No Summit love this year? BOOOOO!!!!! (I live 20 minutes from there, so I am partial. I can drive in the AM and still get the grass mowed in the afternoon without angering my wife too badly.)

Is there a full 2011 Auto-X schedule anywhere on here. I swear I clicked all around the site, btu I am still coming up empty.

Sorry if I am missing it...

I may be late with the reply, but that made me laugh!

I got some motocross gloves from a motorcycle shop for my track day last year, and it was great for that, but I don't wear them for autoX. As has been said above, I saw no benefit (for me), but...

Went off course on my first run. Fourth run (bottom) was clean, and was good enough for 6th of...

Mostly-stock 2008 non-turbo 2.5i, manual transmission. Only mods are a short shifter, Legacy GT front Struts with Tein H-Tech front springs and a Legacy GT (stock) RSB.

Tires are BFG G-Forct T/As...

Finally registered for PM. I hope I can get the E30 up and running by then...

Well, after all of my whining and complaining about classing my E30, I STILL don't have it on the road...I REALLY hope to have it up and running in time for this event, but my fingers are crossed.
...

My bet is that he (she?) hopes that is snows. :biggrin:

Fail on my part, at least for the E30. No way she will be ready by then. Maybe the Legacy will get a few more runs.

If the group voted that way, I certainly respect that. From a pure participation perspective, my chances of placing are actually better in M4 than T3.

Looks pretty good. Main differences between Tuner and Modified appear to be aftermarket forced induction and/or internal engine mods.

I still say a cam swap could be a tuner mod, but the new...

Have the new rules been posted?

Looking forward to the list.

Thanks. I updated my post above to be more accurate.

Okay, you guys have me convinced. After talking to Mike and Woody, the eta car is not at the disadvantage in Group 3 that I had initially perceived.

I withdraw my objection to moving eta cars to...

That link seems to have become evil.

I am also confused with this...and again, it may be because of the discussions about my top-end swap recommendation. At any rate, you just co-classed an E30 M3 (192 HP) in with an eta (127 HP)...

The system in the NY chapter seems pretty easy. The Swap penalty (15 points) is pretty significant, but it makes sense. Well,...

Okay, I now have a greater perspective of how much of a PITA it CAN be to class. I never thought it was easy, but I'd rather see our organizers involved in activities rather than doing long division...

I'd like to still stand by my written comments and recommendations. I'd love to attend, but family obligations are a step above recreation right now. No offense intended.

I know that my one...

Any idea on cost?

Following this logic is a definate for experienced guys who know that they will benefit from the additional expenditure associated with buying an SA helmet.

N00bies (on the other hand) may...

One HUGE recommendation here, speaking from experience: Try before you buy.

I bought a CL-5 a few months ago (same M2005 rating) for $55 at my local shop, and while the measurements said I...

Good to know. My wife is due to deliver any day now, and it is about a 2 hour trip (each way) to make the meeting, so I (most likely) won't make it even after the reschedule.

At any rate, I...
