Thanks Greg, Jeff, Andy.
Is duct tape considered a legal method of attachment? :D

To further muddy the waters...
I've read this thread closely as I had a friendly discussion this past weekend with one of our scrutineers about the legality of the intake I've run for years:

Thanks for the link Josh, now I know what the 100-octane fuel I've been buying from the 76 at Almaden & Foxworthy in San Jose is. :)
Now I just need to make sure that receipts from that station...
The following will appear on the SFR-SCCA website shortly and in the next issue of The Wheel.
As many here already know, IT runs in Group 5 at SFR-SCCA regional races.
Another possible cure, since coolant to the heater core still runs from the back of the engine, would be to plug the existing heater core hard lines at the firewall, and run the heater coolant hoses...
9.1.3.D.3.g:
The Miata cooling problem is basically this: when Mazda took the 323 transverse B6 (and its 1.8L version the BP) engine and shoehorned it into a longitudinal configuration, they...
Wondering if I can get opinions on the legality of this Miata coolant re-route kit:

Basically the kit caps the existing...
Bump...
Group 5 only has one practice session first thing on Saturday, so I know there are folks here who will be available for the rest of the day. Speak up or contact me please!
Hi all,
we're looking for a few more instructors for this Saturday's PDX (Performance Driving Experience) sessions at Thunderhill. Instructors sit alongside students in their cars during on-track...
You're largely missing the point. Spec Miata is supposed to be an entry-level series or at least one that caters to beginning racers. The R888 may be faster but SM racers have found that the RA1s are...
No sense letting $310 go to waste I guess... I'll do a few laps in the 'Speed 3 tomorrow. I flushed the brakes tonight and checked the pads--still around ~70% after 15k miles on the odometer, wow....
Anyone?
Tim, the details are here: http://www.percydesign2.com/lagunaseca/
It says "Your Miata (or OTM)". It took me a bit of Googling to find that "OTM" means "Other Than Miata". So pretty much anything...
I'm looking for someone to take my spot at the track day the day before the SFR double regional at Laguna Seca.
I'm signed up in one of the two 'A' (open passing) groups. Seven 20-minute sessions,...
We've added an IT Festival race this year for all IT classes (except ITE since they have their own Festival in October).
Any driver entered in the IT classes ITA, ITB, ITC, ITR, ITS, ITX on the...
7 ITS entries and I'm still out of commission, rebuilding my engine! :(
Have fun everyone!
100 pump gas falls into one or both of the above, so yes, 100-octane pump gas is POG.
I wasn't previously aware there was an IT POG initiative; signing up now...
Requirements/recommendations vary, and I'm not interested in making IT rules to enforce any such requirements.
In my particular case, the passenger seat is a Sparco Roadster "street" seat with a...
Yep, hence my second suggested wording.
At the same time I understand the desire to keep things (rules) as simple as possible. What competitive advantage could be gained by substituting back...
9.1.3.9.e currently reads:
I'd like it to see it amended to:
Or (to be more pedantic):
How would that not be considered "strained or tortured interpretation"? :)
Yeah, upon further hindsight, it was an ill-advised pass attempt on my part. I thought he knew I was coming, he thought I wouldn't try something so brazen. Oops. No harm, no foul, luckily; not a mark...
I qualified P2 (P5 overall), my best qually results ever, but had a terrible start; Wilson and Dion got past me off the start and I fought back to get past Dion in T4.
Doug's car lost a cylinder...
Anybody else testing on Friday?
4 ITS entries; I'm feeling pretty good about my chances for a top-10 finish! If I finish putting my engine back together this weekend and if it doesn't go kaboom, that is...
Me --> :D ...
