Pelli Today
Pelli Today
As usual, thanks to everyone who worked hard getting this event in the books...Jon, John, JY, Scott, etc...
Gotta say that I came away from this one pretty satisfied with my driving. The pro results won't show it, but I felt like maybe passed a bit of a barrier from my self/work imposed auto-x absence. Whatever the reason I did enjoy this event, and think I have found the "fun" again. Thanks ETR!

Re: Pelli Today
might be ... I thought Miata's weighed in a bit higher than CRX's .... mine weighed 2185 at Road Atlanta and other than 949 rims and a hollow rear bar, I don't know what else I can take out (some of my belly ... but other than that LOL)

A good 90-91 prepped for STS should be able to get to around 2020 without doing anything crazy custom type stuff.integra55 wrote:steverife wrote:2185 w/o driver?integra55 wrote:might be ...
