I placed first in the Detroit region SCCA spring fling autocross event. I was in TGS (street tire G stock) and beat out some pretty heavy hitters. I even beat a new VW GTI! I actually race one class above what I should actaully be in (should be in THS), but I don't mind because it is more competitive this way.

I will post the official results when I receive word that they have been posted on http://www.myautoevents.com.

Autocrossing is far more dependent on driver skill than horsepower. Suspension preparation also plays into acquiring good times, but ultimately it does boil down to the driver first and foremost.
