What Is Autocross // Gears and Gasoline 

That's terrible. Drive it daily or get a Prius

ur car is sick asf! im getting into autocross with my 17 si and cant wait for next week lol

​@@diptarupghosh4431 how'd it go?

@elnollie it was awesome! I set down some pretty good times, especially being on all seasons. Car had plenty more potential to brake later and I could have taken better lines, but it was good experience

@@diptarupghosh4431 that’s great! Glad to hear it. I’m planning on doing my first auto cross event soon! Any last minute tips you wish someone would have told you before you went?

:D

That's the one with the Boxer 4 Rotor VTEC engine, yeah?

Gavin Carney I think you meant rotary not rotor.

I meant rotor, It's a boxer engine with 4 rotors.

That’ll never match the speed of my Boss 392 Corvette GTB.

Good_Lord that old man doesn't look like he would put up a fight...

Good_Lord Looks like a kit car with american power and a lotus 7 rear end.

It's a lotus 7 clone with an S2000 engine. It's also ridiculous amounts of fun.

haha, autocrossfit? Do show up early to the event. They should do a novice walk of the course, which you should do. Be humble: autocross is totally different from other types of hpdes. Even if you track, it'll take a lot of getting used to.

And its a lot of fun

its probably everywhere in Europe. I was confused when I saw title of the video autocross and its just basically slalom around the cones

I've seen people autocross with a 85 Toyota Tercel with all season tires. Leaning so hard in the corners that I thought it was gonna flip. I was laughing so hard. Also seen a early 90s 7 series. Huge boat of a car. These videos make it seem like it's all about competition. It is and isn't. You can sign up to race in the FR class. Fun Run. Any car can go there in that class and just do what the class says. Have fun. As soon as you start modifying your car you really have to pay attention to what you can do to it to stay within the class that you're in. 1 incorrect modification can put you in the next class and all of a sudden you're at the bottom. Basically just go out with what you got and have fun and get good. Tires won't make you a better driver. Practice will.

I wonder how the dollar to seat time ratio compares to an actual track day. I've never done a car track day. Only auto/rally cross. $45 seems like a pretty good deal. Especially considering the friends I've made.

Kris Hamilton $/per driving minute for a track day beats autox for sure. But the overall costs to do a track day is significantly more especially most track days are two days event so you have to factor in travel/gas/hotels etc. Having said that, there are some serious autoxer that travels around the country to compete in the National events. And when you get to that point, then the gap between the two are all of a sudden much closer and track days seem to make more sense. The sports are very different, both are thrilling but autox (and perhaps karting) is definitely a cheaper way to get into motorsports for fun and for driving development. IMO there is no argument to this fact. Of course, there are autoxer or track day guys that think one is definitely better than the other but I think those are the guys who either haven't done both or just can't see the goods in both sports.

outside of japan, that is.

Thank god i read this before I made a cheeky remark haha

apex128 a crx is a civic

apex128 I mean, technically.. But we all know the real answer...

yes it is

+Tyler Dowd Tuner Cult

Yep and you will not regret it. Bring what you have and love every bit of it.

sa blay

Depends on the group, but SCCA (Sport Car Club of America) doesn't allow anything with less than 4 wheels.

+Alex Rei Most of the in car shots were with a standard gopro suction cup, but the shot with Ben in the car was with a Manfrotto 241FB Suction Cup + 056 Head.

Guess what the "C" in CRX stands for? Yep...Civic.

A CRX is also a Civic. You can find those statements on internet. They were actually the very same Civic but different body style and some not-shared parts.

All Time Productions Not sure if you being sarcastic or serious.

tommy d u b b s u the type of guy to wear suits to track days?

What do you drive good sir?
