Hey,
Need some wisdom from you all:
I just acquired a 2019 C43 AMG which I would like to autocross. Anyone got experience with these cars? What tire pressures do you suggest as starting pressures? What class does SCCA put our cars in ? Most autocross courses that I have run in stick shift cars it made sense to get into 2nd as fast as possible and use 2nd for the entire course. I have never driven an automatic transmission car in an autocross what tips can you all give me for proper gear choice as well as how to stay in it?

On a related topic: anyone got experience with Racechip add on on the 3 L biturbo motor? Please tell me your experience.

I fitted the race chip to my wife’s C43 it just made an angry car angrier. Highly recommend it for value for money and very easy plug and play installation.
Have it on my ML500TT also with the pedal box as well. It’s a rocket.
