We'll see if I can still barrow them for sunday BSCC. I managed to puzzle piece all 4 wheels into my car. Getting them all out is going to be the hard part. Sweet more autox guys Just as long as Eric doesnt show up in the GTR. Shatter my dreams of being fastest overall.

I really need to start fabricating a lilttle trailer to carry all my stuff around.

Today was lots of fun. Lots of BSCC autocrossers out there. Didnt quite know the limits of the rcomps for the good part of the day. Once again just like I always do, learn something new at the very end on the last lap that could have made myself 1-2 seconds faster.

The competition was only divided into FWD, RWD, and AWD. There was an SCCA National Champ driver who was on the podium 1st in RWD and AWD and 2nd in FWD. Damn good driver. Lots of inexperienced drivers and slow cars. But definitely a fun competition to watch. The cars on the podium had good drivers and were very quick.

There were several cars on slicks. RWD podium full slicks for the 1st place C5 Z06, rear slicks for Vortec Supercharged S2000, full slicks for 3rd place Supercharged Ariel Atom. AWD No slicks 1st place STi, No slicks 2nd place Evo, and no slicks 3rd place STi, FWD 1st place Civic EG Hatch had slicks, 2nd place EF hatch was a track car, 3rd place car I don't even know what it was.

Overall there were some sweet cars. Several S2k's, STi's, Evo's, Civic hatches (one true Civic Type R ek Hatch), 3 Miatas, 2 RX8s, MX6, C5 Z06 Vette, e36 M3 Race car, Ariel Atom, Exige, Elise, 200sx, Supercharged Focus race car, and I know there were more, but they escape me at the moment.

All the results for everyone are being posted online, but I don't recall the web address.

The event will be a monthly staple, next one is July 16th

Heres one picture from a local RX8 friend who was there taking pictures.



I didnt make it out to BSCC today because I had way to much to do around the house. Always will be another event so no big.

Wow. Seems like you are required slicks to podium huh? I guess my little re01r won't do too much damage against those guys but next time I'll preregis way ahead to make sure I don't miss it again.

Rawrx8. How did you like the 275? What are they?

I run 275 Dunlop Starspec as my daily setup. But those were Toyo RA1. Fine, they only heated up till the very end.

First run gives them a gauge of your car and driver performance level. Then they divide the cars into groups A-G (5-6 cars in each group) and run them in alphabetical order. What you see there is the schedule for the entire night in a 24hr calendar time. They competed on 3 different configurations of the track. All of the results should be on My Laps if you follow the link below the race schedule
