We'll see :rolleyes:
Yergler has been really, really fast at MAM. If he's there it will definitely test you and your new car's ability.
We finally get to see the car?!?!?! From the little Jim L has told me, I expect great things.
I'll be there. This is always a great event - come on people, sign up!!!
Thanks to MVRG/KVRG/AVRG for a great weekend at MAM...especially to the workers that had to deal with a rainy Saturday and a very windy Sunday.
Despite the conditions on Saturday, I think...
Head is supposed to be back from the machine shop Weds/Thurs, head assembled by Friday, block back from bore on Friday, pistons in Monday, and everything assembled/installed by Tues/Wed of next week....
That's weird about Robert.
I didn't realize the 924/944s were signed up in the drivers school.
Hope to see you there!
I was one of the entries for this Hallett race - unfortunately pistons didn't make it in time so I had to cancel. I'm planning on MAM, but I'm not positive at this point if it will happen.
If you...
Kelley,
I just had my engine rebuilt and need to break-in before this race. Will there be any "test" sessions available on Friday? Let me know.
Thanks,
Ryan Staub
100% agree with Travis. The Midiv as a whole needs to:
- decide how many races/types there will be in 09
- take a look at the number and success of races in each region over the past couple years...
Very interested as well - subscribed.
Let's shoot for Tues-Wednesday next week. E-mail me next week to let me know which day would work best for you - e-mail is [email protected] .
Thanks for the videos guys.
Travis - I can take the fender if you'd like. We'll just need to find a time to meet up - I work at College and Metcalf in OP.
I just signed up and this will be my first time at GIR. Although I won't be able to make it until the afternoon, I am planning to do the test day on Friday.
Does anyone have in-car video (DE or...
The exhaust and engine definitely need some attention.
Mark - I was hoping that you'd say this is the best your engine has ever run. If you're down 20 hp then it looks like I have a long way to go to hang with you when your car is running properly.
I must not have been clear, but in no way am I trying to say that the rules are unfair for the E30. The questions I'm asking are out of curiousity rather than questioning the system (SCCA).
To...
I definitely agree.
I'm hoping an E30 racer will post some video showing how their legal engine can keep up with E36s and RX7s on the straights. I do believe the E30 can keep up with these cars...
The "rumor" I heard was on another forum and directed me to this forum to find more information. After picking through many sections on this forum, I haven't found anything.
My "old" engine has...
I heard some rumors that the E30 was going to get some help, but I didn't hear of any specifics.
Do you guys know anything? Are they considering dropping weight at all? It's been a while, but...
I really appreciate the input. The only reason I'd really consider Production is to race a national class. Although I have moments where I consider going to something like Production, I do think...
Great video...that was quite a battle. Here's a 2nd place finish for me where I just couldn't quite close the deal: http://www.fototime.com/3E3486DC440E925/conv.wmv (the battle really starts around...
Thanks for the input Marshall. Now that the car is developed (except the engine), I have no doubt that it can be competitive in braking/handling. The one area of question for me is straight-line...
For a while I was stuck to BMWs, but I've considered many times recently moving to Mazda...it's tough to beat the support they provide. In the classifieds I saw an EP RX7 that sounds appealing.
Thanks for the welcome. Going into this hobby, I had a lot of people tell me that buying a used racecar is the way to go...benefit from the thousands of dollars someone else will lose.
After...
