Mildly Rusty Fits are always the most threatening haha I'll be at Carolina Motorsports Park, Watkins Glen, NJMP, Mid Ohio, and Lime Rock for the 2023 season, so definitely find me at any of those if you'll be there 👍
@@luisito787PR My Fit was around 2,520lb with me and 3 gal of fuel in it, and made ~99WHP. Hyundai Accents should be pretty close for this class if it's one of the older non-GDI models 👍
Hearing the level of excitement at the end really makes the video and put a huge smile on my face. Great driving and congrats on the P1 finish, you definitely worked hard for it and deserved it.
@@vacuumnoise It's something like +3WHP from when testing on my local dynojet, but it wasn't in a controlled environment, so I'd take that with a grain of salt. The biggest difference is that the J's intake is a true cold-air intake, versus the K&N that sucks from the engine bay, so the intake air doesn't get heatsoaked with the J's model and should theoretically provide more low end torque because of the chamber design too.
I'm running Fortune Auto 510-Series coilovers at 12k/12k spring rates. I upgraded immediately after this event because the digressive valving is really valuable for track and street use, and my only regret is not buying nicer coilovers sooner haha
@@RossomeSauce1 What type of tires do you recommend with those rates? Also, would those rates work with street tires or would it overwork them? Thank you
@@findtherightbeat I use them with street tires all the time when I'm daily driving with no adverse effects on General Tire RT43s. For track use, the RT660s are actually extremely good if we're strictly talking for track use. They effectively matched the A052 on pace when I compared them back to back, but the RT660s provided much better steering feedback and telegraphed understeer through the steering wheel much better as an result. The 660s will wear too quickly to really be considered as a good daily driver tire in my mind, but they definitely work on the road. Just don't expect them to last over a year if you do 1-3 track days and also drive to work on them every weekday lol
Yup! I opted to disconnect my front sway bar first to gauge the handling balance, and I like how it was when including coilovers and ~3 deg of front camber initially. Progress Rear Sway and SPC camber bolts are an excellent starting point if you're starting on stock suspension or lowering springs though
@@RossomeSauce1 I am currently rebuilding the entire front suspension to oem specs albeit with kyb gr2 struts, debated doing camber bolts but idk if the stock height etc. calls for it? a Progress RSB in the future for sure tho
@@vacuumnoise The OEM suspension didn't include front camber bolts, so you'd have to get aftermarket ones (although Honda makes some too). At stock ride height, you'll definitely benefit from added camber if you're looking for better track and autocross performance. I only mention coilovers because they often come slotted from the factory, and allow you to get more camber with camber bolts than normal struts.
The GD3!
Good job out there! Deserved P1 🏁
Hell yeah! I cant wait to join yall at these events this year! HPDE noob with a mildly rusty fit 🤙

@@RossomeSauce1 the fit may be threatenin by my driving sure wont be lol. See you at the Glenn, mid-o, and hopefully lime rock!
@@noahmasse3090 hope to see you guys at MidO!
Great driving and great commentary! Way to get it!
Not gonna lie, it was kind of surreal hearing Greg Creamer commentating and talking about Sundae Cup 😅
@@RossomeSauce1 was the weight on this class? I have a hyundai accent

Kyle made me work so hard for that first place finish, so it was reeeally difficult to contain my excitement with the way it happened.
Thanks ♥️
So dope. Congrats.
The attack on T12 makes me almost giddy with excitement at that level of execution.
It just dives in like a missile lol, which is a weird thing to say about something that tops out at 107mph 😅
how do you like the Js intake? its the only one Im considering. Is the air filter dry flow or oiled???
plz lmk, great video
Oiled filter, but you can attach any filter you want since it just uses a pod 👍
@@RossomeSauce1 i see. Pricey but gorgeous piece for sure; id prefer to run a dry flow tho, i guess i can use an apexi or aem etc.
@@RossomeSauce1 how are the gains, read a 5whp increase, saw yr dynod at 99whp? and i beleive i saw 97whp with the k&n typhoon? correct?

@@RossomeSauce1 very cool. Yeh I think I'm just going to put an apex drop in filtre in mine as it's a daily.
Enjoyed watching! What suspension set up are you running currently? Apologies, I think I've asked before

@@RossomeSauce1 Thanks, really appreciate the detailed info on your tire set up!!
no rear sway bar?

@@RossomeSauce1 thanks for the info. Yeah I wonder how much one can truly lower without ruining the suspension geometry, 2 inches?
