today as some of you may know i went to a rally x in wisconsin. it was my first ever event. im not sure on my official ranking.. my best time was 41.13 and the best overall time was 38.8 so i think i did pretty decet.. maybe 5th or 6th out of 17 cars. for being on bald re92s i think i did pretty well.. anyway here are some pics...AND a video
congrats man. I would like to do that sometime. I am guessing they are getting fewer and fewer as the winter gets closer. Are there any in the winter?
i know there having one early oct in the exact same spot.. the event was amazing everyone worked really hard and we saw some great driving.. ill post more when the next even comes.. ull deffinatly see me there
$30 some of the scoobys in the pics said they used to be in the club but none are really active anymore.. i convinced a few of them to check it out again.. but yeah next even WE ROLL
I was there Hey, where are my pics? I got second in my class with the silver '01 RS sedan on Goodyear Eagle F1 GSD3s. I woke up too late to put the Blizzaks on. There were also three photography pros there shooting and I'm hoping they have more action to show. The RallyX was near Hammond, WI. A bit east of River Falls. It was 16 miles east from the border on 94, then about 14 miles north and east. The new site is awesome, since it's inside a gravel pit with good viewing locations from above on every side. The next event is there on Oct. 30.
It was a brand new site for us. It's at the corner of county road T and hwy 64. We usually go to either Corcoran, MN, Arkansaw, WI (yes, that's how it's spelled), or Princeton, MN. As I said, we'll be at Hammond again on Oct. 30.
hey sorry i couldnt snap any pictures of you in action, i was in the same run group as you so i think i only got one.. can you send me or post a link to the final results and pictures..
There aren't any more pictures of your car up yet that I've seen, but you should watch that thread. That one picture came from the Audi Autox guy in our class. There should be more pictures up later from the serious photographers that were there. Full results aren't posted yet. You should join the Rally-MN Yahoo group if you want to see them the moment they're posted. http://www.specialstage.com/dc/dcboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=241&topic_id=3810&mesg_id=3810&page=
So what is the typical condition of the courses? Any major worries about tearing something off the bottom of your car? I'm running stock suspension and could throw on my winter tires and come to play.
it was a torn up grass feild with some smaller stones. we walk the corse after every heat and check for rocks and stuff.. al 3 audis that were there lost a skid plate.. i was in my stock RS with stock suspension and stock bald tires and i did fine
That's exactly what I'd be concerned about. Tearing something off the bottom of my car. I might have to either get some skid plates or stick to the tarmac.
The Audis were the only ones to lose their skidplates and at least one had been rallycrossing for years without it happening. Everything thought it was a quirk related to how badly Audi attaches their CF skidplates and that it was simply this new course. Someone said I bottomed out the Subaru at least once this time. I didn't notice any new paint damage though. If you really want skidplates, here are the nice ones the rally guys use: http://www.writerguy.com/primitive/skid.htm
