Welp, fuel pump died during my last run at autocross. Had to abandon my car in the parking lot and go home to pick up a spare pump to swap out.

I ended up being 2nd fastest novice and my brother was 3rd fastest novice. Sweet!

I picked up a GoPro so here are some videos. you can pretty much skip the first 1:30 of each, I was too lazy to edit.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uHVvmRJbboY - First run, pretty mediocre

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nbujKgBmtY0 - Second run, interrupted by a spinning BMW

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YrYiySz39o4 - Third run, my fastest time.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DNBAsbeQjOk - Fourth run & Re-run to make up for the aborted second run. The main fuel pump dies in this video, my car just lost all power.

Supposedly I was hiking up the inside rear wheel in nearly every turn. Waiting for pics as evidence.
