I looked at the entry sheet for the autocross this weekend in Everett, Washington. Looks like there is a Silver 2001 CL-S entered. Is that person from this site?

 

Yep, that's me. I signed up for the Novice PM class. I've never done this b/f so I wanted to make sure I get some pointers. My name is Tom...see ya up there!

 

BTW, should I swap out my 19" wheels w/ Yokohama Spec-2's for my stock wheels w/ Potenza SO3's??? I'm thinking the SO3's have more grip although the 35 series on the 19's may turn over less. What do ya think?

 

Sorry for not getting back to you sooner. I tried but the forums where down. I came a bit late but I did see your car. I should have said hi but I was in a rush to make the registration cut off. Made it with 2 mins to spare. The S03 are probably the better tire. I don't know about you but I got my butt kicked. That course was too killer for an autocross n00b like myself. My rear end got so loose. The rear tires on my s2000 are done now. You may have seen me cuz I also ran novice PM. I was the really slow S2000 in the first run. I missed a bunch of gates, hit a bunch of cones, and only had one clean run. But it was FUN!

Maybe I'll see ya at the next event, I want to see your supercharger.

 

I would recommend swapping your 19's for your stocks. Most people run on 17's ideally. I havent really paid attentions to see if anyone was on 18s, but im sure there have been.

This is from my event this past saturday. annual all nighter event.

nice pix, an all nighter event sounds awesome, how many runs did you get?

 

Actually, a buddy of mine was in town Friday and Saturday night. We partied late both nights and I didn't wake up Sunday until 11:30am. I didn't think I could make it to registration by noon so I didn't even go...kinda bummed. You must have seen someone else's CL there. Sounds like you had a good time though. I sure you're "slow" time would have still killed my fastest. The CL isn't exactly a corner-burning machine... See ya next time!

 

Standard Championship event...only 3
