Re: May FasTrack

Just switching the class to street tires alone would be a step forward in terms of tire performance usability. With street tires you can still flip them on the rim and get great performance before they cord. Flipping R-Comps seems to be a waste of time/money IMO with the customers I see. They just ...

.... the SEB is "picking winners and losers" with rules. I don't think it's the point of the SEB to "dumb down" or try and "equalize" different design cars. Consider that cars that benefit too much could be re-classed up or cars that become uncompetitive can be re-clas...

Re: May FasTrack

My thoughts: I think additional allowances of any kind in the entry level category should be discouraged, but if you are going to allow changes to alignment beyond factory methods, it should be allowed for all cars regardless of suspension configuration. All cars are not equal. Some gain negative c...

Re: May FasTrack

First, I should mention that I'm personally interested in what you SoCal folks are thinking about this proposal, both due to the good contingent of stock class drivers and also from the history with SK. The primary driver for the proposed camber allowances is to allow McStrut cars more static cambe...

Re: El Toro ProSolo Video and Photo Thread

When my back was turned some desperate individual jumped in to the Prius C and took some runs at the El Toro Tire Rack SCCA ProSolo. Thus far we have not identified the suspect, but our crack team is working to track him down. Our biggest clue to who this may be comes at 1:13 in the video, he seems...

Re: THE PRO SOLO IS JUST AROUNG THE CORNER!

I normally run my 04 WRX in CST, that class obviously doesn't exist for pro solos and my modifications to my car put it in SM, which allows for slicks and R comps. Unfortunately I only have s...

Re: Clutch Slippage

About 2-3 times over the last 2 mos. or so, when I've been on the freeway and downshifted from either 6th into 5th or 5th into 4th, it seemed like my clutch slipped a little bit. It was so slight I could never confirm it with the tach, so I just wrote it off to turbo lag. On my way home from nats, ...
