Contour Enthusiasts Group Archives Forums General Autocross and Open Track Contour SVT Rollover in AutoX

I've always had a dream of owning a go-cart track. But lack of mechanical aptitude and doubts about profitability thwart that idea.

The event organizers (and track owner)should have known better than to use such a track for full-sized cars in Solo II. It was literally an accident waiting to happen. Is yours the only car that has ever left course? I doubt that, and the fact that you were lowered should have made it even harder to roll...unless you had so much spring stiffness that it somehow contributed to the rollover???

I'm impressed that lowering and coilovers shaved 3 seconds off Buckshot's time, especially because the length of the course can't be that long, nor the corresponding lap time. That is probably a better time reduction than achievable with autocross tires which bodes well for similarly-equipped cars in STS.
