Thanks for the comments! Finally in the middle of my 2nd season I'm starting to figure this stuff out, but there was at least 3 places on the course I know I could have done better. I've got to figure out how to dial it in quicker.

BTW the trucks' closer to 4900 lbs once my 220 lbs slides into the seat. I have more weight on my 'nose' than most entire cars I compete against (3450lbs).

Last weekend we went and played with the St. Joseph Corvette club as guests at their autocross. Had to give them an SVT Experience laugh 26 Corvettes; 14 trailered. I came in 11th in the morning session and 14th in the afternoon session. Let's just say I was happier with my performance than they with theirs.

I've invited them all down for this Sundays' Arrowhead experience...some guy named Frasier is doing the course--ever heard of him? laugh
