Snowboarding....Because gravity is cheaper than gas
Default my auto-x battle

So this season in Wisconsin is shaping out to be a sweet one... there are 3 seperate auto-x venues running here so basically every weekend is a race to be had. The main battle is shaping up to be my wrx vs a toyota tundra supercharged pick-up truck. He is on race rubber and I'm on the Azenis. First race I took him by .63 of a sec, this past race he took me by .05 of a sec. Hopefully I can pull it all together and really dial in the car to beat this thing. Here are some pics that my younger brother took.

Nice. Are all the auto-x's SCCA Solo or are they different?

Don't let the truck beat you!

Nice! Glad you're having a good time out there man! I had that same kind of Super Close Battle fun with Sperry when he was driving Nkoan's car. There was a .02 secong margin one day! TONS of fun!

Nice,

but isn't that a Tacoma X-Runner, not a Tundra.

It's pretty sad when that truck is Toyota's fastest production vehicle on the showroom floors... considering they've built cars like the MR2, Supra, Celica, etc, in the past.

it says tundra on the tailgate... makes it pretty pathetic to lose to

All the Races are different.... there is the SCCA series, The WAI (Wisconsin Autocross Inc.) Series, and the TSSCC (Tri-State Sports Car Club) Series

he has immediate boost and race tires and looks sponsored unless the guy is a complete ricer (with a tundra WTF?) i wouldn't be too mad about losing but thats just me.

just gives you more motivation to kick his ass.
