Jeff, we are the Milky Way, and everything visable is the Milky Way. That band of brighter stars can be seen, as Will said, from SE to NW. Good source of info:

I have tried: 1. Little round plastic hide-a-cord stuff needed more room for more cables! 2. 1" x 1/2" rectangular hide-a-cord stuff needed less room and the adhesive removes paint, drywall and everythng else it sticks to. 3. Removed baseboard and forced the cable down in the slot between ...

How about some Hoosier slicks? I have a set of (4) - 20.0 x 9.5" x 13 Hoosier C3000, R25B compound tires that I'm looking to get out of my way. These came on some 13"x7" wheels that I bought. Looks like that are approx half-way through their life - still gummy. I can take photos if a...

It looks like Stanley and I will be leaving Riverside Saturday morning---in Stan's big rig... Palero you might send Stanley a PM or email if you are still looking for a ride.

Gio, The Jeep is a modified Legacy chassis with a Turbo Cobalt engine that happens to look somewhat like a Jeep. The reason for the year (1947), 80" by about 50" wheel base and width.... Del Long build---to beat the little green bugeye.... My bet is on the Bugeye

Thanks for the clarification Bill. Didn't know it was a Sun/Mon vs. Sat/Sun event. If it was dry on the 2nd day, what was the issue that had AS, BS, CS, ES, STS (and several others) all running 3-5 second slower on the second day vs. the first day.

Re: SCCA Solo Class Article/Discussion
Hi Reijo, I think it's mostly the opposite. Most noobs come to the sport already having done a bunch of (questionable) mods and get told they can't run in stock class. I don't think there is much you can do to rectify that, except if they haven't done much, explain that they can put it back to stoc...

Take your pick from the group of classes that we have locally that really do not have any rules: CSM: whatever you got on R-Dot tires (probably fits your idea of unlimited). CST: Whatever you got on Street tires (probably fits your idea of unlimited). Historic: pick a class (DSP, GP, DM, EM). SCCA c...
