Thumbs up Videos of today's autocross in my GT3

What a blast the GT3 is!!! Love the straight pipes, its loud, but with the throttle not completely pressed down its not bad around town. STILL LOUD but fine with me!

Please right-click and save the videos, don't stream them so we don't over load the server. One video is of a run with the camera inside the car, and one is a video from outside. Enjoy!

Sweetness!
How'd you do over all?

I'd love to do that in the Turbo, but I'm guessing a TT is not a good Auto-x car.

Looks like fun! The exhaust sounds great--is that the stock exhaust?

No I removed the exhaust -- it just has Fabspeed by pass pipes on. LOUD and saves about 60 lbs.

Scott:

Turbo would be a great autocross car! Go do it, you'll love your car 100X more. Don't be sad if 914's beat you on a tight course, but you'll have a blast.

I'll give it a shot. The last Auto-x I did was in a Mustang 5.0! haha
I was 19.

I track a lot, but never Auto-x in this car.

I was thinking the Turbo's weight, and the turbo lag would make it not the best Auto-x car.
The AWD should be nice though. Maybe I am just clueless until I do it, so I'm going to remedy that by doing it!

Turbo would be a blast, and depending on the course it could certainly have the best time -- a tight twisty course however would give advantage to cars more like a Lotus Elise. But I'm not out there to win, I'm out there to have fun.

Are you saying you win every autocross you enter in your Turbo?
