Looks like the I'm out for the weekend. Car isnt ready...............

Does anyone have room on their crew list? Dont mind spending the $10 entry fee but need to get my truck full of wheels down to Smarty and dont want to carry them from the in-field!!

I'm also withdrawn. My group is now 100% Miatas.

If you can't get on a crew list, I can toss you on the guest list.

Considering going back to ITS or ITR? I have to imagine that's going to be the norm at least for a while.

Considering going back to ITS or ITR?

Yes, considering changing to ITR-spec, and then running STL in the Majors. But there's several useful, desirous, yet IT-non-compliant changes* on the STL car that I'd really like to keep...so it's not likely to happen. - GA

* e.g.,
- Power steering removed, less s**t to deal with
- Coil on Plug (uses the stock distributor but does not "distribute" the spark in the stock manner). Coils and ignitor are inside disty and overheat and crap out. Shitty design.
- 4-bolt wheels; ITR only came with 5-bolt, no desire to buy all-new everything (I run 4-bolt Volk TE-37s)
- Brakes, would have to source ITR stock brakes
- Aluminum flywheel - don't really care about this too much, I can R&R it in four hours; "zero" while I'm replacing the engine with the ITR version
- Splitter, cannot run an effective splitter in IT because the Integra has no underhang below the vertical body outline
- Battery relocation - not that big of a deal
- Fender intake - 30 seconds to remove a tube
- Cage and safety equipment is still compliant, hood and hatch are easy to replace, easy to re-install headlights and move ballast.

Hey, at least I don't have to reinstall a washer bottle...!
