V.I.P.!

Hey if anyone found a big silver gustbuster umbrella, I lost it at the sunday event. I think it has my name on the edge somewhere in sharpy.

Registration is Open. Price goes up July 29th. Main event site: http://www.scca.com/eventitems.aspx?item=307&event=17058&hub=3" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; Current Registrations: http://www.motorsportreg.com/index.cfm/event/event.status/uidEvent/4B6B8256-EA57-49F2...

They are looking at evidence that suggests there isn't a market for the class. Here's one of my big questions: what evidence? Is it based purely on the number of letters the SEB gets, as Jason seems to suggest? Are they looking at the national-style events that have allowed SK competitors? Has ther...

it's usually a little over a grand per car to transport. Last years thread answers a lot of the questions, and has links to other good threads: viewtopic.php?f=7&t=4437" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

What wierd world are we in where ASP is the largest class?!

Better than marshall getting his helmet stuck on the steering wheel..

George did scream that last week on all the message boards I frequent. Perhaps you mean do it again though. The people who will miss it aren't the ones on the boards every minute. Its the ones who will log in a week before the event to get info. I'm been messaging or texting the folks I know that m...

I've always LFB'd my automatic trans cars (30 years since I've had a manual daily driver) so you'd think transitioning to LFB in my autocross car would be relatively seamless. That hasn't been the case. It's particularly difficult in hard breaking situations where I instictively put my right foot o...

There's the traveland USA right outside of marine way.

Jeff Wong wrote: Besides threshold braking, is there any noticeable time loss/gained from brake dragging compared to Toby? Assuming that the car is behaving properly of course.

Only if I drag the brake, which I rarely do. You have to train yourself to actively hold your foot back.

How are you guys calculating/predicting the benefits from LFB? If it's worth 1/2 second, I'd switch. Corner to corner DL1 data between Toby and I with the throttle and brake logged. There IS time lost in the moving the foot or the getting off the gas to hit the brake, but I usually lose that becaus...

I have racing shoes, GM was apparently more impressed with designing for heel and toe, which my peddles are well set for. It kills me to leave what I see as two or three seconds a run on the course because my feet get in the way. A lot of the fast guys right foot brake, Toby certainly does. It's pr...

You don't drive for Tom and NOT left foot brake... I think he asks me at every event, "Are you left foot braking?" :D Mark D. Certainly faster if you can actually fit both feet on the peddles. I haven't figured out how to shove two size 13's that close. Unfortunately it looks like the dat...

At what point did you make your mistake and what was it? Obviously I am a piker at this but looked like a really good run from what I saw. By the way although I find the car image funky, I appreciate your posting the run with data, as I am sure Randy does. Would love to see a post on how (generical...

I AM DISAPPOINT

yeah.. some kind.. haha.

Man, i feel bad for any ladies coming from other parts of the country. The West coast has had almost a lock on ladies pro solo for years now.

It's almost June - do you really want to drop hundreds of dollars on parts for a car you intend to replace in just a few months? You're just going to spend a lot of time and hassle sourcing and installing them only to turn around and take it all off, hassle with selling it all, taking a loss, then ...

or just click subscribe topic at the bottom, or really get with it on the modern age and just add it to an RSS reader.

Has anyone successfully submitted feedback recently? I've sent a few letters thru the SEBSCCA site with no reply and Brian Harmer tells me I'd didn't get a response because Nothing has been received from me! Why did they dump the old system? :x Yeah, I submitted one last week, seemed to work ok. Bu...
