Saturday and Sunday.
I believe the Cooper S's are getting bounced from G-stock next year, so perhaps things will be more balanced... In any case, the 'ol SVT is still the best sounding car in G-stock at WOT. ;-)
