Whelp… I feel bad for taking the last spot in the challenge that should have been Dave’s. Also want to apologize to anyone who was distracted by my lights in the challenge. I just wanted to keep the car running as I forget to turn traction control off 100% of the time if I don’t. Car has auto lights so I turned those off when someone mentioned them, but then the silly DRL halos were still on and can’t be turned off, so then I turned the car around, but eventually I did have to drive up to the line with them on… Definitely wasn’t my intention to distract anyone but I’m not used to running at night 🙁

Despite all of that, I had a great time at my first TDS and want to thank everyone for putting on a great season. After taking a ~5 year break from autocross of any kind, it was great to remember having enough fun to make you get up early on a Saturday, though maybe not quite as early as I used to 😉
And just as before, seeing familiar faces and meeting new ones was the best part.

Hi Jeff,

Christian Duvivier #327 is still shown in B. He was driving his 370Z so should be in X.

Thanks!

[Peter Thana]

Thanks for posting the results Jeff!

In B Class, I think Christian was driving his 370Z, which isn’t quite a B Class car for a couple of reasons…

My last run. Embarrassingly messy but somehow my fastest at 47.708.

Yeah, sure. There’s a download link with all sizes including original. I tried it while logged out of Flickr and it seemed to work. If you have any issues let me know.

Thanks for the comments guys, I think this was the first time I’ve shot an autox with a DSLR or tried slow shutter speeds and panning. There was a fair bit of spray and pray going on but I was suprised a few of them came out ok

Ok, now that I know how to do this, here are the pics. Thanks guys!

Ok I give up – anyone know why the link function isn’t working for me and why I can’t seem to edit or delete my posts? This is getting kinda embarrasing 😉

[Peter Thana]

Sorry somehow the link didn’t show the first time:
