Warhorse Racing’s Autocross Thread

This autocross featured a challenging chain of cones laid out on a road course! Going into the event, I felt like I had lost a step relative to my competitors. I needed a win to stay in contention for a CAM-T Season Championship. I was up against a fast driver who beat me the last two times we competed at this venue.

This event featured 2 super-fast sweepers! I knew I wouldn’t be able to get my IRS-swapped 2000 GT to the top of the podium without attacking both sweepers aggressively. Sweepers are a common autocross element, so I took this opportunity to share some tips for finding speed in sweepers.

This video shows my first & fastest runs, and details my strategy for getting my Mustang through sweepers as fast as possible.

At this event, a tricky trap element tripped up a number of novices. A trap is a slow element that comes after a fast element. In order to take home a trophy, I’d have to make sure my IRS-swapped 2000 GT didn’t fall into the trap set by the course designers.
