Re: New to the forum

Manny, Just sign up for an event. There are really nice people that will give you advice and all the help you need. I recommend getting there early, register and attend the novice course walk. Find people in your class and ask questions. By the way, don't modify your car to go fast. Learning to driv...

Re: Need engine tuner recommendation

Thanks Randy. I did post on Corvette Forum but not the SoCal specific page; that is a good idea.

Need engine tuner recommendation

My son put long tube headers and a vararam cold air intake on his 2002 Corvette coupe. Any recommendations for a local engine tuner that can get the fuel and spark maps updated?

Thanks in advance!

Re: Anyone find an air gauge at the El Toro event?

Thanks Jonathan. Unfortunately, I didn't find it. It was a 0-60 psi Joe's Racing gauge given to me by my son.

Re: Setup questions- new to Street class

Spoke with Sam Strano this week and got some good advice. He says the base C6 with a auto trans isn't a good starting spot because of the wheel & brakes size, final drive ratio, and the heavier trans. I'm going to see if I can trade my car for a C6 M6 with Z51 or a C5Z. If you know of a good ver...

Setup questions- new to Street class

Need some help. I haven't competed since the stock class days (i.e. Hoosiers). I'm planning to run in AS with my daily driver equipped with Falcon Azeris. Questions: What static alignment specs do these tires want? What is a good starting point for tire pressure? What are the competitive tires in th...

Re: Need some advice - new to LA

Thanks Rich! I look forward to meeting you. I've had the pleasure of meeting Pete.

I'm running back home in Texas with my son this weekend but still need to get out to a LA area event, even if just to watch.

Let's get together sometime!

Re: Need some advice - new to LA

Been busy with my move and haven't found a place with a garage to bring my STS car out. If anyone has a co-drive available, I would appreciate the opportunity. If someone has a garage and a helmet, I offer my car for use.

Thanks,

Danny

Need some advice - new to LA

Hello, I recently moved to Torrance, CA from El Paso, Texas and need some advice about car storage. I would like to bring my STS Miata from Texas but don't have a place to park / store it. Is there a good indoor place to store my car between the So Cal Solo event sites that isn't too expensive? Than...
