Autocrossed on Sunday
6 speed helped a lot, but the car still feels much too heavy, although the 17 year old stock suspension has a lot to do with that.
Finished in the middle of the pack |

Re: Autocrossed on Sunday
Damn... I've been torn on whether I should leave my spoiler on or take it off, but that pic really shows the beauty of the clean no spoiler look on an Ebony. Might have to try that out, though I really need a paint job to get to that caliber.

Re: Autocrossed on Sunday
I've done very well in the past autocrossing my stock SVX. I could get the rear to rotate nicely when I needed it to, and I had ample power, just kept it in first gear most all of the time.

Re: Autocrossed on Sunday
I'm used to driving a fairly taut 98 impreza, so its a significant change for me, lol

Re: Autocrossed on Sunday
I have a '00 Impreza RS that I usually autocross, but the SVX is fun too!

Your car looks damn fine, though. We had an SCCA rally up here last weekend but once I saw that it was dirt I chickened out.

Re: Autocrossed on Sunday
when i autocrossed mine it was auto i found putting it in (D) it would down shift faster VS (2). i did get better times in (D) ... but if you doo put a tranny cooler cus after taking mine once it wouldn't shift above (2) after a kick down shift pass on the freeway, i let it sit for awhile running into the wind then it was fine. i sold it after that lol
