3:13 "you'll probably bark for an emo girl" I didn't know we were all on the same page 😭
Alex bruh 2:40 is crazy dude 😂
He’s wild today 😂
He didn't miss
The most important rule of modifying your car for autocross (if you want to compete) is to pick the class you want to run your car first, then modify within those limits. Something as simple as having wheels half an inch wider than stock, or lowering springs, can boot you out of street classing and into a class where you have no chance to compete without a whole set of additional mods (and experience).
The sunburn threat is real, tho.
Something that helped me big time was watching videos that explain cone layouts and go to one of the events and just hang out. Gives you an idea how much room there is for the course layouts and what everyone is doing while youre there.
Actually autox-ing for my bday next month so this is good timing
went to a autocross event last weekend, rode in a few cars, rode in a evo 9 completely stock and man it came to driver, she was fantastic
Hope to take my brz tS to an autocross event sometimes!
I'm loving all the references to Honda Fits!
My local region started autox in 1953 which is 71 years this year. SCCA solos this year has been going for 52 years. Autox has been around for a very long time.
Can we get a so you want to build a rallycross car???
Autox sounds very reasonable. Drag racing not so much.
Great advice! 😸 Love to hear thoughts on the Chevy Volt
Had to watch cause you had a scion frs release series 1.0 for the thumbnail!🎉
More videos yasss!!!!
Miata for 2.5k at this point it’s already “the good old days”
Love autox in my e36 m3
2:39 Bold words for a guy who runs a 2.5 60 foot and got his ass beat so bad at the last WCEC takeover track day he disqualified the two actual fastest cars at the strip...
Love it when he says if you’re throwing more money at it than it’s worth and you’re doing it right😅😂
Also said every Subaru owner ever!🫠👏🤓😜
Watching that C6 Corvette hit the curb at 0:46 was definitely cringe worthy 😬😬💀

MartiniWorks content hits like crack
Be sure to check which class you want to race in's restrictions before you go buying everything. Keeping in street class doesn't give you much to work with for mods for example.

$2,500 Miata? Where?
From my autocross experience, I don't think this is a great primer for autocross modding. Although you touched on, I don't think enough emphasis was put on how modification impact your classing. Most guidance I've received in regards to modifications is to start with vehicle maintenance and driver mod. Instead of dropping money on coilovers that will instantly put you into more competitive classes, start with the aforementioned RPF1s + 200TW tire.
never thought about autocrossing in a field.
I live in Ohio, empty fields are EVERYWHERE outside my city. Might have to buy a plot of land when im an old fart and have some dirt auto crossing.
If you’re in Ohio, Detroit region and Nelson’s Ledges has a rallycross course you can go to
Don't forget to put a fire suppression kit in and not test it
And then basically blame the installer in the video
Which 'fast' guys are telling you not to run Hoosiers? Literally go look at the 2023 nationals list of cars on race tires and you'd be hard pressed to find anyone in the top who ISN'T running Hoosiers.
Depends on the context. New autocrossers dont want hoosiers. Stick to street tires, street class, and focus on driving and seat time.
@@Chrisstmary sure, but saying "the people who are actually fast will tell you not to buy them" is just false because the people who are actually fast actually use hoosiers. Street classes are moot because you cant run slicks.
I run Hoosiers in autox. But I’m is a Street Prepared class so it’s better off to run Hoosier to be competitive.
You're probably the 5th dislike on the video huh
@@BIissful_Abyss you mean the 5th dislike on this ad? Yeah probably
I wish I knew what the intro song is!

@@lthudgins Thank you so much!!!!! 😎🔥
The amount of out of pocket comments in one video is impressive especially when they're all said so seamlessly 😂
The vibe in the comments is different for this video wtf
AutoX is the most fun you can have sub $50 with your clothes on.
Here’s how you do it:
Just go with whatever car you have and send it.
You are clearly just promoting continental. I want to make this clear. This is not the tire of choice for most people. Just say it they're paying you. You promote them in all of your videos
Stick to tilty wheels and stretched all seasons buddy
200TW tires and send it. Otherwise a funny vid
Imagine being placed on Street Modified for a having a carbon hood on your Civic. 😂
That's me 😢
that my issue with SCCA TT, my carbon hood has vents that are barely functional but it puts me in a MAX Class
"seat time will always be huge" - I wouldn't call < 6 minutes of seat time in an 8 hour day "huge seat time"
Those 6 minutes are like dogs' years, though. You can easily have 25-30 turns in each of those 6 minutes of seat time.
Don't ruin autocross too man... Have you ever autocrossed? No? Then why are you even talking on it lol, then you get mad when people call you fake
This might be the worst advice for anyone looking to get into autox.
People aren’t coming to this channel for auto cross advice.
This is the same style of content they’ve been putting out since FI, you don’t have to watch it lmao
