Default just entered in a autocross event !!! helpppp

ok well on the 22nd i am going to try my luck at autocross.. but i am scared because my suspension is STOCK and i guess i will need springs and cc plates.. and i am guesssing the lower the better at a max 2 inch drop...does anybody know where i can get some used to springs and ccplates because i am on a tight budget... i am trying to avoid new shocks and struts.. cause of the $$$$..

here is a pic....
sry bad lighting...

Lol your fu*ked!.... If you are going that low most people will HIGHLY recomend new shocks struts... And if you drop it that much without them its going to ride like a 1985 honda!

I'd try it stock first so you know what it feels like..... who cares if you finish 2nd from last.... lol. That way you can feel the difference..... But to scavenge up last minute parts and try to figure out how it feels, in my opinion is not the best. Find out what your car needs and wants and how it matches with your driving.

Like with drag racing, I always run the car as hard as possible stock and compare the difference while modding. So I know doing this does that.... and doing that does this.....

Just avoide the cones...... the give you dents[:@]

Thats what I said when I autocrossed my dad's Audi A8 all road and realized....... European cars PWN American cars when it comes to Autocross[:@]. Takes a hell of a suspension mod, and a good driver to get a Stang to perform like that. When I drove that damn thing..... It took corners so good, it almost became boring because it just wont let you loose control.
