looks fast. what were the megans set at?

 

Low and stiff hahah.

 

ha - I guess I was asking if you adjusted them to firmer than what you run on the street

 

Stiff on the street and track. I do need to be corner balanced tho

 

I'm about to do my first autocross race this weekend. Just watching your video, I have to ask...how do you know where to go to stay on the "track?" I know you stay in the cones, but even then it looked like you could have gone other directions. I just don't want to be going the wrong way on the cone track when I go for the first time! lol

 

At legit autox event they will do a course walk before the racing, and this one they had a first timer course drive. I was worried about the same thing as this was my first time. If you don't spin out your cobalt you aren't trying hard enough

 

I hope they do that at the one I'm going to. I'm also going with a friend who has a SS/SC that has done it before, so he's going to help me out too. I'm pretty excited!

 

Haha it's a fun time! People are usually surprised when they see the times from a cobalt(as long as the driver is decent)

 

Hopefully I'm decent. I've never raced on a track before.

 

Gas, brake, dip lolol

 

No clutch?

 

Not really haha put it in 2nd and go lol

 

Oh, haha. I suppose that makes more sense.

 

Haha you'll be using the clutch. But in that video I was in 2nd the whole time, one run I tried using 1st too and it slowed me down.

 

I'm just interested to see if I can actually make myself push my car a little bit. Without breaking anything, of course. Hopefully.

 

Surprisingly I didn't break anything, I beat the **** out of my car lol

 

If I break anything, I'm a little screwed because it's my DD. But I don't see myself breaking anything if I'm stock.

 

Haha yeah you shouldn't, you'll have a lot of body roll tho, and that's never fun haha

 

I signed up for the races last night and I didn't know what class to pick for my car. What class is the SS/TC in?

 

They will tell you haha. I'm still not sure on my class haha I don't even care I just wanna attack cones
