Eric and I at Autocross

[philman]

Eejay and I at the Eugene Autocross event #1,We used the same number because we are in different classes. They placed me in E Prepared...Kind an unfair placement for me...

Well, how the heck did you do?

Side note, Phil, on your dash gauge pack. Do you have the piece that angles them toward you?

 

[philman]

no I didn't know there was such a thing. I angled the entire pod towards me.

It showered during my time in the grid, slowing down everybodys time. I did two runs with the wipers on.

Hard to keep it in a straight line when the pad is wet
Who makes the pod?

 

[philman]

I think I got it from Summit. The gauges are autometer 2" gauges.

Well, how the heck did you do?

I was 7 out of 8. My class is super competitive in that club and and they run really fast courses so I count on having my arse handed to me when I go down there. I had a great time though. I ran in the morning, got 5 runs and missed the rain. I think Phil and I were the only LBCs.

Phil,

Tell me more about the TR7V8. Did you do the conversion? Is it listed over on BritishV8.org? I'll read about it over there if it is in the How it was done section.

Thanks,
