New suspension, corner balance, and alignment

Posted 09-07-2011 at 10:32 AM by snowborder714 (Road Race/Autox '95 GST Blog)

I figured this would be some good information to post since I haven't made a blog in a while. I pieced together a set of DG coilovers a while ago (Nov. 2010) and am just now getting around to installing them. It's been hard knowing they're sitting in my house and not on my car for that long, but I wanted to do everything right when I put them on. This included installing SPC upper control arms...

HyperFest '10 - NASA HPDE 1

Posted 06-27-2010 at 12:38 PM by snowborder714 (Road Race/Autox '95 GST Blog)
Updated 06-28-2010 at 10:07 PM by snowborder714

I attended HyperFest on June 19th-20th at Summit Point Motorsports Park in West Virginia. We would be running on Summit Point Main course. This was my first time out on a road course. I had done a couple autox's and a drag event, so I had some track experience with the car before this. But this is completely different as you're pushing your car hard for 20 minutes straight. My brother and I felt...

Carlisle Performance & Style Autox - 5/7/2010

Posted 05-10-2010 at 09:29 PM by snowborder714 (Road Race/Autox '95 GST Blog)
Updated 05-17-2011 at 10:12 AM by snowborder714

This was the first autox of the season I was able to attend. It's not an SCCA-sanctioned event, but it was still fun. The autox has been organized and ran by the NICO Club for the past few years.

There is a paved section on the Carlisle Fairgrounds that is used for the event, which is combined with drifting (every hour or so they switch off). The area is actually host to a few SCCA-sanctioned...

First Time Drag Racing

Posted 10-20-2008 at 10:08 AM by snowborder714 (Road Race/Autox '95 GST Blog)
Updated 05-11-2010 at 08:54 AM by snowborder714

This past weekend I went to the drag strip for the first time. My brother and I went with a bunch of friends yesterday to Beaver Springs. We arrived there a little before 10am. The convoy to the tracked included my GST, an '06 Evo IX, and a trailered Camaro (not sure of any details about the car). After getting the Camaro off the trailer and unpacking a few things, we went and registered. It...
