    Tamago takes 3rd, misses 2nd by .074 seconds

    well, autoX was this last sunday, and i learned a lot!

    1. RWD will ALWAYS beat FWD :)
    2. the ABS relay is there for a REASON.
    3. bald race tires grip laterally like a pitbull on your leg
    4. bald race tires have no spin resistance. this applies to braking..
    5. THE ABS RELAY IS THERE FOR A REASON!

    i had a good time out at the track, but the guy who is my main contender just pulled ahead by a hair and stole 2nd place..

    my last run i decided pulling the ABS relay would give me an edge... now i have flat spots on all 4 of my race tires lol.. but i bet the run looked pretty sweet :) smoke EVERYWHERE..

    anyway, on to the pictures.. (tony no longer allows linking his stuff)
