Phil,
It was fun to get to challenge each other. The best part was that we both got our fastest laps at the end of the race.

Phil,
It was fun to get to challenge each other. The best part was that we both got our fastest laps at the end of the race.
I too had an up front seat. The red ITS Honda was coming inside (drivers left) of me out of Turn 2, so I pointed him left and gave him the line into Turn 3. I took the inside line. As we got to the...
The ProIT Race was a great way to shake the cobwebs off. With 2 twenty minute qualifying sessions and a 45 minute race, there was plenty of track time.
Thankfully I made it thru the spins...
Dave...
First - sorry to see that, especially during your first event.
Second - that can be fixed! A good body shop can pull that out and get the door to shut. Trust me... I know. DOH!
...
We've been bringing our daughter to the track since she was only a few months old. Cotton works ok with babies... ear plugs with older ones.
The other thing that works is to make friends with...
Dave,
I also run a CRX in the Northeast and have quite a few parts/spares for the CRX. Drop me a note if you need anything (ie, transmissions, doors, heads, suspension parts, OPM LSD, springs,...
I use a Racetech 4009WHR and love it! You'll need the W - wide version - if you have a waist over 34". The HR is head restraint. It is not much more than your budget and extremely comfortable. If...
Be sure to visit Jeremy's website. He has some great info to get started using the DL-1. I started using the DL-1 last year and enjoyed learning it. Then in the fall I went to the ARRC and got...
I agree with Greg. Sounds like the turn signal is shorting to the brake. I suspect it may be a build up of corrosion... because if it was a solid short, the brakes would probably lock up the...
Great looking RV. I know where to look if I need some corrugated aluminum for front air dams on a race weekend... :blink:
The ARRC was a fantastic weekend. I rented an ITB car from Kirk and enjoyed learning the track and the car. That "downhill" is wild at speed. The track does not appear until you are about 1/2 way...
Rob - come on back to ITA!! We can continue our battles and pick on the Acuras.
Try www.northeastracingphotos.com They were handing out business cards.

Great weekend at the #86 paddock. With a working transmission it was nice to be running again... especially on Saturday. But my rain tires are toast now! I spent the race convincing myself not to...
Thanks Greg... I have seem those discussions. They give me a headache. LOL
Thanks for the vote of confidence Jeff... looks like I could be guaranteed to bring home hardware. There are only 3 ITA pre-registered right now. :o
Where is everyone?
I have been curious about an RV for towing the race trailer (24' enclosed) and learned that states have restrictions on overall length. NH is murky... but Mass. and others are about 60'.
How do...
Dick - Thanks! See you there.
I am looking at the sign-up for the RAL regional and getting confused. The NESCCA site shows that the Sunday event is canceled. But the Supps show racing on Sunday morning.
Can anyone in the...
Hey Jeff... yes, I rented one of the Flatout cars a few years ago for a double. From a driver's perspective it is a blast to drive. Visibility took me a bit to get used to with the pillars, cage...
Congrats to the ITA racers (and IT7 - ITC) for podium finishes. I had visions of a great weekend, but a broken transmission put me out after 1.5 qualifying laps on Saturday. Pretty funny... I could...
Chimning in... time is the killer for maintaining a car, much less building one. Buying a car will get you on the track tomorrow... building will be next year.
Figure you can build a basic car for...
Great video Jeff. I was amazed you did not get hit on the start. I had noticed a puff of smoke from your front tires... then you just dropped off. You were quite patient coming thru as Victor and...
It was great to get back onto the track for 2009! But the driver was more rusty than the car. The rain race was about survival. I managed to hit #78 Miata (again... sorry!) square in the rear bumper...
It may be a stretch, but check your battery and distributor charge. The two times I had erratic power loss, each one was caused by low battery charge and low distributor charging (distributor wire...
