Thanks for the TV schedule, Woody. :) Love ALMS.

Did a little quick rally research:

Grönholm drove at Portugal this year. Martin was Subaru test driver in '08 and now runs a trucking...

I used to go to Summers with those guys a few years back, before I had cable. Met them on the AtlasF1 bulletin board (now autosport.com). I got bored quickly with it. A couple of jaded...

Too bad Audi pulled out of ALMS. And Porsche. The P1 and P2 participation is pathetic. The factory Corvettes will be back for Long Beach but, unless Aston Martin shows up, there's not much...

Looks like your source is correct. I searched tonight on my Comcast schedule and found it listed: 12 noon EDT on April 15. Listing says World Challenge touring cars and GT at Sebring, or something...

Yep, thought about that later in the day - kinetic energy recovery. :rolleyes:

I just saw the race last night. Although things are obviously chaotic with the rule changes and technology updates, it was very fun not to see the usual procession of front runners dominating the...

I see that this race is no longer on today's schedule. I searched SPEED by category and also used the text search ("touring car", "scca", "SPEED") and found nothing.

So, I suppose we'll be...

DOH. Forgot about that. Gee, I'm sorry you had to see your old friend go down like that. :frown:

You are presuming that the owner is buying new strut housings? In an upgrade like this, I think you only need to change the springs and dampers. If so, you can't assemble the new struts until the...

PTG? You mean Rahal-Letterman?

Although Peugeot had a few wins in LMS last season, the Speed commentators mentioned that the team canned their manager in the off-season. I like to see Audi win...

Was someone else driving your car, Woody?

OK, for those of us that weren't there, the "play" is on the 31st.

I wonder why Speed waits so long. For crying out loud, they are the primary sponsor of the entire series. You'd think the...

Congratulations to Seth Thomas and Bimmerworld!

SpeedTV will be broadcasting the replay on March 31st at 1:00 PM.

I saw it a few months ago. It's good. Love endurance racing documentaries. :cool:

Edit: my bad; this isn't the show I was thinking of. It's excellent though!

I think you want the Deka ETX30L. It's the same battery at 1/3 the price.

These dry cell glass matt batteries are favored by the racing crowd, along with other brands like the Odyssey. Although...

Made my own! You can borrow it if you like.

I know it looks like a redneck piece of crap but it worked pretty good once I got it dialed in. :redface:

Just dropped off a new clutch and flywheel for balancing at Tyson's (referral from RRT). Simon has been in the business for many years and knows his stuff.

You've got to love a one-man shop with...

:icon_clap Good one Woody!

Oh! I just found another: "What gasoline octane rating should I run in my randomly modified engine?"

Never having done a club autocross, I can think of a few:


Can I bring a prepared race car that is not street legal?
Related to that: is there ample parking for trailers?
How many runs can I...

:rolleyes:

Top of the list of Controversial Threads With No Possible Resolution And Infinite I-Got-The-Last-Word Posts.


What's The Best Oil?
Which Cold Air Intake Should I Get?
Which...

Darn! I just had the pleasure of meeting Brian Downey at Auto Expectations last week. Great guy. Invited us to come to the shop when they record the show. I was going to listen for the first time...

Assuming it's a two year lease with a down payment, that's about $20,000 to the dealer for renting your dad a car. Assuming limited mileage, they'll get a pretty nice 2-year old M3 back at the end...

I don't mean to hijack the thread, so slap me if I am. But I think this question is related: what does it take to get a BMW CR license?

The Getting Started page at the CR site talks about racing...

Bad timing for Button. Although it's a surprise, Honda has been sucking wind ever since they bought BAR. The 2007 season was an...

:frown:

DTM was the only Euro series left last year. Now we just get highlights.

I wonder how Speed will fill all those early morning hours? FIA GT? WTCC? BTCC? LMS?

No. Wrecked. ...
