Re: Drones at events
The only way they are allowed is if (1) the drone operator has FAA certification to operate the drone and... Mike If the SCCA, or even SoCal Solo wants to outlaw them, they should just say "not allowed". Period. But relating to FAA, there is no certification possible or required by the FA...

Re: GRA June 7 Practice Entry Lists
Thanks! It appears I already had an account, but I didn't remember my SCCA number. Waiting for an answer to whether my 15.9 year old daughter is permitted to run. She has >1000 miles on her learner's permit, and level 1 performance driving school. Same rules as driving on the road. You or other adu...

Re: getting back into the game
Championship events (now called "Autocross Sunday" for the everyone wins, cause I don't want to compete that's scary, child society) are both online, and in person. Craig, Buddy....you know very well that this is just an effort at better marketing. Newbies may be reluctant, or misundersta...

Stephen is working on some "fine tuning" I believe, and we'll have to see the results from that.

Re: CASOC Event Weekend - May 3-4 @Autoclub Speedway
Despite the heat, we had a great time. The only thing better than Saturday was today. We loved the course. Christine, you are to be commended. What a fun and FAST course. And, personally, Sunday's always seem to be better when the course is reversed. And for the Event Master to call an audible "...

Re: Ignition Switch Re-program
Once you replace the hardware, the car will not start until the programming is complete, so you have to 1) have the car towed to the shop/dealer or 2) have someone come to you. Thanks Steve and Wil. I received the new unit w/ Honda keys and have installed it. I've pretty much decided to trailer it ...

Re: Qstarz GPS Products
I've never used a QStarz device, so I can't speak to it specifically. However, I know my BadElf logger device has an auto-record setting that can be set to walking, driving, or flying (or something like that) which in effect changes the speed at which you have to be traveling before it starts loggi...

GPS Product Set-Up
Originally, I was asking about a specific product, the Qtarz BT-Q1000eX. Although I get a good "track" around the neighborhood with the unit on the dash of the car, I cannot seem to get data when walking or riding a bicycle. When the software "reads" the log, there IS data there ...

Ignition Switch Re-program
I recently purchased and will be installing a new ignition module in my wife's 2005 Honda Civic. Having removed the old one, I can say it's probably a fairly easy install. The unit I purchased is a Standard Motors product which I understand is about as close to OEM as you can get. Comes with Honda k...

Re: Local vs national run idea
After attending my first national event I realize why we used to keep our local events to 3 runs (participation aside). It was a real challenge getting it done in 3. Having 4 runs locally is appreciated and I like that as well so..... I think we need more runs...like 8 @Nationals, and 10 or 15 loca...

Re: Sharon and Ed Holley, did something happen to the Ford?
Just past the 395 overpass, the tow truck was on site and it looked like you were going to unload the Miata, everything OK? Ya, Seb got it right. After some strategizing, the AAA tow driver hauled the Expedition to the next exit, a couple miles to a Park-n-Ride next to a Mobil station at the 15 and...

Re: 2014 Lone Pine Time Trials
You really requiring Snell 05 SA per the flyer? Very few autocrossers own SA helmets. I assume that's wrong as the registration page lists Snell 95 as acceptable. I assume that's also wrong. Certainly one of them is. Looks like a change to the '14 flyer. I can't seem to find where Bret told me the ...

so, you ran STS with a torsen? 1. The word "presume" is used in the ad, since you cannot tell from the outside, and I've never taken it apart. 2. IF Torsen, it certainly has not benefited me in STS. 3. My competitors were communicated with prior to running in STS and they had no problem w...
