2.5... why? you have a muffler you wanna donate?????

airflow math and a recomended exhaust diam chart in Maximum Boost recomended about 2 1/4" but 2.5" is everywhere. went with cheap & available.

Steve, you talkin smack with my car on another forum again??

I have the stuff to make it white, just don’t have the time. Unless there is a rule about appearance and massive quantities of visible rust that will not allow me to compete, it’s gonna look like crap this weekend.

What’s the official scoop on autocross cars at national type events? I looked but didn’t see anything about rust buckets like my Tucson Red spotted hood.

I'll most likely be leaving Knoxville about 1ish.

What is the best route to get there?

I have a room reserved at the Comfort Inn. there is no parking of rigs on friday night at event sight (suposedly) and the motel is next to the mall for truck/trailer parking (suposedly)

Ted, is your car above the minimum weight for F/I FWD's in SM? It was 1883 lbs with 1/4 tank of gas before I added the taller block and turbo stuff. Has to be 1900. I think I should be fine. Thanks for the input on the sound. still think I need at least a straight flow thru muffler. It can decel ba...

I jinxed the scirocco by entering it just now. Everything that can go wrong seems to be doing just that. It can always get worse ...

Thanks. what time does the tech squad need to be there?

I already know my car is unsafe, with that loose nut behind the wheel and all......

Does tech need a volunteer Sunday? I have to goto Huntsvile abalamer for work Sunday afternoon. It would be great if I can get my worker stuff done early so I can leave as soon as my runs are done. please???? Thanks

Do they make 16" cantilever slicks? nope, they don't. straight sidewall on the 16" stuff. with about a 10 inch rim a 25x12 front and a 25x 13 rear would do the trick. the 15" rims have a 23x9.5 cantilever that work on a 7 inch wide rim when the sanction bodies decided to limit wheel ...

for road racing, SCCA doesn't allow much in the way of forced induction cars. Your mini is new, so if you could it would possibly be in showroom stock. You are not allowed to change alignment settings much so you would destroy tires quickly. Road racing is a full contact sport. Do not take the car o...
