Autocross #3 Alameda May 2015


My first AX event for 2015.  We lots of fun as usual, and this course was super long and super fast.  Actually felt less like a regular AX course and more like track cross maybe?  Was still fun as it allowed me to work on throttle steer and how not to spin out and braking points...both what I had wanted to focus on anyhow.  Below are some photos and video of my last/best run.
