Notes / Comments: First time with STX setup and autocross earlier this year stock and really hated the tires. It has been about three years since I autocross with a Lexus IS350 in DS. . . . big difference in grip and trying to get rid of some bad habits since I don't have torque on demand.

HAIL FELLOW NASA REGION MEMBER! From your mod list, I'm pretty sure you're still in NXD. You're right about the car being more of a momentum car. Being neutral on the throttle through slaloms and turns will make up tenths of seconds. It looks like you've got some nice smooth inputs as well!

Hahaha, way to control the power slides! Even when you spun it didn't look like you took out any cones! I'm still fighting the stock tires, but as you'll see below, I am trying to get excuses to replace them!

Wet/loose surfaces are my favorite to compete on and from what I see in the video, you do too! Great stuff!

Notes / Comments: Placed first in this event, lead the usual competition in Novice by 5 seconds this time. I laid down a pretty good time, I think, but from criticizing my own driving, looks like I need to carry a bit more speed through corners, and turn in earlier. That's just what I can see, though. I've only been doing this since March.

Congrats on the win! You've got some great mods to become a FTD beast! Sometimes the best critic is yourself. It's great that you have video and are able to look over it and see where you might have gained time. It was difficult to hear the throttle over the wind, but I believe I may have heard some abrupt throttle on/offs. That can upset the car and cause a loss of traction. If I were to give any criticism, that'd be it.
