Some new video: Strano Performance Project Autocross car

http://vimeo.com/24847038

I haven't been updating as much as I'd like, haven't had much time. But here's some video from last weekend's Dover DE SCCA National Tour.

Powerwise, the car is stock still. No tune, no intake (though I have them just concentrating on the chassis for now). In fact the mods are far fewer than many of you guys have, proving it's how you do the work and with what parts, not how much stuff you can throw on. Because this run, was as fast as a Lotus Elise and a Grand Sport Corvette could muster (also both on the same brand and compound tire I'm on).

Awesome! I knew Sterling Gray was the fastest color, but I didn't know it was the best handling color as well...

Awesome. The parking lot didn't look to smooth either. Looks like fun.

too **** awesome.

Nice driving... very glad to hear that you're kicking so much butt with this car. Utterly amazing that you're .1 off the pace of that Lotus.
