jeff - volvoDad returned to autocrossing in the year 2000 and brought friend Jeff along with him.   Here Jeff skillfully hustles his 3300lb Volvo around the course on street tires. jeff in the stop boxJeff hits the stop box cleanly, but cringes at the 500 miles of tirewear he doled out in the last minute.  Soon after this photo he orders racing tires :)
steve smokes a tireCompetitor Steve Barber drives an NX like Dad's.  You can see a small puff of tire smoke behind the rear wheel, the result of it locking as all the weight is on the other 3 wheels. steve gets a wheel off the ground This left-hander at the back of the course gets the inside rear wheel cleanly off the ground.
