Fixed.

Do they even allow larger vehicles like SUVs?

Trucks, SUV's, vans, and other vehicles w/ high centers of gravity are not allowed in autocross. There are some exceptions, like the Lightning, Syclone, and Typhoon... but that's because they're designed for this sort of thing.

The AS field is expanding. Watch channel 2 news for particulars.

I'm moving from STS to AS. I ran last weekend in Portland in the Oregon Region's 1st event of the year. The STi is just crazy fast compared to my old RS. Just a different animal. WOW!
I placed 47th in raw time, and 51st in PAX out of 151 total cars. Thats right, 151. Needless to say we only got 3 runs on a 46 second course and didn't get out of there until 5:30 that night. Still lots of fun.
I got beat by most of the STU STi's but beat most of the SM STi's. The STU PAX is actually better than AS, go figure?!

It's because AS is actually faster in raw time- when you run on hoosiers or V710s. Glad to hear you're digging the new car though.

I guess I could see that. I'm just gonna try to use that as an excuse to Heidi of why we NEED to modify my car.

Don't worry it's nothing big. I'm co-driving an AS car for a bit.

An up-until-now Subaru loyalist is jumping to the PFR Honda team to provide some competition in AS.

He pinched Kirsten Joyce's butt before the interview so she got mad and cancelled the spot.

Edit: Two minutes late!
