Anyone planning on going? I am going with my 8 running bone stock and my wife in her MS MX-5. info is here: www.sdr-scca.com This in in San Diego, CA incase anyones confused.

Kyle

 

I will be there.

 

I would love to go... but what do i need? my 8 is stock too.. do i need to register?? I have never been to one of these.. how much is it? i dident find what i needed on that web site

 

Nice to meet those who came out. Saw atleast 5 RX-8's, few 7's and a buttload of mx-5's. I had fun. Bone stock, stock tires and all I managed a 74.844 which wasnt too far off pace in B stock. Chilli wasnt too bad either!

Kyle

 

I had fun too, but did not have one clean timed run That friggin lane change thing at the top of the course was killing me. Saw a couple titaniums running BS, which number where you? I was 808, I may have met you before a while back.

 

Sorry guys, I was in the other lot turning some perfectly good bridgestones into smoke!!

 

LOL awsome yea I was the other Titanium Grey # 469. I finally ran a half decent time in the fun fun i had a 75.080 LOL much better then what i was getting.. looking @ my tires today.. I think ill get some diferent rims and tires just for this I had a blast tho. This was my first time doing anything like that and I loved it.. Any word on stuff in LA??

PS.. im under the impression that it was a clean run.

 

I went over there 3 times to watch but I could find better ways to spend $125! I need to set up a drift event in santee around the industrial parks. Looked like fun though. Wish I would've seen ya running.

Kyle

 

yea 125 plus 2 tires... LOL then cleaning all the tar/rubber on your rear bumper... Any one going to the redline event @ willow springs?? I think ill go.

 

That's what an old beater car is for! Anyways they were just used 14 inchers..$10 a pop. No way am I going to burn up my BFG's!

Crap, they counted my rerun as my K run. 71.607 clean on the rerun, still a second off of the Bimmer. I even went to T&S to make sure they were aware of the situation, evidently not- Oh well huh-


Chops (elliot)

 

I'll have the SCNAX guys look into it. The penalties/re-runs/etc are recorded in 3 different places so if someone noted your re-run they'll be able to fix it. Note that these aren't actually official results yet

Nice runs by the way. I managed a 70.xxx in fun runs, but I'm sure there were cones on that one too...

 

I had to bail but I wish I could've stayed for some more fun runs. I was just getting a handle on eyeing the cones. At first it was kind of a blur, hence my first run DNF. Thanks Chops for the info on tires as well. Look foward to being a little more competitive.

Kyle

 

Yea it was awsome.. I hade someone drive my car in fun run to show me how to do it... and in fun run i got my 75.080 too bad i dident put the smack down in when it counted.. I had a blast tho.. the instructor that ran my car ran an 71.xxx +2 i think @ the very end took out the finish cones i think it was.. LOL any who im going to the willow spring redline event.. I hope i have the comp-R tires by then... any suggestions on tire choice.. Im buying another set of stock rims and am on a budget.. oh just got a canzoomer too.. does that mean i cannot run b-stock any more?

Russell

 

I also asked the same thing. Chops (the guy in the yellow 8) had some good info to give here:

https://www.rx8club.com/showthread.php?t=71698\

I believe the CZ will take you out of b stock. I will likely save up for JIC coilovers/RP supercat/intake and jump up in class all @ once and race b stock a while.
Good luck @ the redline event. I need to save for those rims/tires first and foremost.

Kyle

 

Wouldn't a CZ only take you out of B Stock if they open up your ecu and see it??

 

Yes, but that would suck.

 

Yeah, that and the fact that all of the 8's that ran this last weekend either post or lurk heavily on the forum. Wouldn't be a secret for long.... Then theres always that sportsmanship thing.......




Chops

 

thats kewl... well im just out to have a good time...

 

Chops, got your last run fixed. Now you can officially say your are faster than me :p

Hey, Russel... I just signed up for the redline event on the 23rd and don't see you on the list yet. It's almost full so you should sign up soon if you plan on going. I'm pretty sure it will be the end of my half-used Kuhmos, but at least it will give me an excuse to upgrade to the V710s.

 

heh.
