you will also do better with experience, come along to more, its a lot more fun when you can actually move ;-)

There is no reason why you couldnt be in the top 5 in your car

I got beaten by a diesel corolla wagon in wet grass with my SW20. But I had never driven on wet grass before. I still did OK.

I will try to be at the next event, this time I will have a car to use :lol:

ahh, so judging by the amount of mud on the car behind the front wheels, and the distinct lack of it in a similar position behind the rear wheels we can now the wrx is quite clearly a fwd car then

Dude, we all got beaten by a $400 Honda City, that used to put out 40hp, back in the mid 1980's when it was new ... it's horses for courses at an autocross.

Plus of course Neil R can seriously drive.

I'm guessing serious sledging happened

Horse s**t stinks real bad, doesn't it?

Chinglesh ftw :lol:

But you seriously do look like you either need
A - Better mud flaps
or
B - To spend less lime in reverse as indicated by small amounts of mud looking to have been thrown towards the front of the car from the rear wheels :wink:

edited to remove my own chinglesh d'oh
