Autocross video from Northeast Divisionals 2004.

This should be up for about a week or two.

File is about 15mb.

19.2 meg :) , very intense. You had that camera mounted nice. Car sounds great !

nice runs mate! great vid i want an in car cam so badly!

nice vid. That 4th gen seemed kinda bouncy.

very nice. autocross looks like so much fun

yah it does, and i've missed the entire autocross season here because I don't feel like getting up at 4 am on sundays to make them.

nice vid. That 4th gen seemed kinda bouncy.

That's because it's a car that is 2000lbs and has twice the spring rate as my 2500lbs car.

Cool vid, wish my vtec would engage that low :(
(6,100rpm on my b16b)

Why so high? I'm actually going the Hondata route next Friday to lower it to 5200rpms.

It's stock like that.. you'd think with the highest-flowing b series head they would have made it lower.

how the hell do you guys know where you're going?

I wanna go autocross, but from the looks of that video, i'll pretty much just be aiming for whichever cones i see around me :icon16:

They give you a course map and let you walk the track for 2-3 hours before the racing starts. You gotta take the first couple rounds a bit slow to get it down, then with the remaining 3, get on it :) (we usually get 5 runs here at the SCCA events, could be different elsewhere).

That is a sweet video man. You were tearin' up that track. Makes me want to do that. *Note to self - Get motor swap, springs, shocks, and rear sway bar for next summer*

Actually each region is different, but you do get to walk the course as many times as you can fit before they start the event. Gives you a basic idea what the course is like and how to attack it. Some regions don't have course maps though.

The best thing to do is show up to an event, let them know you are a novice and would like some help. Great thing about autocrossers is that they will go out of their way to help you out. I've been doing this 7 years now and still ask for help from the experts.

CivicSpoon: Just to let you know the more mods you do the harder the class you get put in.

Guys read my help page in my sig.

Oh yeah I know, but I have a gutless CX (70hp) and I have to rev the thing to 2200RPM to get it to move in first gear. I've seen a video of my competition in my area, and basically it'd be me trying to beat my friend with his civic vx h22a/turbo, he actually won the division he was in (who says you can't autocross with an h22 swap).

Great video and driving, thanks for sharing. :)
Just want to ask whats the list of modifications to your car?

Thanks.

Awesome vid! Great to see a little 4g action in there since I've never seen an actual autocrossing 4g. But all I can say is that that must be intense to just get the lines right and know where your going. I couldn't even concetrate on where I'm going at that speed.

i just go straight as fast as my car will take me
