Re: Adios

Thanks, guys.... :) Actually, Peru is around 1:30 hours from me. The new Cinci site is around 2 hours and the Luisville site is around an hour away. So, a number of autox options up here. In addition to doing most of the Peru events, I will also try the Cinci site (it looks decent from a couple of v...

Adios

Friends, I have moved to Indiana for a new job. I was wanting to attend the June 26th Bristol event, but had to move to the new job on a very short notice. I just wanted to thank everyone in ETR for their friendship and guidance. Three years ago, I did my first ever autox event, and since then, I ha...

Re: Event 1 2017

Really liked this track as I hit limiter only once. This event was also the closest I have been to the leaders in STM as I was within 0.5 seconds of 1st place as opposed to consistently being 1-1.5 seconds off last season. This (run3) was my fastest at 41.665 seconds. Mounted the camera on my helmet...

Re: My Amod is going away

Fastest 200tw 15" tire is going to be the 225 Rival S followed by the 225 Kumho and both will need 15x9 rims. The only 200tw 245 is the Maxis VR1 tire, but it is not that fast. On the upside, 15x9 rims are cheap (Advanti S1 or the Konigs from goodwin) and so are the tires (at least the kumhos).

Re: Regional #12 post-event

This was my fastest run (60.2s) yesterday. I kept making mistakes in my last three laps and got stuck in the 60.2s for all three. Basically butchered the lower section on this run. I also really need to resist the urge to shift into third. That missed shift at the end was cheap time to give away :oo...

Re: Regional #12 post-event

Something was up with a lot of the times. I remember your car. Both myself and the auditor never saw a 1 in front of your codriver or, you all never put it. By the time you let us know and fixed the issue you were already 6 runs in (3rd runs for 2 driver cars). I tried to fix what I could but too m...

Re: NCM Oct. 15-16

This was my fastest run (50.369 sec) (Sunday only)

I think I could have gotten under 50 if I was a little more aggressive while exiting the chicago boxes as well as the v-slalom.

Re: Regional #10 Smokies Stuff

Had so much fun. Though I was still around a second slower than the usual leaders in STM, this was the closest I have been to them all year. I think I am too conservative on my first runs and it takes me 5 or 6 runs to get up to speed. Will try to work on that at Adesa. This turned out to be my fast...

This was my fastest lap there:

The car is definitely a lot faster than this. Looking forward to the novice school (last year i picked up 1 - 1.5 seconds after the school).

Re: ONE DAY BMS events

1 day Bristol events would be a lot more attractive. Also, +1 for TnT opportunities.

Re: ETR Event #8

Ya, I'm running -3 front and -2 rear. Perhaps, I should reduce the camber to run reasonable pressures.

Re: ETR Event #8

My MSM weighed in at 2500 pounds with a hardtop and without me in it....

Also, I have to run around 21 psi with my v720's (225 on 15x9) and still the wear mark is above the triangle indicators!

Actually, the exhaust broke on that miata before the last run.
