Nice job with that urban assault vehicle .....must be the tune  ;D

It definitely helped, thanks!! Unlike the skating rink we were driving on in round 1, I was actually able to hook up and get some traction. The AJP 93 performance tune and boost regulator ran flawlessly! The corner workers were commenting on how awesome all the sounds are from my truck lol.

Final round is this Saturday, 3/11!

Should be dry (hopefully) for some elevated speeds!

Well it was cold (15-20*F) and dry yesterday. The XSport definitely fell further behind the little go carts on the auto-x track now that the snow and ice are gone, but it was still a blast.

On one run, I got a TMS fault and lost power steering. That was a little unnerving coming into one of the tightest corners on the track at a relatively high rate of speed. A key cycle and a short drive reset everything back to normal, and I didn't have any more issues the rest of the day.

I'll post up the final results when they're available, but in the meantime, here are a couple iPhone videos a buddy of mine took:

Thanks, Brad. :)

I swapped over my all seasons on Friday night. We had a mix of snow/ice/slush in the Feb event and I really tore up the winters. I don't think the Blizzaks would have provided me any benefits yesterday, and they probably would have been completely trashed. LOL

On a side note, there were two cars that rolled tires off their rims, presumably because they didn't check their tire pressures. One guy had a bulge in his sidewall on his front right, which takes a ton of load at the turn-around on the speed stop. He let some pressure out to provide some "relief". SMH
