Anybody tried Autosolos?

[Evilchap]

A few of us do them I know, and a few drifters use them for practice, but how many people here have a go?

Because I am a bit simple I am struggling to share the videos from my Facebook onto here, but there's some on there of me having a go at the weekend if anybody is bored and fancies seeing what it's about

Used to, but then my local club banned welded diffs! So that was the end of that.

[Evilchap]

I think that was an MSA thing more than a club-specific thing, a lot have that rule

If that's Truro DMC I might be attending one of their events this weekend!

I'd like to give it a go, no idea how you get into it though.

Buy a mx5 job done

Find a local motor club, lots of them about, and usually they run them throughout the year.

Take a look at the ASWMC website - that shows them all in this area and gives you lots of info - then just find the equivalent in your area

There's not a great deal in Devon, SHMC only have one a year and Exmouth have pos. three but they don't seem to be bigger flowing courses, more farm yard based.

I entered the BTRDA newcomers championship last year but my type RA impreza kept breaking so I only managed one!

Shame there's not more down this way, if someone could find land I'd be up for chipping in to set up a few more which might get things rolling into a more local championship...

Might have a quick go at the BHP westpoint solo tomoz, but I don't think the 200 is the right beasty for them, courses are too tight and they weigh too much, as said above mx5 or cheapy clio cup would be good.

Going to try them when I get a car worth using

[Evilchap]

It's worth doing in anything really, the first one round here I did in Skoda, and Oli did in a 1.0 5dr Nova!

Not automatics though

[Evilchap]

They help limit wheelspin

[Vigilant teSte]

Don't do fore and aft changes too quick though

[Evilchap]

Autosolo is all forwards
