Talking Brought the ES out to Autocross again

For those of you who saw my other thread...

https://www.clublexus.com/forums/sho...hreadid=112951

I had pics of the ES in some Autocross action. Here is Part II. This will probably be my last run for a while as the car will be going into the shop in the next few weeks for repair of the front end (hood, headlights, foglights, bumper, etc). Fastest time of the day was brought in by a Prelude... 49 seconds. I was able to get a 56 second run.











I know, I know... Lots of body roll... But it's fun driving! I'm gonna run with my stock wheels next time, don't wanna waste up all my tire on the 18's.

Glad to see you had fun. I took my GS400 out to an autocross last season (I was into racing pretty heavy when I had a Miata). I got some strange looks and was just going out to test the car near its limits. I took it kind of easy and still ended up winning my class. Our club decides classes by engine displacement (usually only 5 or 6 different classes, not a big club). I beat a few Mustangs, Camaros, and Vettes. I think I'll do it again next weeked, first race of the year!

Heh, who cares about the people!

Sounds like your club is like mine.. This was only our second run and right now we only have 3 classes. RWD, FWD, and truck.. We should be expanding those as soon as we get more cars/people involved.
