Went autocross with my Fit today........

I went to the VCMC Novice Championship Tour event today. Too bad I had to leave early coz it started to rain in Pitt Meadows & I didn't bring my rain gear(the club probably DNF'd all of my runs already coz I didn't "work" on course for the afternoon session). What a shame coz I used to be very prepared when I went autocross before. And I didn't bring ANY tools(only my tire pressure gauge), my lawn chair, rain gear & WATTTTTTTER! Argggggggh so stupid!

The course design that I ran today was pretty easy, but needs to be real smooth on the throttle & steering input in order to get a good result. Ran in the F/street prepared & my fastest time today was around 32.2sec. Might be the slowest time in the SP group lol!

After all the sports shocks & springs setup helped quite a bit. Turn in was relatively quick & the rear end rotated quite well too. I just hope I can find a Quaife LSD sometime soon!!!

sweetness man,too bad you had to bail

Yeah it's just stupid to go without rain gear & water etc. That's totally stupid when I have at least 3yrs of autocross experience myself. It's like going there without my helmet(I know they have loaners but I never use loaner helmets!).

Hope King Motorsport have the Quaife in stock!

It actually turns better than the EM1, although the civic does give a better pull out of the corner with the big final gear & LSD.....

I'm planning to do the same transmission work on the Fit sooner or later
