Re: Place to measure center of gravity height

It looks like GM published the center-of-gravity height as 20.7" at some point on their media site: http://media.chevrolet.com/media/us/en/chevrolet/vehicles/bolt-ev/2017.tab1.html It wasn't in an earlier copy from 2016, and archive.org has not crawled it this year so I'm not sure when it appe...

Re: Everybody - Please read - Club consolidation

The reason behind the proposal is the lack of participation/interest in most clubs. I totally agree with you here: motivation for me is that whatever we do, it should help quality of events as well as quantity of participants. Will this proposal do that? I don't know, but keeping the system as-is d...

Hi Eric! What color is the 240Z?

I'll be around wearing some orange, shouldn't be too hard to find. I can get you squared away on passenger waivers and helmets whenever you come by.

Re: SMF with stripped interior

You can only strip from behind the front seats or something - and even then, I think it's just rear seats? Been a while since I've done SM, but you can cut the interior to fit a cage, but you can't completely remove it.

Re: Will we run in the rain 2/18 & 2/19?

Can you care to elaborate a bit more on that? Racing in the rain is statistically slower than in the dry, so doesn't it act as a handicap? Speed has less to do w/ it than the car control skills required at the limit. The rain is less forgiving to "sloppy" driving. It also helps that it's ...
