Re: SCCA - Dixie National Tour (Round 1) Results
http://www.scca.com/documents/resultfiles/Sunday%20Final%20-%20R3.pdf Looks like Toyo takes it 1-2 in ST (Street Touring). Not only looks like, they did! And Hoosier takes, and Khumo takes and...

Re: EXPLAIN these iPhone Photos !!!
I would guess partially from the distortion of the window, but that wouldn't contribute to all of it.

Re: founder of 'TapouT' killed street racing in newport beach
Very sad people choose to drive at speeds necessary to cause that much damage on public roads, and the aftermath it brings. Its rather freaky watching the hazards blinking, especially the bulb on the ground in the rubble where the drivers door would be, but the tail lights are not lit. Were they run...

Re: Looking for help to prep for Tour / Pro
Criag - I have some 15x7 Kosei T1-S lying around with some fairly worn Azenis on them. You are welcome to borrow them for the Tour/Pro. You can either use the tires or throw them away and mount something else up. You'll need to pick them up from my place though in Trabuco Canyon, or I reckon I coul...

Looking for help to prep for Tour / Pro
Having a blast in the Miata so far... AND.... I know I can't be completely competitive this year.... but would love to borrow for these two events some items to improve my chances from bottom of barrel (or legality) problems. I know many have extra rims lying around, holding them for various reasons...

Since I can't afford to be competitive for the Tour & Pro this year in STS, and the only "unmod" I have to do at this time is put the stock air box back in... SK2 will limit me to stock sized rims (aka 14") is the Falcon 615 still the best tire in a 14, or is there something bette...

Yeah, they're not separated between SK1 and SK2, and I think we have a real AM entry there as well in Randy Chase (unless he's driving something different or registered in the wrong class). So are we running heads up against AM? Tom, Mark, do either of you know how this is going to work? For the Pr...

Re: SSM Exhaust rules ?
Not familiar with the class specifics. Based upon your post.... and the rule you listed, yes it is very generic. Basically it's allowing for the local event sites need (rules) to be met without placing any specific restrictions on your design. In SD at Qualcomm, there is a 93 db max. If you break 90...

Re: Autocross Patching Party!
Wouldn't it make more sense to patch asphalt with the same, not concrete? Now will just chip out new asphalt around the concrete patches as they expand and contract at different rates / temperatures.
Our worst freeways in So Cal are the ones they apply asphalt over the top of existing concrete.
