it was my understanding that the A Mod PAX for STM was so that there would be zero whining about how they couldn't win ... if they come onboard knowing that their PAX is 1.0, then the participants in the class would know exactly where they stood before any runs were taken ... after all it's a "...

Not trying to stir the pot, but what happens if an STM car wins the match tour? Won't that piss off some people that have done a lot of work to stay within the guidelines of a nationally recognized class? Especially if they are on 140 treadwear. Not trying to cause trouble, just trying avoid it in ...

See also: The impact area of this rule lies uncomfortably close to some of my oxen. And I seem to be the only one near the impact area who has enough knowledge of the rulebook to issue some pushback (although thankfully, I've had considerable help from those outside the impact area). And since I vo...

why not just return to whatever rule set we used for STM the last couple of seasons ? we in tech didn't seem to have any problems with cars that we deemed to be unsafe

GRM has been up and down for 2 days ...they're up right now, though they've only come back on line in the last hr of so ...

the last time I visited Atlanta Region forum, they were up ... that was mid-afternoon

and it's hit or miss ... in the middle of posting this, our site locked up again ...

yeah. I'll echo Chad, thanks Dave ... lots of under appreciated work you do ... wish there was an easy way to slow these jacka$$es down

really ... thanks for all the work

hoping for a SAFE and happy new year for everyone ....

PLEASE if you're out tonight make sure you have a driver ... it's amateur night out there ... this from a former bartender/drunk

don't let yourself get into a situation that bad things can happen


HAPPY NEW YEAR

it's happened a couple of times there ... in zero case was anything hit, nor was the car being way overdriven

if you want a listing of all your championships, you'd have to get whatever jacket you like the most and get to JB and have this yrs info added to it ... of course you wouldn't have this yrs style jacket

Off-topic, but a pet peeve: Solo II died about 10 years ago. It's only Solo. There is no Solo I and hasn't been for 10+ years. Old habits, I know. Are you mad because Solo I is now Solo Trials, or that Solo II is now simply Solo, or that they change rules + names faster than us old timers can keep ...

hey ... dangit ... I'm going to try to make a comeback here ....and y'all seem hell bent on making ColdBeer even quicker ... have a little "pity" on this old guy

isn't the "requirement" to have one at the site (or any SCCA event) still on the books ...

I'm pretty sure that Mike Burke still buys one each yr ... and I'm betting that the national staff will have on at the Bristol event

most of the newer 200 TW tires are quicker than last yrs 140's ... FWIW ...assuming there are some in the sizes you would need

thanks ... it's not the rough ride ... the CRX actually rides pretty well ... the rough part is just how much the tumor pressing on a nerve head hurts ... no different in the CRX than it would be in a Caddy .... once the pain is under control, then I'll be able to start figuring out my drive schedul...
