1st SCCA autox ever..

[90kacoupe]

My 1st scca autox was sunday. and omg.. that was amazingly fun. i have a huge list of things to work on. my main problem right now is being to quick on the throttle and i end up oversteering extremely bad. Idk why my car is doing this. but with the open diff i have, everytime a try any type of acceling during a turn my car steps out instantly like it has a welded diff. Somebody was telling me i may want to try to run with out my sway bar. but idk yet.

I dont think im gonna make any changes to the car untill i can drive it how it is. then i will start to make changes as needed. but here are some pics.

thanks for the complements. and yea 32 car novice field is huge. i have a drift events on the 3rd and after that im gonna start saving for a good set of autox tires. im having really bad traction problems. and even with my open diff i end up drifting all the turns.. would taking out the rear sway bar help at all??

[jmauld]

It should help you. It's easy to try. Just unhook one side of it, and leave the bar installed on the car.

I had a blast at my first event. Although, I killed my chassis and had to replace the car. Definitely going back for more.

How'd you kill your car at an autocross?

[a_ahmed]

i was just gona say how did u KILL the chassis and then have to replace it?!

[Abstrak0ne]

I don't know exactly how it happened but I developed a crack on my passenger side inner fender well that spread to my frame and around my strut tower. Pretty much had a 1 1/2 gap between my strut tower and frame. It was a freak accident. I can post pictures later.

Just bought a new car 240 to rebuild.
