Episode 6
This episode is the 2nd in a series of UNYAX episodes that focuses on each of the general SCCA autocross categories.
Street Touring is one of the most popular classes in Upstate NY and beyond. Lots of competitors means a strong knowledge base and most people stay in the class for many years.
Over the last several seasons Nick Austin has competed in Street Touring across the Empire State.
Nick joins host Mark Mangicaro to talk about the advantages of competing in Street Touring. Topics include wheel and tire width options, upgrading springs and coil overs, and lowering your seating position. Nick shares his ideas for deciding on which components to install and why, how the changes affect the car, and when to make the move.
