Re: MAP Proving Grounds 2013 Part1 ROAD COURSE TALK
Looks like my car is stuck in unlimited class because no heater, I might as well bring the A048's.
Edit: I will talk to Andy, maybe I can still get into street class, it looks like there were no real participants in unlimited last year.

Re: MAP Proving Grounds 2013 Part1 ROAD COURSE TALK
We just don't want to see a full out race car try to compete in the "Street" class.
We need to full up this event! Sign up and your wildest dreams may come true....

Re: MAP Proving Grounds 2013 Part1 ROAD COURSE TALK
Just ordered my new rims and tires today, I'll have to look at what events to sign up for when I get back. Probably road course both days. I gotta try and remember how to turn the steering wheel, it's been a long time.

BMW? Ha, you'll definitely be behind me, far enough back where you won't get anything on your car. Just keep to left as I pass you over and over.

There are turns on this road, it won't be that easy.

Re: MAP Proving Grounds 2013 Part1 ROAD COURSE TALK
I was thinking about signing up for the TTS. This would be my first year in my first dsm. I just got it running for the first time, so I have a total of 10 miles 1g dsm driving experience.
The trans need new synchro rings, and I was thinking about welding the center diff while I was in there. But, I imagine it would make for shitty driving on the road course and autox on the tight turns. Anyone have experience with this?

Registered for TTS and a 2 session HPDE on Saturday! Price goes up this Saturday for anyone who hasn't registered yet.
Plan is to do drag racing early Saturday, then early afternoon do my two 20 minute sessions of HPDE, then 4pm is autox. Then Sunday one HPDE session and timed laps. Should be an awesome weekend.
