Picture of our venue...decent amount of space and is a good surface! We're still trying to work out a deal with Robins AFB so we can hold events on the airfield...

Looks like a good venue! I'm curious how your car does with a turbo as large as the FP Red on AutoX. You also have a good bit of power! Only reason I ask is cause my buddy here in Reno is getting his FP Red and he wants to do AutoX next season and I think that turbo will be too laggy.

To be honest, I'm curious myself. This'll be my first autox with this new setup.

On stock turbo, I short shifted a lot--the sudden increase of power when boost came on was a little too abrupt for the tight courses we typically run...

Conversely, with the new setup, I foresee myself sticking with the higher rpms, especially since this will also be my first event on R-Compounds.

The true test will be if I'm able to beat the ATL region guys-generally when they show up to our events, they tend to dominate.

Interesting and don't be afraid of that sudden surge from boost. I'm on a green and I guess with dealing with the snow out here getting ass out is no big deal if it happens, which is sure to happen with as much power as you have lol! Also our courses here in Reno are actually set up on a road course, so its pretty fast, so where the miatas used to dominate in the slower tighter courses they are getting raped now! Lol

Now it makes sense...you said in one of your other posts that you were on 91 octane at 4500ft elevation. Initially I was thinking Colorado, but Reno is pretty high up. Used to visit all the time when I lived in Sacramento!
