This past weekend we had another in a series of autocrosses sponsored by the Greater Washington Section of the Mercedes Benz Club of America. Check out the schedules, etc, for driving events at www.gws-mbca.org. Results are at http://www.gws-mbca.org/ax/ax-08/ax08-3.html

I was the only SVX and only one of two Subarus running - the other was a STi, which always runs strong. The fastest time of the day was a VERY modified Honda Civic, running 60.5 sec. This was a VERY long course. My best time for the day was 67.9 sec (135K miles with original shocks). There were two figure eights, a 34 ft skidpad and two slaloms - a Z06 Corvette had a 62 sec run, a supercharged Mustang Cobra had a 62 sec run and our friend RUFUS in his Porsche also was running in the 62 sec arena.

It was a good time with beautiful weather......
