Re: Jan 24-25 Practice Event Thread
Hey everyone, I'm new to the forum and new to California and looking to test out my car out here. I'm curious if it's too late to sign up for Sunday? And if it's not how do I go about it? Thanks for the last minute help! You're in luck. At the event, it was noted that there are 2-3 spots open for t...

Re: Tire leak @ bead - remove wheels or use "flat tire repair"?
Thanks for the input guys. Tire shop checked it, turned out to be....
mud stuck between the bead & wheel!
How that mud got there, I have no clue. These tires & rims were sitting around for a bit.
I'm back in business, thanks!

Tire leak @ bead - remove wheels or use "flat tire repair"?
Has anyone run autocross after using the "flat tire repair"? I know it's gross & tire mounters hate it, but I'm hoping it works well. These tires are new, so if I use the flat repair, it will be for a while. -------------------------------------------------- I had these mounted a coupl...

Re: Jan 24-25 Practice Event Thread
O, one question I had, is there a $10/person gate fee like when speed ventures holds practice there?
and if there is, the gate fee is separate each day?

Which class do you run? Just run the biggest rim & tire size you can for the class .
You can always join CST & run 17x10's all around, yummy.

Re: Car bras and Cones
I know Roger Ang (Red Porsche Boxster) runs a car bra @ autox (and possibly daily) - his is color matched to the car. He loves it. I never notice any cone marks on his car... but I don't notice most cone marks on any cars. I've seen a few things rip off of cars by cones, but a car bra hasn't been on...

Re: Nov 22, 23 at AAA Speedway, Speedventures, no working cones
I guess if that includes the inside lot. We aren't using the track (at least not the autox guys). And they want $10/person, not a car, which makes it even worse. Again, up til yesterday after email discussion with them, the gate fee wasn't even listed on the web site for the autox. Now that it is li...

Re: Nov 22, 23 at AAA Speedway, Speedventures, no working cones
I had originally thought it was a mistake (i.e. copy & paste email from their track events). NOPE! They are charging a gate fee per person (again, as of this post - I've been emailing telling them I think it's pretty ridiculous) for AAA Speedway once you're in the inner track. EDIT: They have up...

Just FYI for anyone planning on signing up. I registered and received an email about a "$10 gate fee" per person. I emailed Speed Ventures, and yes, there is a gate fee. Letting you guys know since I didn't see it anywhere on there before paying for it as of this posting (their other event...

Re: Nov 22, 23 at AAA Speedway, Speedventures, no working cones
it is a smaller lot, so course is tighter, lower speed than CSCC courses. in the past, it has always been small car friendly at Speedventures auto-x I'm sorry, I don't know anywhere @ the speedway other than the Green Lot we're at. So where is that on the map? http://www.autoclubspeedway.com/images...

Are you guys going to forgo (sp?) the $40 late fee for us since we were just notified about it?
Sounds like a great event. I've always wanted to run Streets of Willow, but I've been too scared to do it without instruction first.
