Re: May FasTrack

I just feel like its another can of worms catered towards OLD CARS and I can also understand some cars that are stuck with oddball size rims. However, you would be hard pressed to find 17x6.5" for a Honda S2000 (99-03)AP1 since those came with 16x6.5" stock ....etc.. IMHO the primary reas...

Re: May FasTrack

As someone who's BMW is currently maxed out at -1.125deg of camber I'm pumped for camber plates. I wreck the outside shoulder as my car rolls all over it during sweepers. Unfortunately I agree, that it will just be a couple events until people are showing up with custom plates to get some absurd am...

Re: April Fastrack

I think the "camber spec" will be controlled with the way it is done. No cutting of towers and no drilling of holes and possibly no top plate assembly would limit the amount and prevent damage to the cars. I agree that some cars will get faster and others will not. Street class (if passed)...

Re: April Fastrack

Of course but that's what racing is about, there is simply no way you can make every car available competitive and the new rules won't do much to change that no matter how hard you try. It clearly is not the goal to make every car available competitive. I don’t see too many LTDs out on Sunday chasi...

Before anyone turns their world upside down, remember...it's just a proposal at this point.

Re: April Fastrack

Yes wheel dia and tire selection can make or brake you. 13s have no options for good street tires unless you have them custom made or import them (and you can't use non DOT). 13s have several R-comps. Cars with 13s really need to run on race tires. 14s have one size (185) and one tire that fits most...

The next shoe to drop will be the "30" year rule in the stock class's. I belive that your Miata will be the car that makes the SCCA reveiw the exclusion of cars from the Stock class at National events.

Re: Where are all the B Stockers?

Just an observation,

RTR looks like fun but RTR really looks like CS on street tires. Given that RTR is a PAX class it is possible that RTR could shift year to year. It is kinda sad to see so many of the stock classes clustered into one RT class. It is nice to see all the new CS cars having fun.
