Remind me to bring a weed eater next time, too.

Ppeeewww. That was a fast track. Fastest I have ever done for autocross. The slalom wasn’t as bad as expected, but we were right, you don’t set that up correctly and you are done. I think I got it right maybe twice. It was a long day, but fun. Pics and video coming soon. View attachment 29201

Goblin, goblin, goblin, Lotus……..

Great weekend!

Dc. What tires are you running? I’m a firm believer that anything over 200tw is an accident waiting to happen. I use the Toyo rzzr’s. And although I can get to slide and spin, it’s very controllable. I’m running 13psi rear and 11 front at autocross. The rear sway bar does help a good bit (Jason...

Man that looks like fun! I need to come down there and race with y'all sometime.

Sweet, my one autocross experience (so far) was a much slower track layout even incorporating a figure 8 in the layout. Can't wait until next season to try it again.

Come on down and join the gaggle of goblins

I would like to take a moment of silence for Mr. Cone. His sacrifice was not unnoticed…….they called it in and I got a penalty.

RIP little buddy

RIP, I am so glad I wasn’t a corner worker for the MASSIVE heat 1, I would have been dead working some of those corners

Listening to the radio while working grid, there was a lot of dnf’s on 3 and cones on 5 (Slalom).

 

[Rttoys]

Loaded my best run of the day, which was my last run.

We would love to host you or anyone else interested.

If your not wanting to spend GoPro money, Akaso on Amazon ain't too bad on picture quality and price. You wont cry if it happens to fall off the car and run over it.

That location looks awesome and really fast layout!

To be honest, I’m not a fan, but it’s just about the only option, other than knockoffs. I ran Sony contour‘s for about 15 years And they were awesome. I have broke 2 in crashes and lost 1 down pikes peak. I have 2 more that have gone whonky so I had to find something new, so I ended up with the GoPro 9. I “like” it, but don’t love it.

So much fun!!!!!

Here's my report:

Bill's Street/Track Goblin - 2007 SS/SC - Chassis #204

Thanks but I've already purchased the materials for mine. It's going to have a few custom touches. :) A Ramblin' Wreck on the top probably........... ;)

I see y’all are registered for the January 2nd event, y’all are going to go?!?

 

[Rttoys]

Yep. Adding snow tires to the goblin. Gonna be cold. Of course it’s gonna be 80 the day before. 50* drop in 12 hours is always fun, but that’s Texas.

 

[Classy]

I’m out on that one! Too cold, too windy, plus I am not finished changing stuff yet

 

[Rttoys]

I’m not exactly overly excited about Sunday with the weather, but I need to test a few things, so going to make the best of it.
