Here is my video from Saturday practice. I got 5 runs on the video. This is shot with a very old Hero Cam that is **NOT** HD, so the video is a little rough. Since this is my first time out with this Miata, I would love input from folks on how my lines look. http://youtu.be/ZQ9sQZTLR4o" onclick...

Thanks Gio! Kurt, I was late in getting the points card for myself and the wife registered, but I got around to it this weekend. I'm a (late) returning member, so I hope you have my info still, if not PM me. My wife is a new member, and I realized as soon as I hit submit on PayPal I didn't include h...

I'm registered! Although I've done ProSolo the last 3 or 4 years in a row, this is my first year in the Miata, and I'll only be able to attend the April practice event before the Pro-Solo... I may need some help setting her up! Can't wait for this years event!

Wife's registration sent - so, can I help with Grid?

GRC is about 8 miles from the Spectrum. They specialize in Mustangs but there Dyno is very nice. I second this, I have used the GRC dyne a couple times and they were great! They scheduled time, they had the dyno ready for me when I arrived, and when I came back to measure the change after a mod the...

Hi all, thanks for the replies! El Montie might work, but San Diego is a bit far, although I do go down there to visit friends from time to time. My work often takes me to the the Torrance / Long Beach area in addition to Orange County, so any recommendations for a place I can got to on my way to / ...

Hello all,

I have a set of aluminum wheels that I want to get cleaned up and then painted / clear coated / powder coated. Does anyone know a wheel repair shop in Orange County that they would trust?

Thanks!

The asian automotive companies are my clients, and all have a very active call center. The sales executives of those companies review the call center logs, and they regularly over-ride the regional managers. Loot up Subaru's corporate number for the US and start making a beef. They did, after all, g...

Colin, I found a spray bottle in the CTV that was left from a previous event with the name Webster on it. If it's yours, be sure to grab it at the next event.

George, my hero! I thought I'd lost that for good!

This was my first event since I moved in June, and it was great to be back out with all the wonderful people of the Cal Club region. Christine, great course, it was a lot of fun. Special thanks to Stephen Yeoh for not only giving advice in the first run session (while working as starter!), he then f...

Hello all, does anyone know of a good wheel repair / refinishing service in Orange County? I have a set of used RX-7 wheels that are nice aluminum but have some small scratches. I want to get them cleaned, re-polished, and then clear coated. There is the outside chance we'll end up painting / colori...

I submitted my app today. In the last 5 weeks, I've had two family funerals, bought a new house, spent 2 weekends up on a ladder painting tall ceilings, and I'm just plain broke-ass tired. I live 5 minutes from El Toro, have a points card, and did the pro-solo this year and last. I'm not able to com...

Oh yea, the Evo School is also very helpful, and I think they were the ones who told me how minimally important the launch is last year

Here's my $0.02. The course will be somewhere between 50 - 75 seconds, if last year was a guide. That means that shaving .5 second on the launch is essentially a rounding error. This is still an autocross. Focus on the rest of the course, looking ahead, getting the right line, and positioning your c...

Both days were run well and were lots of fun. Thanks to people on Saturday for not slapping me for my numberous spins. The one taking out the timing lights was particularly embarrassing, thanks for not beating me up on that. Special thanks to Theo for the ride-along, and to Jamie for taking the time...

So the run order on the 27th is the same as on the 28th? Also, I may be switching from a FWD in STU to a RWD in SSM. Do I need to adjust my registration prior to the event? Yes. Haha, confusion. Which question are you answering Rick? 1. No. The run order for Sat is not the same as Sunday. You will ...

What exactly is the BBQ portion of this Test and Tune on the 27th? What time is the BBQ, and what do we need to bring?

I'm in! I'll be signing wife up for this event too. Very excited!
