I think I did very good considering this was my first autoX and I never hit a cone and hittin' a 48.035.
I tried to enter on the right on my first run, even though I walked it on the left and felt the left was faster. I saw the white 2.5 RS spin trying to enter on the right, and I promptly did the same thing! After I tried it myself, I decided that there wasn't enough grip and you had to give up too much in order to enter on the right, as compared to having the easy entry to the next gate after the slalom.
