Here is a video of the event at PCA-NNJR. A fellow (Nathan) who I'll meet soon shot some real neat video. Here is the link, and well worth watching:

Nice video! I used to autox a lot when I lived in South Carolina many years ago. I had a '91 MR2 NA. Great car. I typically won my class, or spun

What's with the different colored cones???? I found the cream colored cones very hard to pick up in the video. Was it that difficult in person as well? What's the logic in using the different colors? I haven't autox'ed in years so forgive me if this is the latest trend.

Take care,
Jack

Jack, NNJR uses the yellow cones to confuse the experienced drivers, but is an easy teaching tool......"yellow cones to your left and orange ones to your right". There has been a lot of discussion in the forum about the yellow cones, and the present AX chair agreed for them to be changed, but not under his tenure. All other venues use just the orange cones.
In the video, mine is the red 911 with the yellow carrera stripe on the side. This is realy the first video I have seen of my car actually moving. I can see how the car behaves under different imput. With the square tire set-up, the tail was just too happy at that event.
You actually FIT into that MR-2? Or more like.......ON the MR-2? that car is just a hair bigger than a Fiat X 1/9!hock:
