East Tennessee Region SCCA

My plan was to attend this year again, but vacation time may be an issue with all of the other stuff going on this year so I'll have to wait until July to make the call.

Yeah, I'd bet Jon is right. Even back when Subaru was running a compare with a Volvo and a BMW back around 2005 they had the passenger seat outfitted with brakes and kill switches.

SPS/Solotime is where I bought my SA2015. Not a great selection of the SA2015 yet since the standard just was approved in Q4, thus the delay in implementing the usual sunset for the 2000 helmets. I bought mine since the old one had served me well for 7 seasons of car and kart racing and autoxing in ...

You guys are talking about West Haven Auto Parts on Western Ave? I need a source for my 110 fuel now so I'm interested. Especially at $10/gallon instead of $13-15 at the kart track. I guess that's a pump and not in cans? Thanks!

Rebuilt top end and replaced water pump impeller and seals. Bought a new SA2015 helmet. Done.

Not going since they changed the date to mid-March.

Well that cost me $150 and the Dixie tour. SOBs

I'll be there to run and work. I will probably be doing Safety all weekend but will help where and when I can.

The only way I'd bumper-pull something so big and heavy is with a Hensley Arrow or the similar ProPride hitch. Just sold my Hensley with the big trailer. If I buy another bumper pull trailer I'll get another one. The price is stiff but you cannot beat the security it provides.

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.

Usually one or two Champ Tours is all I'll focus on for the year. ProSolo flips my trigger. And I'll give the Match Tour another shot after only running the first one (at Dixie) in 2013 and I didn't like it.

Combined schedule with surfaces: March 4-6: Moultrie, Georgia Champ Tour on concrete now! April 1-3: Oceanside Showdown, San Diego Match Tour April 8-10: El Toro, California Pro Solo April 22-24: Crows Landing, California Champ Tour April 29-May 1: Crows Landing, California Pro Solo May 6-8: Wilming...

I and maybe Kieran plan on these:

-Dixie Tour since it's on concrete now
-Bristol Match
-Spring Nats Pro
-Spring Nats Tour
-Toledo Pro
-Wilmington Tour
-Wilmington Pro or Blytheville Pro
-Finale
-Nats

I'm always available (on the forums at least) to discuss and help on kart questions. Send me a PM with specific questions, concerns, etc, and we can discuss. That goes for anyone/everyone interested.

FYI, I will have a JC kart for sale for the 2017 season. Baby girl will be running it in early-2016 to get more used to it before stepping up to the JB kart. Will make it available for a good price when the time comes. We've owned it since 2009 and it's clean and very reliable.
