Message	AutoX'ed this weekend. Did ok. Took 3rd for my class (ESP). Lost to a 94' Rustang GT with pulleys,intake exhuast, wheels, springs and suspension. And V8 Firebird. Knowing these cars are both V8's I don't feel terribly bad. Their best was a 1.09 and mine a 1.13. Would really like to take them out too.... Was looking @ the tirerack.com site and they had some BF Goodrich slicks for $68 a piece!!! Just curious how these will affect my times?
