2020 WRX autocrossing with PCA Chesapeake at Bowie Baysox on 6 July 2024.

My third run (and quickest?) of six in the second heat on a very hot day - which might help explain the grip level of my 4 year old Falken 660's! Did the heat help wake them up? Or did I just try harder?

Good launch and good run. Guess the blazing heat was enough to awaken the old Falkens!

same thoughts - you got off to a great start and maintained a good pace and execution, setting up where you needed to. i would've thought the turbo would've taken a much harder hit in the high temps, but your acceleration still looked strong - i guess subaru must have left design margin in the engine mapping to compensate for the hot, humid air.
