I'm the OP for this question last year...
Just wondering if anyone knows why the rulebook specifically excluded the P-Zero Corsa. It has a treadwear rating of 60, so it's automatically excluded from STR class anyway (like all R-Compound tires), so why does the rulebook specifically mention this tire?

Re: Wanted - Wheel Repair
Al Reed has been in the wheel repair refinishing business in SoCal longer than anybody I think. I've been going to him for 25 yrs. He's chromed wheels for Penske Indy Cars when they've come to Long Beach. He's the man for the Porsche Club of America, they send wheels to him from all over the country...

Re: 2011 AutoX Novice School OPEN for REGISTRATION!!!
I'm in!
I've done about a half dozen saturday practice days of SCCA solo, so I still consider myself a noob.
BTW, I know sunday is all track time, but on saturday, is there track time also, or is it classroom time mostly?

Re: How to sign up for Novice School
Ok, thanks for the link. That will help with my friends for the Street Survival School.
However, I'd like to take the Novice School the same weekend. I'm assuming this is an autocross Novice school for all, not just the women's school that's sometimes offered?
Thanks again.

Which are illegal Pirelli's?
OK, so I'm a newbie, running an 03 S2000. I'm running uncompetitively in the STR class because of mods I did just for the street, and don't have to bucks to convert yet to a competitive class. So, I'm just having fun right now! I was offered some street tires for a good price...some Pirelli P-Zero's...

If it's still available, and he's thinking of parting it out, and he doesn't skip shift, I'd be interested in the gearbox.

Re: Post Car Classing Help Questions Here!
Thanks Robert. I think that's what happened to my front tires I had on the S2000. They were Goodyears best, Eagle F1 Asymetric, but after a few autocrosses and laps at Adams Kart track in Riverside, they lost a lot of grip, even though lots of tread left. Even me, with no experiece, could feel it. C...

Well, I'm not referring to their trailers in particular, just their products in general.

They also have a 20% off coupon everymonth in Car...

Where is this novice school? How do I sign up? David there's a novice school coming up in June in the SD region... have you offered to pay for his entry? or asked if he'd like to come out to a practice day for ride-alongs (it's been 6 years, he might like it more riding along now that he can drive)?...
