Trailer hitch is completely legal. A lot of people have little utility trailers to get there autox wheels/tires to the event. Quote:

As far as pads go I'd recommend Ferodo DS2500 pads.

Be careful. Autox can be a very addictive and expensive hobby.

My highest priorities right now are taking care of grip and body roll. Researching now if 245/275 tires might fit my base rims. Koni yellows are going through the home approval process, but I had to concede the CF paddle shifters.

Here's video from our first points autox event of the year. I think the 370Z can still be competitive even though it's moved up into B Street last year. It might depend on the course. We have several drivers who run corvettes and S2000s in BS in my region, several of whom are nationally competitive. I guess we'll see as the year progresses.
1st in BS, 3rd PAX of 131. https://youtu.be/m3Krt2dmweg |

Hi, I have been lurking for quite a while. I have a 2015 Nismo. I am running it at the El Toro Pro Solo this weekend. Up against the fastest Z06 guys in the country in A Street. I didn't see any other 370's on the roster. Anyone showing up?

Strano, Pozzi, and Peters; yeah, you're screwed. It's still a damn good time though.

I'll watch any video you post but just the thought of going against those Z06 guys... ::shudder::
I can't even beat the S2000s in my class right now. Got front sway, re-11s at 245/275, and plans for konis in the future but I figure I should torture my stock 225/245 tires as much as possible. Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk |

Hey guys/girls
My first ever AutoX competition will be this Sunday in Nebraska. I am signed up for the starting line school as part of a sponsorship from the SCCA to the motorsports team, part of this school is entrance into the AutoX event on Sunday. I have read about 25 of the pages from this post, some in the front side, some in the back. does anybody have a solid list of tips for a first timer that are Z specific? like a summary of the things you've learned, dos and don'ts etc. Thanks!

General autocross tips. Walk the course 3 times at least (requires arriving early). As you're walking it, think about where you'll be looking when you're at that spot during your run. This will help you recognize where you are when you're at speed. Smooth is fast, yes maybe, but that doesn't mean you can't turn the wheel fast (for example, in a tight/offset slalom). Try to get rides with fast drivers in similar cars. |
