I went to the first ORG rallycross event on Sunday, it was really wet but a lot of fun. I drove my '88 DX Hatch in the stock front wheel drive class and did better than I expected overall. There were a few other Hondas and a variety of other cars that made it interesting, but I was the only Accord. I took a few pics but I'm no photographer and worked timing at the start/finish so none out on the course.
This is after the parade lap, I wasn't sure if I was going to get stuck or not, but pulled through.
I ran some chunky snow tires on the front, I think they made a big difference in ability to get through the mud.
This CRX was running in either the modified or prepared class, times were similar to mine.
This hatch was also in the mod or prep class.
There were lots of Subarus, some of them ran in the morning with the front/rear wheel drive group for time only.
The only decent action shot I got was this 190E diving into a puddle, next time I hope to work out on the course.
These were the recovery trucks, they saw some action pulling the stuck cars off the course, mostly the RWD guys.
It was a lot of fun, I want to do some work on the car for next time, but I am definitely going back.
If anyone has any questions about it just let me know.
