Im actually the opposite. My first time autocrossing last weekend, After i got the hang of it towards the end it was less frustrating and more enjoyable. Ive done drag racing for past 2yrs and i guess i got bored of it lol. Autocross is badass, its k1 racing on crack. All i need is a track suspension to keep up with all these big dogs! Haha

Autocross is great, road course is awesome, drag racing to me is eh. Buying more parts only does so much, seat time is key. Plenty of events this year so be prepared for tires

Before you start buying parts, get more seat time...

lbheat · 03-31-2014, 01:44 PM

Oh theres no way i can buy track parts right now after all the unnecessary mods i just bought. But i will expect at least 1 part to break after putting it on the track one more time. So im sure next money spent will be on a repair. I feel a vibration when turning wheel at low speeds.

Really. I've never had a bigger rush in my car than doing the drag strip.
