East Tennessee Region SCCA

It doesn't take long to recount 30 ballots... lol

So, an alternate proposal - 100tw minimum for STM? I would be ok with that move towards 100tw for STM, though. The r888 would work. I can get 235's in them. I would be ok with 100tw being allowed as well. Based on my RC1s at the final Pelli event, I don't think that would give anyone am unfair adva...

I forgot that opens up the NT01 (in 315-17) too - never ran on them, but I do have fond memories of Jim's R888s....


And I'm not sure how much participation I'm up for next year either (former pelli guy)....

Alright, I'll throw something further out there. I think the only thing I can get in a 315 - 17" is the Nitto NT05 @ 200tw. Jim and I ran a set of R888s (100tw) on his car a few years ago, which I enjoyed quite a lot (nice audible feedback, but nothing that indicated "autocross world beate...

4 carts mysteriously "woke up" (performance) in the middle (4 or 5 laps in) of a race last weekend that Pilson + I were involved in - the other two guys in the race recognized it too. The kids running the place denied that it happened or was even possible. I don't think we bothered to ask ...

heh - Mark got to observe how slower traffic (who didn't clear a lane) got treated at at Atomic + Smokey Mountain 25 years ago.

He's no longer scared of cracked ribs + whiplash....

Probably works for me.

I still want to know (no, really - nod nod wink wink) what changed on the car between August 28th (mid to upper 80s without the SuperTrapp) and Huntsville that put you at this level at Huntsville and Adesa (and pelli event #12)... The Supertrap quieted the car 6db At Huntsville 3 or so weeks ago. As...

Warnings at 97, DNF at 100.

What are the sound policies gonna be at Bristol and Smokies? The STU 350Z I'm building will probably be loudish - on the edge of 97 I'd guess I expect the SCCA national policy will be in effect. Yeah I asked about mine yesterday - low 80s even with the "race" muffler" I was expecting...

PGS9 - 79.7, 78.3, 79.2, 78.0

PES89 - 73.8, 75.0, 74.9, 74.6, 75.0, 75.9

STM92/192 - 88.8, 89.2, 88.3, 88.6, 88.8 / 88.4, 88.6, 89.6, 89.3, 88.2 - (I saw you lurking)

Good weather, a monster straight, and excellent meter position for the final event - the last best readings you'll get from pelli... 1- XP45 - Brian Robbins - 96.3, 101.7 / insert augers / 94.3, 95.6 - Brian requested a review as to why he did not get a warning before he got a DNF for 101.7 - it was...

It will have to be near OEM quiet on the exhaust for Pellissippii -that's our only current venue with a strict limit.

SF region has built their own race track and is in the process of building their own autocross facility. I think that is a very smart move on their part. Looks like they currently have exactly one usable venue within 100 miles of the bay area: http://www.sfrscca.org/autocross/sites/ Pretty pathetic...
