I know its kinda late, but i use to auto-x in a T-100, as for set-up, it was my lowrider at the time so it was really drop to the ground.



What are you looking for exactly as for set-up?



One thing I did notice compared to a car, you tend to slide out more if you do not line up your turns correctly or you enter the apex to soon or too late.



Otherwise than that drive it like you stole it, you know how your ride feels and responds, so you first have to go from there.



For instance, when I had my Gen 4 and 4.5 Cam I could handle certains turns about 20-30% slower than I do with my Stock ES. So first feel out your truck,

There is a driver local to Milwaukee that runs an X-Runner in H-Stock. He's doing pretty well for the size of the vehicle. Pretty much point and shoot from what he told me. I believe his name is Pete.

Is it allowed?



Could I possibly run my 92 2wd pickup in autocross?



I'd join if I could.

I am in my 3rd year of auto-x with my 2005 x-runner...



Have you started to auto-x? I am balancing my schedule running with Milwaukee Region and now running on road courses with Midwest Council...I am modified now, in SM class:
