Nice.  About 12hrs from us, and certainly a smooth easy drive.

OK.  Fixed.  Seems like club leadership member group and the moderator group got blocked out from seeing the tinyportal page when I installed it after the member groups had already been created.

For now, those member groups are deleted.  I'll recreate them or something similar in the future.

Thanks for finding this Ryan.

Odd.  Anyone else experience the same thing?  I do not.

Yes.  They decided not to go.  I do believe they are running this weekend though.

Technical Talk / Re: Tire pressures ... very good article by Neal Tovsen

« on: April 10, 2015, 07:57:22 AM »

I think it's helpful to start some thinking... but is there is a problem?

What if my car is stuck with zero camber and a terrible camber curve because it's an old car with a mac strut.  Is 55psi really the answer?  Doesn't that pretty much guarantee I don't ever get to use the full potential of the tire (not in acceleration, not in braking, not in cornering). 

Also, if I happen to be one of those angry drivers who just keeps turning the wheel when the car doesn't do what I want, I might be wearing the names off my sidewall no matter what.

I hear ya about the money.  Car in getting new rotors, brakes and replacement of all fluids.  And have you seen the price of tires this year?  Yikes!  Even worse, ZII Star Specs are out of stock until mid-June

USD is painful indeed.  But shouldn't you be buying Bridgestones now?  I was impatient and bought ZIISS before the new tires were available.  Find some 17's and I'll sell you mine.

I think you are in a slick class regardless, G-prepared or Dmod I believe.

I don't know much about Mini's, but I think there is a good chance your engine is not GP legal.  I also think the car is likely too light for Emod, unless you are a very large man...

Is this a car you are planning on running or selling?  Looks fast and fun.

I'm not available that weekend, but am curious about the venue.

Sounds like it's a parking lot?  I've heard of some higher speed solo2's in Montana, but I'm guessing this is not the place.

Shame about the car.

On the video feed, I noticed David lined about against the McKee RX7 at one point, and wondered if I was watching Formula D.

Really liked your i-mark! Somewhat sad that it's gone... but those Fiesta's are great.
