My autox video

You guys helped me with info on the body roll and tire ?'s. Here is video of my run. I had a friend edit it. he edited three of my runs with different camera angles together. You can see how I was driving. Mabey give me some pointers on if its a speed track or a handling track (im not sure on this one). and what kinda things I should look for.

TB and IM might help in the lower revs, get you up to speed just a little bit faster. Best bet is to just keep at it, learn how the car handles and how it reacts.

Throttlebody, could always invest in a harness, keep you in the seat.

Yeah. Seats is something ive been thinking about as well. Do the lancers have any good harness bars available? Ill assume since evos share the same int any harness bar for an evo would work the same for a lancer?!?

atilla- its being shipped out tom. hopefully the shipping will go smoothly.

Yeah, Sparco and GSC have bars that'll work for the lancer. If you're just using the harnesses for autocross and have no plans on anything more serious, you don't really need a harness bar. I thought about doing the same thing when I got my ralliart seats (replaced with evo seats) but in the end I just got a schroth harness and bolted it up per the instructions.

i'd heard that the harness bars would work. it was something i talked about with one of the autox evo guys who was next to me at the convenience store two weeks ago.

oh, and if you can ship it out UPS they'd said they could definitely get it to me by the end of tuesday. woot. how was the trip by the way?

Ill have to look up a schroth harness. Never heard of it. It would only be for autox. harness's arnt to comfortable for daily driving. haha.

atilla- it will be shipped UPS. The trip was awsome. we got great video and plenty of pics. Saw some great scenery and some twisty roads. good time.

I have the rallye cross right now but I'm gonna upgrade to a set of rallye 4s cause they allow you to separate the front part from the rear, making it possible to have people in the back.

awsome. thanks for that link to the how-to. I was wondering how it would mount. Very cool harness for the not everyday racer. Not a bad price either.
