Sean, Please measure the back space of the rim to hub mounting surface. They might fit for my BMW. Thank you. David Barrish David, Use my lower chart (from Doug's Scirocco parts book) to calculate back spacing from offset. The upper chart shows the VW A1 wheel numbers. It looks like 8" with ET...

The tires shown are 205 50 15 Dunlp D40 M2s but are very old and not worth driving on.

For sale Racing Sparco NSII replicas Made in Japan Size: 15 x 6.5 ET 40 (40mm offset) Bolt pattern: 4x100 and 4x114 They fit BMW e30, VW 4lug (A1, A2, A3 chassis), Miata MX-5 gen 1&2 and 80's - 90's HONDA CRX / CIVIC. The wheels have the original factory silver paint in the center and the lips ...

Move from CS to DS (2487, 4744): Mini Cooper S JCW (2006-’11) Mini Clubman S JCW (2009-’11) They'll definitely be getting a letter from me on this one. Can't imagine I'll be the only one. Seems pretty ludicrous if it's better suspended, has more power and has always run in a higher class than the r...

We could do what both Doug and Bob describe above, but then what do we do with the other 100 or so drivers we turn away? That's not customer oriented to me. Comparing our championship events to their practices plus a few competition runs is meaningless because they limit entries. The fact that our ...

As far as trying to correlate reasons as to why Stock numbers may be down to why people run ST, I doubt the majority of ST class drivers would directly state it is specifically because they want to run on street tires. Stock: I think it is because of the stock class scramble and the economic down t...

Looking at this year's points for SCCA classes v.s. PAX or local classes you can see ST is the largest set of classes by far.

I don't like 4 runs on Solo Sunday. I like just 3, but I am kind of on the sport side of the argument as a driver. The last time I went to SV the drivers got 25-30 runs and quit early (3:30). I was teaching not driving. They had several young drivers in stock cars. It was fun to see all the smiles. ...

Jason, I am telling you how many younger drivers see SCCA solo.

This is a complicated problem. SCCA has made it more frustrating for younger drivers with stock cars to get in the sport or stick with it. Tires are one issue but car classing changes frustrates people when they get pushed out of the game. Your SK PAX is greatly altered with class changes as well as...

We are SD members.

Okay, a decision has been made. I agree with it. But I'd like to discuss what we can learn from this. And if we need to define things better in our supps. I have some friends that have grumbled a bit about this one offline. Jon stopped at the missing directional, but didn't point it out or otherwis...

What about a rule book change?

Jonathan Lugod, ST Rerun approved for Sunday March 20th, 2011.

Yes that is what I am talking about.

I've seen the video of the run. The pointer next to the standing cone was missing, but another two pointer cones were present, thus making the pointer cone look like it was out of the box.. He should get a rerun - it looked really weird. I think you wanted to say ---- > thus making the APEX cone lo...

OK folks... A driver sees that the pointer cone (first of three) on an apex cone is missing and stops for it The car before the driver in question picked up one cone and took it (details not important). It looks like the corner worker replaced the standing apex cone but did not have a cone to put in...

Some outstanding issues from the March 20th event: 1) We are evaluating a provisional re-run. (ST CLASS) 2) We need to have a pre-event check off sheet (fire bottles, extra cones and red flags on course before 8:00 AM etc... ) 3) Temporary Membership forms (filled out and blank) need to be in a defi...

Tech and gate went just great too. to the crew.
Each morning the gate workers were on the job before the sun was up. to the crew.

I want to thank EVERYONE for putting on events over the last 25 plus years. The March weekend was literally a 4 ring circus between the EVO school, the skid pad, the kart course and the main course. To make things interesting we had some humidity, wind and even some hail. We had a few cars break thi...

FYI,
When you arrive at El Toro use the same main gate we use all the time (near the balloon). as you drive toward our event we may have you use a different turn off from the accesses road on Saturday and Sunday. Keep your eyes open for a sign as you drive in.

I'm trying to register for the March 20th El Toro event, but the registration website will not let me complete the registration process unless I purchase a weekend SCCA membership. But I am already an SCCA member. I can't seem to find anywhere to add my membership info and can't register unless I b...

I made the changes on MSR.

You should pack an umbrella and you can use it when you are not working. We may have to make a safety call on umbrellas when working so try to bring hoods so you don't need an umbrella. I don't like it when people run with umbrellas and slip. Don't hit cars with your umbrella in grid or paddock. Don...
