WHO IS WINNING THE NARRC IN ITB

[dazzlesa]

WHO IS RUNNING? WHO WILL RUN FOR THE NARRC? I WILL BRING OUT A CIVIC TO SEE WHAT IT CAN DO.

Rick - I thought I had front Header Panel Assembly in the parts attic for you Civic but I could not locate it. Good luck in the "B" car.

Thanks for looking

Carlson has only been beten by 3 people in races since the Jim McMahn days... I think he has lost maybe 3 or 5 races that he has entered in the last 5 years... I think he is still a strong contender, however we have both the Audi's running a bit faster than 2 years ago when we last ran the series. We also have the new tough guys like David Grand, and whats this Rick in a civic??? If it is being prepped by Anthony then I think that will be a tough one to beat. We also have Tim Mullen who keeps getting faster and some the benagh brothers who might have a few new tricks/ideas hiding in the closet. Alan I bet will have things worked out on his Audi, and I am thinking that Mr. Gleason and Reece always add a twist of suprises. How about Joel Hyde his son and his counterpart Dave Zaslow... Then if we ever get the Canadians to run the whole season that could be a tough battle, at the very least they always add a twist to things I would love to see the Bildon boys take a run at the challange. Nat Wentworth I think might come back this season stronger, as he always seems to be right on the edge of suprising everyone. Jeff Lawton... i was reading another post... are you out of B? You were also getting quick... I also herd that the BMW contenders might get an overhaul this season adding another challenging car...

I think with the Glenn on the list of events we will certainly see the best season yet. I know I am looking forward to it!!!

So, does this mean you guys are done with your road trips? Are you running a full NARRC schedule to make a run for the championship? Too bad I dislike NHIS so much.

I'm really looking forward to seeing what the upcoming year's full schedule will look like. Doing a couple NASA / Honda Challenge events could be interesting too. VIR might be a fun trip. And of course there is the annual trip to Summit Point. (You guys really should go to this one!)

my car is an ex EMRA car. it was built and raced 3 times before it was parked in 2000.it is clean and it seems that it was gone through to make a good car. it does not have the developmental effort that went into the integra. so will i suck? mabe. time will tell.Rich hunter told me that we might bring his civic out this year. from his past results he has been fast. the car is damn tiny so please dont cream me!

You'll love driving this car. Hunter used to put his Si on two wheels in the down hill at LRP. I had an '87 - won the ST-3 TT Championship with it my first year out (Holmes used to run a GEO Storm I think back then), moved over to ITA where it would hold it's own in the top 10 but could not handle the 2nd gen CRX's, Integras, and GTI's. Would like to have run it in "B".

Did this car come form a shop in Jersey?

Yup, you heard right!! Makes no sense since I should be getting a weight break in 06 or 07!! Still not sure I'm making the right decision Too good of a deal to pass up!!

My prediction: Carlson, Blethen, Blethen. HOWEVER, I think there will be a dog fight EVERY race in the top 8-10 positions. I'm a little bummed I'll be missing the fun!! And you guys WILL be having fun!!

You are all bringing back memories. My first race car was an '86 Civic Si... (Linda Lemelins old car around 1999ish). Amazing that she won the NARRC in that car and I placed 2nd in the NERRC in my first year with that car. A testimate to the phrase "nothing stands still".

The car was practically bullet proof, except for the Kaizer wheels I used. It was a great car to learn to drive with... few adjustments for me to screw up.

OK... now back to ITA reality.

Nope, it's *that* Saturn - as driven by Janmes Walker, an ex-Saturn engineer - that held the Glen record for a short while. That's the car we aquired...

Be afraid, be very afraid...

Is that Gary Lippert's old Saturn ? If so...it's a ROCKET.

[Greg Amy]

It's James Walker's old Saturn: http://www.teamscr.com

Walker is a Delphi (ex-Saturn) chassis engineer...this is one well-built car. - GA

[dazzlesa]

GARY'S CAR HAD THE RECORD FIRST, THEN THE 34 HAD IT.I THINK TOM BLANEY BATTLED WITH JAMES ONE WEEKEND A FEW YEARS BACKAT THE GLEN.

[JohnRW]

Gary works at the Delphi engineering/research/lab facility in the Finger Lakes, and is a hell of a driver. I remember standing at the old flag station on the inside of the entry to the Bus Stop at WGI, and watching him drill that Saturn thru there...hoe-lee-crap...didn't even look like he was lifting. Amazing.

Sounds like you have a sister car...or step-sister car.

[Greg Amy]

James Walker works at Delphi, too, so I'm sure there's a connection.

You sure it wasn't the red #34 you saw? Walker was telling me the same story, about banging through the bus stop almost without lifting... - GA
