North Texas! Sunday March 29th at Burleson Highschool I will be doing my first ever Autocross race and excited to be driving my Maverick Lobo.
I hope to be a good representative of our trucks in this sport and will hopefully report back with pictures and status update.

@TedX thanks. It did well then. My Fastest time was 46 seconds which seemed to be in about the middle of all the other posted times.

So yesterday I was unable to race in an SCCA Autocross event with my Ford Maverick Lobo. They DQ'd the truck.

I either need to lower it or widen the track width by adding spacers.

The vehicle cannot be taller than it is wide. Front track width was measured to be 63 3/4" wide and from ground to roof near the C-Pillar is 66" tall.

Apparently the tech snuck me through last time, but this time they put a hard stop on it.

Any opinions on spacers as I think that would be ideal in terms of budgeting rather than lowering.

Kind of disappointed that Ford already lowered the Lobo, but apparently not enough.

@TedX so it's been awhile to get my truck to spec. Got a set of Eibach lowering springs on it now so dropped it another ~2 inches and will add 5mm spacers on all 4 wheels. Based on my calculations it should be race ready and no reason to be turned away. I am now registered for the next event Oct. 4 at Lone Star Park.
