Cal Club Autocross Forums

Had a great time out there today

thanks Mako for the number panels

wish i could have made it for practice but couldnt get the day off work :unimpressed:

Can I pay for x runs the day of the event i wan a bit more than 3 runs

just registered this is my 2nd solo but my first "championship" event.

I signed up for stx class I think i got it right

see you all there

so

i got the wheels now looking for the right tire

choices that fall in my price range

Federal 595 RS-R

Dunlop Direzz z1 star spec

bridgestone re-01r

or recommend a tire

sorry my pockets aren't deep enough for re-11

are there other organizations that put on auto x events or is it just SCCA?

been looking to get out on the course again, but don't want to have to drive out to El Torro, or San Diego to do so.

Auto club speedway is 10 min from me. but next event isn't until May 2nd and 3rd

really, ok everyone who I've asked has been telling me to go with the enkeis aswell.

hey everyone well I went to my first solo2 event on Jan 14th 2009 with my DD setup rota slipstreams 16x8 5x100, on falkon 452's 225/50/16 my tires took a good beating and wheels got a bit of cone scuff.so I'm looking for a set of wheels just for solo2/track abuse only. some choices I had in mind.

Best thing to do when you first buy a helmet is try it on in person. Sizing varies from brand to brand and some helmets fit different shaped heads better.
