A few weekends ago … Allyn challenged me with a day at an autocross event, to test out my new beetle.  With no hesitation I agreed.

So what is autocross?  Autocross is a competition in which drivers navigate one at a time through a defined course of obstacles, seeing who can finish with the best speed.

Our day started with putting numbers on the car.  Then we got our racing assignments.  We were both racing in the second heat, which meant were helping on the track during the first event.

Allyn drove first to show me how autocross … I don’t think I was prepared the high speed plus all the quick turns.

After that it was my turn to take the wheel.   I had no clue what I was doing during my first run.

 

At the end of the day Allyn got 3rd place and I finished last. In the end it was a good way to see how my car could handle and it was tons of fun!!!!
