Autoxing isn't about speed, it's about handling and the ability to control your car. For those who are saying that it looks slow it's because the course is small and cars only get up to about 60mph.


Drag is for fast cars.
Autox is for fast drivers.
Track is for fast drivers in fast cars.

Well obviously there are a certain number of individuals that don't seem to have the concept. So I had to put it laymen terms.

tsk tsk... magazine test racing is pointless, you dont know what the conditions were and how the driver was reacting. Let alone if they were even done at the same place. So no SE-R SpecV =/> WRX

Wow, that was really boring. I guess auto-x doesn't translate well to video form, it was more fun to watch when I went to a Subaru auto-x meet at the fairgrounds a year or so back.
