I autocross in F-Stock and can generally place about 4th in a field of ~9 drivers. Mach 1's, z28's, and Trans Am's comprise the other 8 cars on any given sunday. The cornering abilities of the SC400 far surpass the competition, whereas the other cars have the HP advantage. I have Kumho Victoracers, oversized, on the stock wheels, that i switch out for each event, along with intake, and exhaust.
I'm relatively new to drifting, but there's a track that opens up for drifters on wednesday nights. I've found that drifting is a more expensive habit, b/c it costs 15 bucks for 2 or 3 hs of parking lot time, as are tires. It's all the rage in houston, seeing as formula d just came through here.

. The little "practice sessions" on thurs nights in richmond are like $40. and thats "cheap". After u add gas for a 90mile drive it gets pricey then as u said tires . I want to see how my car does in autox. Those are only like $20 or so.

Vibration
Is anybody experience vibration in your SC300 when it's on idle mode and when you are driving and stop in a traffic light or stop signs. I am not sure if I need to replace my engine support or transmission support. Please let me know what I need to do to fix the problem on my SC300, 1993. Thank you for your time reading my problem

AutoX, Drag Strips, Drifiting is for PUSSIES!
Try driving a Soarer through France/Belgium on public roads at 150+mph and we aint talking 10 lane highways here with a median the size of Manhatton but dual and single roads with some dividers if your lucky.
(in France you have to drive faster than the locals, who all drive at 120+mph in diesel Renault's)

Just watch out for those crappy stock steering rack bushings
