SASCA AutoX #5 @ AT&T

[Gawaine79]

Yep, back in town.  Just got in town on Thursday night (well, Friday morning, if you want to get technical about it).  Shouldn't be traveling for a while at this point.  I could have let you drive my Miata this next weekend, but I don't own it any more.

As a side note, for everybody that will be getting on-site early in the morning to set up, please look over the map below carefully so that you don't pit in the area where the course runoff is.  We are moving the pit/paddock area to the southeast corner of the parking lot....

Thanks!

Ricky

So I see you're going to be driving an S2k at the divisional is that what you're going to drive this weekend?
If so I will need ride alongs!!

[Ricky Crow]

lol...  There is a slight chance I will have said S2k out at the event this weekend.  I am 3/4 of the way done with replacing the entire suspension on it (all new upper and lower arms, balljoints, new Moton shocks, Gendron 1 3/8" hollow front sway bar, replaced the brakes all around, etc, etc..)  I just got my set of Hoosier A6s in last night and are ready to go onto the Forged BBS lightweight wheels tomorrow morning.  Saturday I am planning to trailer the car up to Austin to get the front upper A-arm mounts welded up per the Honda TSB, then get the car aligned.  With any luck, I will have it out there on Sunday.  Otherwise, I will be driving Jay's Z06 that he has graciously offered to let me co-drive.

Hey Ricky.
I think the "final" results page is missing the D2 run times.
The total looks correct, but no D2 times.

how did the car run by the way....one of my spies told me you were running 305's is that so??

[RavynX]

I got there around the afternoon to watch.  I'm definitely going to have to find a hat or something to cover my neck for whenever I'm out on cone-duty next time; hot hot hot!

You should get Blizzaks.  Yeah that will work.

[Shane]

Hell yeah! I was just going to say Blizzaks!!  
Awesome tire!  Especially in the heat. 

Hey Oscar... my fastest morning run, was #4.  That was a run where my charge-pipe popped of early.  So I was running most of the track like I used to always run it... boost-less!!

its weird how that was ur fastest one.... I think it was because i was in the car with you.... i balanced your car... the more weight the better!! i'll get some people in the back seat next time

i think the second course was alot more fun than the first one.   lol the first one would have been fun if my carb didnt keep flooding out on the turns...

305s!!  Holy cow, no way...  I am running 245s all around in a non-staggered tire setup.  Wheels are still stock size (diameter, width, and offset), but are lighter than the stock wheels.

The car ran awesome, despite the messed up/unknown alignment I managed to get 3rd place in PAX.
