SCCA AUTOX 10/7

[1.8turbin75]

:goodjob: Whats up? I was wondering if anyone was going to Turner field on 10/07.

[Elbow]

I am entered, #7 D-Prepared Miata

[Roadster]

I'm in as well. Novice though, first time out.

[ARFNSX]

How much is it to enter?

[The Yousef]

How much is it to enter?

u can't drive. :no:

[Roadster]

$40 for non-SCCA members. $30 if you're a member I believe.

[1.8turbin75]

ya 40 for non member. well straight i am a novice also first race.

[sleepys4]

What do you have to have? (as far as safety equipment and car is concerned)

[1.8turbin75]

Just a safe for the road car. IE good tires, no leaks, and everything removed from the inside of your car.

[THX712517]

I'll be there, car number 21 in C-Stock. My run group is in the afternoon. If anyone's got questions, go to www.soloatlanta.com. There are plenty of FAQs and a forum you can search for answers. It's going to be a blast. I got my new Bridgestone Potenza RE-01Rs installed this week, so I'm gonna be aggressive.

[SampaGuy]

If nothing comes up, I'll be there. This time I'm bringing my pressure gauge and my tires won't be inflated to 60psi like at points #8 event (do NOT trust the gauge on the air compressor that they have there lol). Im in c-stock too but im still running ****ty street tires :(

[1439/2000]

Damn I want to go. We'll see how it works out.

[Elbow]

Yeah racing on low tire pressure FTL thanks I was forgetting something!

[fawk_you]

Me too, D-prepared :( will be on crappy street tires and HOOOORRRIBBLLLEEEE alignment...but with a smile on my face lol :goodjob:

Hopefully by next season the car will have some wider wheels, better tires, and a good alignment.

[1.8turbin75]

[Elbow]

are your rims stock?

Yeah :( lolol, sucks, I had some Falken Azenis and still have them, but they are not mounted I got Toyos put on for daily driving, I would swap the Falkens but I am leaving for Petit tom. morning and wont be home till Sat night and then wake up and go to the autocross.

BIG difference with good tires. I am wanting some much wider wheels and new tires for next year.

[fawk_you]

LA you gonna ride with me and tell me WTF to do?
Yes mam'! I can if you would like me to! :goodjob: No problem at all.

Sweet! Its always nice to watch someone I know... I hate my friend Kevin wont be there... he's an amazing driver, first in CSP. He's going to the nationals or something of that nature down in FL. I understand the alignment dealio though, been MONTHS since ive gotton everything straightened out and such. I know after this race though ill be getting new specs on the alignment and road force measurement on the balancing... BAH.

[Elbow]

My alignment is so bad you can tell by looking at it, I have - camber on the back wheels and the front it's almost +. Toe is not that bad. Camber is the main issue lol.

[fawk_you]

Good luck with that.

[Elbow]

Had fun at the last event, wasnt the slowest, so its all good.

[SixSquared]

Simon run your car by Porterfield off of Mitchell Bridge.. Look for a blonde guy behind the counter, named Bill Rickie... tell him Emily Covi sent you and ask about getting that alignment done.. he should do it for the low low.

LOL....I know Bill Rickie! I always get my stuff there from him, my dad and him are friends, I am getting an alignment after this event before an event at Road Atlanta and the next Solo 2. I just am leaving for Petit Le Mans in the morning and have no time.

Porterfield FTW

[SixSquared]

Yeah Bill Rickie's known me since I was like 5... he was engaged to my old babysitter.

Too bad she turned out to be a lying whore.... a hot lying whore, but a lying whore nontheless lol

[StraightSix]

I'll be at this event. It's been awhile since I autocrossed, though.

[Sport1.3]

lol Guess it wouldnt Hurt to bring out the new DD aka "1.3 liters of DEATH!!" :lmfao: plus its been about a year since ive been out, ive been needing to get back into this

[Sport1.3]

Sweet! Its always nice to watch someone I know... I hate my friend Kevin wont be there... he's an amazing driver, first in CSP. He's going to the nationals or something of that nature down in FL.

Nationals is in Heartland Park in Topeka KS. The event Kevin is going to is the GRM $2007 challenge in Gainsville FL. In which his Other SM miata is F U C K I N sick!! he placed 6th last year out of 70+ . Expect to see a top 5 performance....i know you knew that....i'm just so proud of him :D lolol

[Sport1.3]

I did, just forgot. lol.

Yeah i figured....i was like, she probably talks to him more then i do :thinking: lol....he never comes around anymore. He's always busy with his GRM build both the Miata and the Tempo. I hope he wins this year for real

[fawk_you]

I just have a sh1t ton going on, ya know? I always talk to him about my miata stuff, he's always the one to go to with any technical or racing stuff. I hope he wins as well. That would be SO bad ass.

[MikeyPrzy]

Since when did the prices go up from $35? I've autocrossed in my automatic 2000 civic, my corvette and I want to buy some race tires from my friend and take my EF out, but I don't have the money or time this weekend :/ otherwise I would LOVE to go. Everybody should go out and just watch and ask someone to take a ride, everybody is super nice there. Really awesome experience.

[1.8turbin75]

I had a great time here is a video of my four runs.

[TS240]

Nice dude :goodjob: Sorry I couldn't make it, but I'll be at the next one for sure.:D

[Elbow]

Was fun, next event I am throwing my Azenis back on and getting the car aligned.

[THX712517]

That should help your times a good bit. I was surprised that I was faster than you. You looked like you were having fun.

[fawk_you]

Sleep depervation OWNS ME! :( And my times this event. :2up:

[SixSquared]

Sorry I wasn't there! My car > me

[fawk_you]

:(

[SixSquared]

:( :( I know.. I really wanted to go... started working on the car at like 8am intending to stop at noon and head out... checked the clock and it was almost 3. :( We will get those shots, though, girlie!

[Elbow]

What do you drive? Do I know you? :thinking:

[THX712517]

I drove the white '01 Miata in CS. I don't know you either, but I saw your post here and kept an eye out for your car number. I've been noticing people from IA posting on the SoloAtlanta board so I thought I'd take an interest.

[Elbow]

Ohhh ok cool. Well next time come say hi!

[SampaGuy]

I had a lot of fun. I had to be somewhere in the afternoon so I ran in TO in the morning instead of CS

[Nuk3m]

I'm in as well. Novice though, first time out.
I got some pics of some Miatas in the morning heat. Theirs 1 of the 15 and a couple of 82 TO. They're uploading right now.

THANK YOU



I registered late so they did not have me in the system yet. I asked the guy that signed me in at the trailer if I could be #28 TO and he said sure. Then later I found out that there was somebody else running with that same number so I had to switch it to #82 TO.

[THX712517]

You wouldn't happen to have a picture of 21CS, white Miata in the afternoon run, would you?

Sorry, I lefted after the first couple of cars in the afternoon heat.

I going to try to make it to the next one on the 28th and stay all day.

[Elbow]

Anyone know what the Champions of Champions is?

[Nuk3m]

Awesome shots!!! Thanks for pointing me to them. Reps. :D




I just found this one that didn't make it up on my site. It's not striaght but it's better focused. To bad I forgot my monopod.

[Roadster]

Wow, that one's sharp. Thanks again! :goodjob:

[grey_eg]

Anyone know what the Champions of Champions is?

It's the event where all of the people who took 1st place in their class compete to see who the overall winner for the season is. But don't worry they also do a "best of the rest" class where everyone else can compete. Basically, it's just another event. In my opinion its one of the more fun events because everyone is more laid back, and people tend to drive different cars on each run! :)

[Elbow]

^Ok cool.
