2013 plans

what is everybody doing to prepare for this year's autox season?

i'll be toying with a d-stock build wrx for 2013. parking the cavalier for a season (maybe 2) to tear it down and make some big changes to hopefully reach some personal goals I have for the car.

I picked up an 02 WRX already sporting KYB AGX's. Plans are basically d-stock legal mods (catback, panel filter, 1 swaybar change, alignment, r-comps, etc)

so what is everybody else doing?

I plan to actually get out on the parking lot for an AutoX or the track for a HPDE for the first time! Bone stock Mazda3. I'm interested how long it is going to take to roast my stock brakes lol!

Hoping to have the Focus running around some cones with my brother-in-law. I was in SM so long I dont know what the Focus should be in class wise.

Different rims, diameter tire. long ram air intake, wires, springs/shocks and struts, short throw shifter..

Picked up a 2001 C5z for S-Stock and Nasa TT-3. Stock except for a sway bar and some NT05s. Looking forward to being in a class that actually has people in it (my Fd was in XP and not a lot of people show up for that class).

Trying to find a E36 M3 that isn't ridiculous money or beat to crap. Aiming at STU for now.

Considering I haven't done an auto-x in a couple years and my car falls into XP, I plan to do a fair amount of losing.

We all did poorly our first couple of events, especially those of us who race with bigger regions.

The most important thing is to get out there and learn, learn, learn! Instructors are free, so take advantage of it!

Just hoping to see a few Auto-X days in the Juke this year. Won't be able to start whipping it around until the clutch is done and broken in, so it ls looking more like late Spring early Summer if anything.
