autox

It looks like Chicago Volkswagen Organization won't be doing any AutoX events this summer. :( Chicago Volkswagen Organization - View topic - 2013 CVO State of Affairs Fortunately, Audi Club Chicago is still running AutoX, but those events may go away too if attendance isn't enough to sustain...

Just thought I would share some pics of my car being used to have fun in. I have a Mustang I usually AutoX with but my 15yr old wanted to do it so we have been using the Passat. Surprisingly it is pretty fun except for the Drive by wire throttle response is killing me.

just did the speedventures.com autoX event last week. it took place at one of the large parking lots inside California Speedway. Anyhow, it was a 2-day event w/ a course that ran approx 30-40 secs. Total cost for the 2 day event was $150 or $80 for one day. there were maybe anywhere from...

Heres a few pics its just a teaser i didnt like how the rest came out, plus it was cold, wet, and crappy out. matched with the crappy tires it was a good learning day. and a couple or scirocco78's new racer a 95 miata :banghead:

I can honestly say that these tires are not ment to auto-x on ;). i tried it on sunday and it was sad the tires just dont grip at all they just scream the entire time and smoke alot oh boy do they smoke. i know i shouldnt have used them but hey i didnt have time to get new tires and thought why...

My first auto-x in the passat. It was awesome, though my times sucked (overdriving).

My wife took this today and she got the cone I just pegged while it was still flying through the air! :lol: http://img530.imageshack.us/img530/609/dsc0085pw8.jpg

Im gonna autocross my car for the first time ever in a couple weeks, today i went to the ACCCC event in maywood,il and it was fun. Now im questioning what i should do to my suspension. after searching "reduce understeer" and such things for the last half hour or so i came up with this: I got...

I've come to the conclusion that I really need R-comps to compete in SM now. I piss off quite a few people by beating them in a Passat, but they get really mad when they see I'm on street tires :lol: I know that I'll go through multiple sets of R-comps for the season and that's a lot cash I...

I'm looking to upgrade my rims to either 17" or 18" and am wondering what the difference will be for Auto-X. Will 225/40-18 have much of a difference compared to 225/45-17s in regards to ride and drivability? Pete
