First autocross event
Attended my first autocross event put on by Golden Gate Region Porsche Club of America (GGR-PCA).
Here is the video of my 6 runs:
Times(s) | Notes |
---|---|
65.926 | DNF |
61.359 | |
59.520 | |
59.467 | |
59.413 | Personal Best |
60.382 |
Ended up in the 3rd group, which meant I worked the course for the first group. This was a boon because I got to watch other people run the course.
First run I had an instructor and missed the course in a couple of places. But it was a good to get a feel for the course and gave me something to start from. Was really pumped to have beaten 60s by the last run of the morning. I actually ran faster than one of the guys with a 911 in my work group. On my last run of the day I attempted to downshift on the horseshoe which was a huge mistake. Live and learn.
Best line from instructor in the video: “You are missing everything!!”
Guys with 911s and Cayman GTSs were posting in the 55s range. Really fast guys were just under 50s.
The 911 GT3 is a BEAST!! And in particular the 911 GT3 RS on race slicks. That guy set the best time.
