Most autocrosses I've been to, you really don't get out of 2nd gear (manual car). It appears that alot of the trouble he's getting into is making the 2-3 shift instead of just holding it in second gear and just over driving the car. That could be too much rear gear or just being overly aggressive. AutoX is all about being smooth on the inputs, steering, braking, throttle......

In order to go fast, you must first learn how to go slow......

Probably the most fun you can legally have in a car on a fun per second kind of scale.

Can't wait for springtime.....
