IMS......6 .....Greg Shain............95 Acura Integra..White.....68.349....73
My son, Blair drove my red Roadster Sport to 6th (of cars with License plates) and within 1.336 seconds of the fastest cars in a field of about 73.
I finished about 30th for the 4th time ever in an autocross. What did I learn? Fixate on the next turn (gate) during your existing turn.
My roadster is running Hoosier A6's with the sway bars soft up front, firm in the back. Hawk racing brake pads. Turn off the traction control. Set the power level to performance. The battery was charged to standard setting (180 ideal miles). Don't charge any higher as there is no room in the battery for regenerative braking. Be smooth on the accelerator (I have overloaded the system and had to key off and key on again).
I plan to remove shims in the front to increase the negative camber. I will post how I did this when I am done. The reason to do this is for better cornering as I still fight off the (less than full throttle) understeer. Full throttle oversteer even with TC turned off is easily controled with your right foot. What a rush. My car is still SS legal.
This car is a blast to race and gets a lot of attention. The comments are "it's so quiet, and unbelievably fast".
