Re: Testing E85

Thanks Marshall. Since the content test is water-absorption based, then I would think significant water contamination should show up in the test results. I assume driving the "clear space" at the top down. Which I'm not seeing. But I still can't explain why mine seems to test at E90. Most...

Re: Miata NC3 Engine Swaped NC1 legal in CS?

That's a no go on the engine swap to stay in CS. Why's that? Is the no go on any engine swap, or just swapping outside of technical car generation? NC1 and NC3 are both CS; it's still the same [NC] generation, CS class engine to CS class car. Except for modifications authorized below, Street Catego...

This is why I feel grateful to be in SoCal, even our smallest lots are larger than this. Oh and we can autox all year round.

Indeed Reed. Only after I had trouble braking did I start to watch other cars on the course. It turns out, if your tires are not on the ground, they dont grip well.
