It's not what's before the lights that would cause me concern; it's the amount and characteristics of the space that follows. The area before the lights is what caused the issues this time Bob. Over use of cones made the finish hard to see and the preceding corner is what made the space after the f...

Mako Koiwai wrote:Correct Aaron ... by clicking on my link, I wanted to remind people to do the survey.

Did your Survey have questions about street tires for stock classes?

Nope.

Btw mako, everyone got a unique link for that survey, so you just linked everyone to your copy..

Others, If you're an scca member you should have your own e-mail.

Finish shoot was really just an oddly spaced 5 cone slalom setup slightly unfriendly. Could have been done with 5 cones and a pointer. It's slightly odd to have the finish on a slalom cone, but I managed to get it stopped every time.. even the time with the worker right off course after the finish w...

Aaron, We NEED the following: 1. Polls 2. Random quotes with abilty for users to add I'm guessin' the polls part could be part of the present software, the quotes, probably not. 1. Polls are currently in and implemented, available in Solo, Events and the Club boards. Also available in the Comitee b...

Hot, the birthdays announcements thing works. Happy Birthday Daniel Tenenbaum

Thanks No Bucks for a great weekend.

Steve A.

Unfortunately for us, if we ran over Steve's air gauge we'd be doing him a favor.

It had been run over.

That was Max's, someone ran over it on Saturday while it was in the top of a cone in grid.

This is just my noob opinion but to me a class called "stock" should be exactly that...no tweaking of the car allowed. The car should be as it is off the showroom floor maybe with your choice of DOT approved tires. I ran my first event last month in D-Stock and was curious how the Impreza...

I've made my own hollow 4130 bars with tubing and arm materials from Aircraft Spruce. You can make stiff bars without reheat-treating, but a more flexible bar will develop too much stress. Corner me at an event if you need more info. I can show you the math to pick tubing dimensions for various sti...

Yeah San Diego has been hold about a 5 entrant lead. Get those entries in, or I'll never hear the end of it from Mark! Also, a Test & Tune period has been confirmed for Fri from 2 to 5pm. Cost is not set in stone, but $2/run is expected plus a short work assignment. This should be a larger test...

I've still got a couple chief positions to fill. These are a great way to get some experiance and help out our region. I'm looking for: Food (Saturday): I'll probably give PFM first dibs on this. I'm pretty sure PFM is disbanded or at least non-active during the summer. Impound/Protest: Should be s...

Curt, who's gonna blow his economic stimulus check on Dunlops...no...screw it, Bridgestones. They cost MORE. I just pulled the trigger on the 'Stones, but I screwed up. $130 ea. for the 'Stones, on special at The Rack, $119 ea. for the 'Lops, but you get a $100 rebate on a set of 4 'Stones. So I'm ...

rental cars for all. each club gets assigned a national chain that the clubs cars have to come from. you get to rent 2 of what ever they carry for the weekend, and all the team members use it. shouldn't cost more than ~$30 a head for a good size team. we can get rid of a lot of useless classes that...

Maybe we just need a Prolog competition.. Car and Track who can go fastest. Nabisco Style.

I've got way more gran turismo hours then hours of racing anything else. The visual part is 90% of what you need to go fast. Being able to visually recognize oversteer and correct it before you can really feel it is a HUGE benefit. Granted the really fast people make balance corrections before you ...
