got smoked by a couple of hondas I see.

 

Good job. fastest subie of the lot. oldest one too.

Actually, there was an STi in ESP that set FTD...45 some odd seconds i think...or was it 42..?

 

I'll post the rest up tonihgt...there was A TON of ppl out.

 

The Civic that mr Osgood drove had wider rubber, Koni's on it, a GSR swap with a turbo and Air/Water IC setup, full engine management...and a NICE LSD in the front.

Nice driving. My guess is it was a fairly tight course as Honda's that are set up properly do well on 'em. You can always tell when the local SCCA Honda drivers set up the courses as they finish better. My test is how close I can come to a properly set up mini. If I'm within a second to 1.5 sec. It was a good day.

Here's the rest of the results:

Actually this course was VERY wide open. Atlanta has a HUGE lot to work with.

 

At CCR and Triad, the courses have been not so high speed, very tight and technical and the Civics could not get the power down (main competition locally is a NA built civic, and one with a supercharger build, both with very good setups on them) and I've been able to beat them slightly at first...then I have started outrunning them by 0.5 seconds and more now.

 

The ATL course is very nice pavement...only one spot with a washboard zone...the rest was high speed and VERY flowing...a national level course. I had never been on a course that high speed with the RX, the RX (along with the loose nut behind the wheel :-p ) is setup for the tight stuff...read: 2 inch dia undersized race rubber, ULTRA no-lag setup, and in low range its ALWAYS in the power. This course I should have gone with a stock size, i could have used 225/45/15's and gone in low still and been about 2 seconds faster alone from that.

 

HOWEVER...if I had been able to nail the course, which i didnt, i could have got within 1 second of the BMW, if not faster than him.

And then...the thread died.
