I thought about goingt o that event last weekend but changed my mind since I had that experience last year with my old 8 MR. It looks like you were having a blast but my experience with the ACD could best be described when I autocrossed in the rain. With the ACD set on gravel or even snow, the front tires grabs much sooner under throttle at the beginning and mid turn. On tarmac however the front lost traction for a split second and doesn't bite until you're exiting.

Beware of Curbs if you plan on doing this in a parking lot. I didn't even try this and my rim is bent now. I do not have stock advans(currently using Kumho ASX) either, just incase you're wondering how I slid into a curb. I'm pretty sure some of you guys will be on here wondering if you broke anything like me when you slam into the curb.
