just a link

havent had a chance to read it yet as i am waiting for my class to start

 

I watched the video. I like the serious deformation of the tire sidewalls. Ewww.

 

I'll post here what I posted there. Basically what I have suspected all along. The TSX is just too big and heavy for the tight turns in autocross. The TSX is more suited to an open race track with longer sweeping turns and that is where I think its great chassis and suspension would really shine. For autocross you want to be as small and as light as possible ... like a go-cart.

The TSX also needs a thicker rear sway and an LSD!

 

In the article he states that if he had better tires that it would of had a much better time. As it was he did better than a mustang, and mini cooper.

However I do agree that the rear sway bar sucks. I'm hoping to save enough soon to have it replaced.

 

Those results look pretrty good to me. 47.3 seconds which would be 1.5 sec better with good tires. I understand it may not be well suited to autocross but it beat a Mini Copper S and a Mustang, thats pretty impressive IMO.

 

Those tires look like they could use some more air

 

This is pretty much my opinion too. When I bought the car I thought that it might work for this season's auto-x but I'm thinking it's just not quite right. I'll probably end up buying an old CRX as a track car and keep the TSX for the daily commute.

 

Great video by the way!
