Ran autocross in the 87 300D yesterday

It was fun! My first time running autocross in one of my own cars (last was in a 06 C230 2 years ago). This event is put on monthly by the DC area section of the MBCA. Still waiting to see my offical results but I didn't do half bad for a diesel at 56.37s! Fastest MB time of the day was a 190E-16 @ 49.91s and slowest was a 93 400E @ 63.33s. I was surprised to find out afterward that I beat an 03 E55, 05 Saleen Mustang and 99 Trans-Am, all by about a second! It was good though to finally be able to put my new H&R springs and Bilstein Sport shocks to the test. I plan on attending as many events as I can and try to improve even more.
