Bill,

It's real simple. Take a Reg/Nat class such as SM. Take the average lap times of Nat vs. Reg. drivers in a single event. Of course there's a difference. In order to keep a Nat. license...

I think many of you have missed the point in allowing IT cars to participate in Production classes. It is an opportunity to move up in the level of competition and also the level preparation of your...

I've been watching this thread for awhile now and have decided to put in my .02 cents.
Last year I ran an ITB Golf in the SARRC, ECR and at the ARRC. I put in a good effort to prepare my car...

Let's get Real !!!

VIR is heaven !!

Lowe's is a blast NASCAR style !!

Rockingham is a .......................... hole !!

Been there, done that,got the $2 trophy !!

Production cars 20 or so years ago used to be limited to VIN in some respect. A good example of was a ruling that the Yenko Stinger Corvair had to have been blessed by Don Yenko himself. No copies of...

My concern is building a car from a shell and having it's VIN not relating to the legal engine, trans. or other heritage. Then having some weasel protest me for one letter in the VIN that signifies...

Let me throw another wrench in the works. GM cars have a VIN digit to signify the type transmission. Does that mean one can't convert an auto. to a 5 speed and be a legal IT car ? Other types of...

I need some help in determining just what ITCS 17.1.4.C means as far as update/backdate phrases. My question is can you take (for example) a 1987 VW Golf that came with a 16v engine/trans. (hence...

VERY Cool video Russ !

The choppiness of the images assimilates the tempo of the string instruments and the mania of the car at the limits. I like it ! :happy204:

The warm-up sessions are a great way to break something or write a car off . Been there, done that !
Two qualifying sessions of 15-20 minutes would be just right.

What happened to our 40...

Didn't mean to give the hillbilly a "bad steer". It's just that alignment on race cars is not black and white.
Sure a little toe-out (1/8") gives one an advantage in cornering. The inside wheel...

The roundy-round boys use some toe-out to enable a better turn-in at the next corner (real soon)
Toe-in gives you straight line stability. Without it you'll be herding your car down any...

I want to chase down and pass Mark Coffin at his home track!

And I want a toilet made of gold but it just isn't in the cards !

Seriously, wish you big luck passing him ! I'll...

I agree, popularity of a class does bring on competition and with it more attention to driving skill and car prep i.e. $$$. But competition is a GOOD thing. Don't you really want to know how good you...

The blessing of SCCA Nat. status doesn't mean jack ! Just look at the ARRC . The level of competitiveness is equal to the runoffs;fine driving and well prepared cars !! There are cars at both races...

Cambell,

I've got 4 #2 rings in .020 over for a 1.8L GTI if that'll help let me know. They came with the new pistons .

Anybody know the results of the Daytona double SARRC ? I don't see it posted anywhere yet.

Ya, I could have filed a counter protest but the grounds were weak to start with. I wouldn't bother Stewards for such a weiner mishap. My car wasn't damaged,I didn't lose my 3rd place finish for...

The SARRC/MARRS shootout (knockout) was pretty exciting for me and my pink Golf. Saturdays race I nearly collected a very slow Flee-esta coming out of the esses and spun big time. Sunday I got used...

Just curious about gas (fuel) mileage. What mileage do you people get,at what speeds,towing what kind of trailer and est. weight with what tow vehicle. I guess I'll go First. I tow an open trailer...

I wipe down the inside of the windshield with Coca-Cola. Works great !!
On the outside I use Rain-x

Reminds me of my racing days back in the early 80's. I got a bright idea similar to the bus only it was a two ton truck. An ex Sears truck no doubt (bad omen) I
worked my a** off converting it...
