Default Skuttlemotorsports AutoX, SM win with video

In a near-replay of the May event, I had a successful and gratifying June race. Out of 50 very competitive cars, I finished first in the SM class and second overall.

Based on what I learned from my successful May race, I was able to start off faster this month, using similar settings with the right camber, height and dampening adjustments from my new, high performing HKS Hipermax RS coil-over suspension. With these improvements, I’m confident that I can now enter corners with full grip, knowing exactly how my car will respond. On my last run alone, I made a small suspension and tire pressure adjustment, dropped -0.3 of a second and secured my second-place overall finish in a tough battle against a well-driven C5 Corvette.

Just like last month, the weather was perfect for racing. The course itself was challenging (demanding concentration with varying transitions), yet rewarding, as I finished on a clean, no-cones-hit lap. I’m extremely pleased with my May and June results, and looking forward to July. Hopefully, I’ll make it three for three!

Davis,
Tryed putting my mic in the engine compartment and all you hear is the lifters.
This last event I tie strapped it to the harness bar behind the drivers seat and got the best results. I also bought the Radio Shack foam covers that helps reduce the wind noise.
