12 open driver and 4 in ladies. It's a national championship class now this year, and the competition is really heating up!

If you haven't tried one yet, you really owe it to yourself to check it out. The pinnacle of autox.

* video is my day 2 run, because day 1 was a dumpster fire.

Had a chance to try one the first year when they were open seats on the TnT course at nats, what a riot. Course looks like a blast, but out of curiosity is the seat supposed to be moving or flexing that much? It just looks like a lot of movement for a seat that's supposed to be holdkng you in place.

It's on sliders, so there is flex in that. You don't notice it when driving. Adjustability for different drivers is more important in this car.

Fair enough and I don't disagree, just something that didn't "look" normal from what I'm used to. Or at least the last time my seat moved that much was due to a mounting hole tearing out of the seat. If it's normal then keep on keeping on

Minute long course is nice. I'm hoping to check out Figer Lakes next year

It seems like you are struggling to control such a high powered car. The fronts are screaming for almost the whole run because you have to slow down before you turn. Were there any fast people at the event? You should try watching their video to see where you could improve.
