....~4.5" wider than the old set-up in total. Just have to make them fit in the next two days.

You better have FTD with that stack of $$$ you have there.

[Biggins]

I just hope we have an event where R's can actually be used...

[irish44j]

looking at the signup, looks like there must be conflicting places on the NCC site with the "old" classing (X4 being the "fastest") and the current classing (X1 being the "fastest"). I'm seeing Miatas and Civics signed up in X1 and a Porsche 911 Turbo in X4. Thinkin those *might* not be right, lol.

Anyhow, someone may want to look at the places where the classing for non-BMW is posted to see if they are not the same everyplace.

Bad news for the X2 folks....word on the street is a certain big block civic will be running. It appears it will have a co-driver as well (not me!). Looking forward to running to the event. I think it is my first with NCC (other than instructing at the school).

I'm doing my rain dance fast and furiously now!

Karwan will have me covered, if he comes. I'm still on super soft suspension until next weekend as well. There is 1 or 2 bucks involved in two sets of RPF1's and A6's though....I won't deny that.

This is the official list, and hasn't changed for three years now:

Unless there is a hidden site that gives the wrong info, me thinks those Civics, Miatas and the 911 should be prevented from running for lack of . . . .well, something.

I heard Brian was co-driving Anthony's S2000 I guess since Anthony co-drove Brians car in Toledo. Don't know if they'll be on r-comps.

[03threefiftyz]

That could be. I know Noel just took off Anthony's sway bar he had borrowed for Toledo. I don't think Anthony has Hoosiers. Not sure on that, though. They can use my scrubs, but the offset is probably too aggressive for an S2k (+35ish).

[Walka]

what? you've never offered me your scrubs!


Jk :-p

What is the big block civic you are talking about in x2?

Yeah Noel is the one who told me they were both running Anthony's S2K. I'm pretty sure I've seen him run on r-comps but IIRC he didn't like them.

Brian's monster SMF Civic. But he might not be bringing it out..


Looks like I might be driving Danny's Civic in X4 in the morning. Assuming he can get the suspension all sorted out in time for me to pick it up. I'd definitely like to see how this car would do against others at the Waldorf lot.

http://forum.nccbmwcca.org/content.php?138-Classes

yeah I know, but I recall that 2 seasons ago the classing list had all the classes reversed and was posted up someplace else. So didn't know if that old list was maybe still floating around someplace.

Either that, or some people simply don't know that their engine displacement and/or the presence of a turbo on their car

[Claff]

First event of the year for me, posting to remind the Powers That Be to put my trophy from last year in the trailer so I can pick it up.

This'll be the first time I've run a car that didn't belong to me. Could be interesting.

[mcoupemindy]

Anyone have a seat for a co-driver? Looking for a ride in a 2, 3, or 4 group car. Prep level doesn't matter to me.

TIA -Jonathan

Talked to Brian and he said him and Anthony are running with CDC. No monster Civic at this one... except for the Moogen I'm driving
