I'll have my truck there. We can transfer cones into the back and throw from there.

door specifically designed to allow chucking directly from CTV. no transfer should be required.

Looking for any update on good online traffic school, the provided list with the ticket is enormous... Pushed the yellow light too far and got 0.5 sec red light automatic camera ticket... Thanks I thought you just ignore red light tickets these days. http://articles.latimes.com/2011/jul/27/local/la...

you should talk to Kj.

hey his car made it at least 100' after the last repair.

I've always pictured Steve as more of a CP kind of guy.

Rick - I cancelled earlier, so can you please remove me. Thanks. did you actually cancel (in MSR) or just tell Rick that you want to cancel. I just told Rick, but since you mention it, I've cancelled in MSR as well now :) well would you look at that, you're off the list now. it's amazing what happe...

in general autox people are spoiled and would rather take their toys and go home than have to play with other kids. It applies across all classes, not just ST.

I hope it rains on Saturday! Rain practice! We don't get it that often here in sunny SoCal. Then I hope it clears for Sunday so Team Berry/Grice doesn't destroy us by 3 seconds. }:) we might be fast in the rain but on index everything stock or st will destroy us. ...unless we happen to have a GS AW...

I've registered for the Autocross Sunday like normal,but I'm getting the following message "Although online payment is optional, your registration is not complete until payment is received." AND I'm not showing up in the Attendee List.. I've refreshed, closed the browser, and reopened etc...

Any chance we can bend the no passengers rule for a couple of runs on Sunday? I'm looking to get some feedback for the Street Class Advisory Cmte. If anyone has contact info for Sean Fenstermacher or Jeff Stuart, could you please send it to me at cashmo at hotmail dot com? Thanks Jeff Cashmore if y...

so was anyone ever going to make a post announcing that the practice was open?

sounds like fun to me also.

Thanks Marshall, I think you made the decision for me. Not enough benefits to make up for the added cost. Maybe I'll go the NASCAR route and run a 30 psi 300 degree cooling system :D i agree. all 'real' racecars (F1, prototypes, ...even nascar) use a prepresurized sealed cooling system. something l...

i've never used it but just doing some research here are some things i come up with. CONS: -npg (propylene glycol) is more dense than water, 8.6lb/gal vs 8.3lb/gal @25c -it's got a lower thermal conductivity. 119 mw/m*k vs 607 mw/m*k -it's got a lower specific heat capacity. 2.51 J/g/k vs 4.2 J/g/k ...

i've re-calculated some results from last years pro solo events and i think the new psi factors are pretty close. i mean i guess they should be since last years data IS the basis for the index. anyone else notice that there is a planned *MIDYEAR INDEX CHANGE* schedule for june, after the spring nats...

They worked, but it frustrated the heck out of me when I would go full "minus" to count the sweeps and they would get stuck there. I broke several "tools" off trying to move the adjuster off the stuck position. Drove me nuts. i'm no expert, but aren't you supposed to count turns...

Anyone else find it hard to read Fastrack these days? They just put a reference number, and no info about what they are talking about. Where do we find what the reference number is refering to? I don't remember what my reference # for allowing the C4 Corvette into STU. you should have gotten an ema...

you mean problems other than being a VW?

we have classes for all national classes, SMF included. We just might not have anyone local that is actually competing in SMF. By all means bring your car out and join us, no demoding necessary.

I am not sure how my car would be classed. It is a 2008 Saleen S302E, no internal egine mods beyond what Saleen did when they built the car, however, it does have a custom cooling system and an electric water pump as well as a 10% overdrive crank pully for the supercharger and long tube headers.

so who is the new owner?
