Here are a few videos from this past weekends event. The first one I was riding with an instructor and got the car sideways in third gear The other two are a couple of my better runs. One from Saturday and then the course in reverse on Sunday. I was running on Toyo RA-1 255/40-17 tires. Sorry for the wind noise. I need to find a mic shield for my camera. Right clicking and doing a "save as" will prevent any buffering problems with media player.

The car held up to all the abuse I could dish out thanks to Buschur Racing and Exedy.

 

yo from wat i can see thats pretty awesome handling real nice driving man i wish i could drive like that later on...lol major props on those vids...lol that was pretty sick though i had to say it again...lol

 

Thanks! I wasn't driving my best this past weekend and there are a few things I could have definitely improved upon. I can't wait to get more rubber under the car and then the videos should really get sick Whenever I would hit the gas the torque was ripping the tires loose. Half the time I felt like I was trying out for a dift competition

 

Thanks for posting the videos....they're awesome!

 

is that the sound of the wastegate or the BOV?

 

Damn, awesome lot and layout! Youre car looks damn fast.

But um, why steering with 1 hand.....

 

It's the BOV.

 

Um...cuz I'm a drag racer turned Solo nut I'm working on two hand driving because it is the proper way to drive and with my bad left shoulder it should help me even more than most. I have a hard time driving for 60 seconds right now let alone going out on a road course for 30 - 45 minutes which is what I really would like to do at some point but the pain will be worth it! This course had numerous shift points in it so I could take my right hand off the wheel and be doing the right thing once in awhile

PS. I checked out a picture of your Subi and with your mod list how is it that you are in AS?

 

Nice driving!!

 

Ok, I gotcha, well I hope you can manage to get used to 2 hand driving with that bad shoulder, thats gotta suck. But anyway, keeping my hands 9 and 3 really helped me reduce sawing at the wheel, and etc.

But anyway, I love that course design and whatnot. Oh and my car isnt AStock anymore, its STU - and my silly mod list isnt quite right anymore, I am too lazy to change it, heh.

Anyway, its great to see incar, its a great resource

 

Not bad for starter. You will be suprised how much faster you can go with a little more patient. Don't let the boost get over your head, it's very easier to overdrive a high hp car. Patient, patient, patient . Nice video and thanks for sharing.

 

Modlist please?

 

Yeah the shoulder does really suck. I am hoping that eventually it will get better but the doctors are saying no so road racing may never be an option I do have a tendency to jerk the wheel with one hand so driving with two should really help with that. I appreciate the input. The course was blast.

 

I appreciate the feedback. Including the last couple of events I think that is the 15th Solo event I have been at in the last two years. I have learned so much and have made alot of friends. It is great! I have been driving in a 01 four door Focus for most of the events as it has been much easier to learn in an HS car. It is hard to not drive the EVO though as it is so much fun!!

 

I have the Buschur stage 4 with a race FMIC, BR20G9-5, Revolver 264 cams, Exedy clutch, AEM EMS, Apexi N1 coilovers, BR strut bar, BR rear sway bar, Gram Light 57F 17x8.5, and Toyo RA-1 255/40-17's.
