im going to be itching to run again too esp with some bits i'm ordering this week, brake lines and front pads, motor mount inserts, allignment shims for the rear and i'm looking at some arm pieces for up front. i'm getting ready to do some maintaince so i figure i might as well do some add-ons at the same time, esp if i can find some grip

it looks like i've managed to get off work now so i'll be there in the 1st gen xb
i can caravan down from the frederick area, but i was interested if a group of us northerners would be up for sharing a motel/hotel room in richmond on friday night (some can crash on the floor) to save having to drive down in the am and then do car prep before the event. i tend to like only having a 2 hr drive on the car the morning before an auto-x.
just an idea

also any good bbq places near by as well, or any places that serve hushpuppies would be a plus as well ( i already know i'll be hitting up waffle house for breakfast more then likely unelss i can find a roscoe's but i dont think richmond does
scratch that frown, we'll (and by that i mean me) will be hitting up annibell's for chicken and waffles

happy birthday
my second post was in reference to how i got my xb, i actually won it in a radio contest by living in it for 4 days. thus me wanting to get a room instead of just sleeping in the car will likely be humourous to clayton and mike ;)

i used to KILL cones and i have yet to find damage that cant be WIPED off. the most u'll really get is the equivalent of an eraser mark on a body pannel. well...actually my friend leah actually sumhow hit a cone and made a small crack at the ver very bottom secton of her front bumper...but u have to understand how she hit that cone tho. i've been autox'ing for 3 years and i dont have any marks on the car that couldnt be wiped off. also after going thru 1 year of drag every 2 weeks and 3 years of autox 1-2 a month i STILL havent had anything snap besides them stoopid rusty endlinks which will snap whether u autoX or not. i know a guy with a STRICKLY show tC that has had all 4 snap. its ok tho. dezod makes a fine replacement set that are much stronger and cheaper.
FOOD FOR THOUGHT. "i dont wanna break anything" is a very common excuse but it isnt very well founded being that things rarely break from autoX. u have a better chance of breaking sumthing or hitting sumthing on the way there. most people who've never autox'd think they'll break sumthing. please bleve cars are put together MUCH better than you think. lol. we had an Hyundia elantra out there more than enuf times....that should tell u something rofl

thanx for the bday wishes

Happy Bday Beaar, Mike he is right, if you take the course slow and steady guranteed you wont even put a scratch on your car. Also taking the course makes you learn the dimensions of your car and how it handles properly as well. Give it a Shot!
#37
the xb suspension forum is dead, as is the powertrain, anything of value ends up in vast forum of misinformation known as the forced induction forum but if you want to find info on motor mount inserts it's in there for some unknown reason
i should have more grip this time around as i've ironed out tire pressures a bit more (i was too high at delaware actually) and i'll have a better sorted allignment too , but weight wise i'll be weighed down from chicken, waffles, soul rolls, and hushpuppies

not to mention it actualy teaches u really really good accident avoidance. i speak from experience. u learn weight transfer and the amount of load tires can take before they break free as well as the true handling abilities of your car at it its limit (as sapan stated already) autoX is the reason i havent wrecked my car a whole lot more. no one in my city can drive. they all have crayon writing on construction paper for drivers licenses

Well I know sap broke his sway bar one time autoX'n and has snapped a few wheels studs as well.
And hell, i wasn't even thinking about the possibly body damage but thats another thing to think about.
You think Mo is going to autoX his car? I don't know but I wouldn't if I were him.
My thing is that I know I could do the autoX'n with my suspension and brakes. I just don't have the money IF something were to happen. So I'd rather be safe than sorry.
