SVXRIDE Triumphs at Autocross Today

Today, SVXRIDE had Fastest Time of the Day in my old Pearly - I want my car back, Bill!! He beat out by over a full second one Mercedes AMG and another by several seconds. The man was ON today, as was daughter, Lauren, who went from 95 plus sec to 73 sec by the end of the day. The lady is getting the hang of it! Well done, Lauren. And .... yeah, well done Bill - you too . You beat me again, this time by 5 sec with your 60 sec run.... Check out some photos and video HERE: http://s222.photobucket.com/user/new...?sort=2&page=1

Thanks, Harry!

With some help from OT and a couple of special touches of my own, your old Pearlie is starting to come together. Still a couple things I can do under the STX rules, just might not be able to get them in place and tested out before the current autoX season ends.

BTY, the Perlie was raising it's right rear wheel consistently in hard turns ... a sure sign those bigger tires are working!

Re: SVXRIDE Triumphs at Autocross Today

Harry - I noticed that a little in one of your pics (right = passenger side). I'm going to adjust the endlinks on the rear anti-swaybar before the next event.
Thanks again for all your advice, as well as John's. One of the things I've always appreciated about the autocross "family" is the willingness to help each other out 😎

Bill
