I ran my first autocross after my supercharger install. There were 50 cars there and i was to third quickest, and the quickest car driven there, (street legal). I ran in class A street prepared (ASP). Class named for our cars. I am not the best autocrosser but was 4 seconds quicker than the ZO6. Very difficult to get around course in 1st gear, not because of speed but because of overstear. Found the quickest way around was in second gear the whole way, by 2 seconds (51.5 sec vs. 53.4 sec). Several people asked why would I supercharge a Viper when i got there. They all saw why after the event. Was a great time by all. Only one second away from the quickest cars there. Better luck next time.

My s/c works very well at the autocross. Sometimes, if the traction is down (even with Hoosiers) I will even start out in second gear. No course is to small or tight for a Roe s/c'd car and second gear.
