Default May 7th autocross SCCA

Yeah, I know most of you guys hate SCCA. I do too, but they only run on Sunday's and it's the only time I'm free.

It'll be at TMS Bust Lot -- should be a good sized crowd. A lot of local hotshoes run w/ SCCA only, so you'll see some good drives.

It'd be nice to see some S2kers out there -- but if not, I'll do my best to represent!

SCCA has improved a good bit over the past 2 years. Last event I I was at we all got 5 runs.

I plan on being there. And I agree, it'd be great to see some more S2000's out. There's also a novice class for anyone who cares less about competition and more about learning.

But it's still SCCA.

When's the next Porsche club event?

Clovis -- Wait...you got...FIVE runs?! Lies! Last time I went to SCCA (Nov, 05) we got 3 runs Well, I hope it's true. Bus lot in this warm weather, should be a lot more fun. Hopefully I can warm up the MXs enough for some decent runs.

Wildncrazy -- Next PCA event is June 11th, Pennington Field.

I will be there, If I don't forget about it before Sunday I guess I will go ahead and run the RA1s, with the wheels they are on that will put me in asp against a new Z06 . I can bring an easy up canopy for shade if anyone has some wheels/jack or something else heavy that we can bungy the canopy to if it gets windy? If not I will probably leave it at home. I would rather not have to worry about it taking flight.

SCCA is running a club race at TMS this weekend as well.
http://www.sunburngrandprix.com/
$10 ticket to watch. (Good for all three days.)
20 lap sprint races are just after lunch, Saturday and Sunday.

A guy I know is running an Audi A3 in the new T3 group. EgoThreat and I are thinking about stopping by.

They also have a PAX indexed street tire class

Does that mean I can run in SS with my street tires and still be competitive?

More like, you'd be in a single class with a lot of other street-tired cars, and each one's time will be indexed by the PAX rating of their respective stock class to determine the final standings.

Gregg, he has a C6 Corvette however. I'm not sure that they're allowed in any of the ST__ classes?
