Autocrossing my 06 HHR LS
I'm a board member of the Delta Region of the SCCA and this season I decided to Autocross my HHR LS just to see how it competes with other cars in raw times.
My 06 has a few mods
There were 61 entries at Jan event and I finished 47th ahead of 14 other cars 2006 Chevorlet Hhr-----00:46.9 Honda Civic Si----------00:46.9 2013 Subaru Brz--------00:47.1 Honda Civic Si----------00:47.3 2013 Ford Mustang-----00:47.4 Audi A4----------------00:47.4 2013 Scion Fr-S--------00:47.5 2003 Acura Rsx Type S-00:47.8 Nissan 350Z------------00:47.9 2006 Mazda Mx-5-------00:47.9 1972 Dodge Coronet----00:48.5 Mazda Miata------------00:49.2 1972 Dodge Coronet----00:49.3 Honda Civic Si----------00:50.4 Mini Cooper S-----------00:52.3 https://fbcdn-sphotos-a-a.akamaihd.n...07588954_n.jpg |
:twothumbs: A nice showing against some "real" autocross cars, bet you got a few dirty looks from the Honda folks.
Honestly, I'd pay to see that '72 Coronet hustle through, or over the cones.;) |
Very cool :twothumbs:

:twothumbs:
So. Where and when are the events held? |
Nice with a little adjustment and seat time , you'll be faster and faster!!

The Coronet was/is a Lemons racer.

So, that's what happened to Hunter's old Coronet

The Coronet just reeks of awesome. Who cares if it doesn't win anything... it's the one everyone's gonna remember, along with that freaky little wagon-thing you brought to the party. :roflol:

Here's an update on all the HHR's "Window of Slow"
After each event everyone will check the raw times to see if they ran faster or slower than me! :lol: I upgraded the shocks to a full set of Koni's... it made a big difference in the way the HHR handles. I also finally wore out the Hankooks V12's 235/45-17 at the last event. I'm running Continental DW in 225/50-17 now. I am giving the drivers that made it on the window a chance for redemption. If they run faster than me at any event i will remove their cone. That's why there are gaps in the photo. https://fbcdn-sphotos-g-a.akamaihd.n...72861631_n.jpg |
Nice. Took mine autocrossing a few weeks back, Along with 4 SS'. The three tuned ones were between 2-3 seconds ahead of me, The untuned auto was less than .09 ahead, but he hit a cone, so I technically beat him. I knew it would be fun, but I had know idea how much.
