i've always wanted to do some autoXing, but not in my pos maxi. wish there was more after market support and maybe there wouldnt be so much body roll in the pics. NOT BASHING just stating my opinion, but none the less regardless of the type of car you use i bet autoX is MUCHO FUN...

well, body roll is all dependent on how stiff of springs you use. I didn't use very stiff springs only because it was my daily driver. But slap some 400lb rates on there and you won't have much roll at all...

true, there were a number of very good drivers (including a few of the top STX/STU Subaru guys) there.

The ferrari, on the other hand.....he was actually in my class, and I beat him (and his co-driver) pretty badly. They're autocross noobs and were having a tough time handling the car in the tight confines.
