Simon,
I haven't used them, but Chuck Waer had these guys work on his MINI, and he was happy with them...

August 4th and 5th... in case I'm not the only one who didn't know the dates!

Fixed that for you...

What the what?

Makes you think the people at R&T are mad at Mazda for something...

Doesn't a used MINI fit the bill?

Anybody else hear the Dukes of Hazard theme song in their head when they saw that pic?

CST FTW!

Heyward was looking for a car to co-drive if you think you could benefit from having an evo instructor as a co-driver...

CST is our local catch-all class. Think of it as SM on road tires (140 or higher tread wear).
So long as your car is safe to drive, it's probably legal.

Wow Curt! That's way cooler than my lame excuse of not wanting to waste good race tires only to finish 10 seconds behind Kiesel on pax in R1...

But National courses Never have optional slaloms, and everything is just practice for Nationals Is it bad that I agree with Mako? :) Having to remember which way to go on multiple slaloms is just needless annoyance. All slaloms used to be optional! I don't think I saw a pointer cone for the first 1...

I just have a genuine engineering question how it is that such a short engine does not seem to get you closer to 50/50, or for that matter slightly rear-biased, say 47/53. Maybe the engine is short, but not that light? the shorter engine means the CG of the engine is closer to the front axle if you...

What? No mention of the Lincoln variant? That was a dead give-away...

Wow, I read that about 5 times and I'm still confused; that is the most complicated clasification method I have ever seen for anything. Looks like he could put at least 5 different class designations on his car. Why isn't there just a single class to fit each car? The handicaping seems like the old...

Don, I tried for 2 hours to get on that forum, so I could see posts.....most complicated process ever. I was not able to get past the title page, with the picture of a Jeep autocross car. I think I now have a Yahoo Email account, and probably managed to get on a Yahoo spam list too. Steve, it's a p...

Thanks for the friendly response; I didn't expect to bump into one of the guys I talked to Sunday. That Elan would no doubt eat my lunch; in the old days, more often than not, an elan would take FTD, making our A and B prod vettes look silly. I guess I will try CST if my street tires,(Yoko A032 Rs)...

Steve, As the car sits now, it is legal for SCCA's D-Mod class, which allows your full racing slicks. This class is for anything that looks like a car with a motor under 2000cc, or a turbo motor under 1400cc. Auto engines only. The fast car nationally is a Lotus Elan with a 2000cc Cosworth. There is...

You DID see the left/right scroll bar below the photo...right?

Apparently neither of you knows to click on the picture...

So in all the publicity shots, the driver is on the left side of the chassis.
But in the Buttonwillow video the driver is on the right...

Will would (don't they make brakes?) probably have a hard time figuring it out but we'd be glad to see you in it }:) Speak for yourself! :lol: Steve, before considering such a purchase, consider not only fitting, but getting in and out. It's challenging even for the physically fit. Since I"m n...

The red car is a Lotus Elan.
