autocross pics
hey guys,
ive been autocrossing the past 3 weekends, (only had the car just over a month), tons of fun, wanted to post some of the pics. Definitely starting to get a feel for how the car handles.

But like i said each week im getting better with the car, only about 3 weekends of autocross left in the michigan season until next april.
So much fun driving autocross, i dont even drive the car the rest of the week because its such a letdown in comparison
my previous sports car was a 99 camaro 3.8L. i had suspension upgrades and super wide tires on that car so i think it had better grip, but thats about it!

my c43
Removed the side moldings, did custom wheel flares.
Fender air vent, molded side skirts for a lower look.
Painted it viper black, custom tear deck spoiler.
Trunk still needs to be buffed, also added a good scoop which forces air into the nodded air inlets....

Thanks, and next summer new 18 inch rims with 2 inch lip front and 2 1/2 to 3 inch lip in rear rims. You are right, the rims now are out of place. The ones I want will fit right in.....

eclectic assortment of cars
Began our 'summer' holiday on Wednesday, driving through the Canadian Rockies to visit family in Vancouver (and to shop in the US!). Literally first stop once we got into Vancouver, after ~1200km of driving spread over two days, with our little four month old daughter crying for the last 200km, was at a gas station so I could use the ATM.
As I parked, I noticed a 202. But as I got out I noticed it was an AMG. Very pleasantly surprised to see it was a C43 with BC vanity plates 'C43 AMG'. Anyone on here?

The hood vents allow pushed air to the OEM air tubes. I flipped the tubes upside down so they meet up to the vents. After 35-40 mph you feel the pushed air.
