(I've been out of town most of last week, just catching up...)
Last weekend was my best car weekend ever. This coming weekend will top that, I'm sure. Friday and Saturday are Evolution stage I and II for me, and Sunday is another Solo II event.
Andy was a wonderful instructor. He even came over to each of us after our timed runs on Sunday to give some more advice. Above and beyond.
I drive my car daily (now that I have it back again...) and I just do the usual maintenance. I did put on a set of Koni adjustable struts and new plugs and wires. Oh, and that transmission thingie too.
I have only run two events plus a day of school in the car, so I can't really address how it holds up under autocross. My front tires are almost shot, so I'll be replacing them soon most likely. Hopefully the weather for the rest of the year will allow me to run my r-tires. I picked up a set of rims w/used BFG R-1s here at contour.org so I can stay in stock class and hopefully have a lot of fun. I'm planning on burning through those tires this weekend and getting a new set right away. Gotta decide what tires to get though. Time to give Keith a call, perhaps.
