This past weekend I had a blast at Road America’s winter autocross event and even managed to secure a 3rd place finish overall! The car has an AA EL mid pipe and Pirelli Sottozero 3 winter tires.

Really nice driving. Are you left handed, out of curiosity?

No way! Small world. Were you in the f80? If so, the car looks great! What tires were you on? Are you attending the event in March?

Thanks! My wheel handling skills are so akward. 😬

I’m right handed but my previous fun cars have always been manual cars. I guess my left hand is more focused on the wheel while my right was focused on the shifter. I’m still getting used to how the wheel rebounds after a turn. Seems like you really need to help it unwind.

I was, thank you!! I am currently on Michelin PS4s but they just wouldn’t grip for anything! Even with 305 in the rear haha.

Unfortunately I am not but I am definitely hoping to get some more events under my belt this season. Especially since I just ordered new apex wheels haha.
