    Default SCCA #8 Results discussion

    SCCA Event #8 Results Posted (Thanks, general)


    Hmmm... guess we know who's picking up the MME HMTT (Holly's Miata Traveling Trophy) for this one, sammm...

    Though it looks like most of C Stock should consider taking up needle point... Yeesh... Over 400 cones between us... Yikes!

    I'm filing a protest! When I came off my last run, I heard the announcer state - That put's him in 3rd place in tire class. WTF?

    "Holly" me if you must!

    I think it's about $2500/day compared to mineral wells at about $300...

    rough numbers (as TMS you have to have onsite paramedics etc etc etc) but gives you a ballpark

    If you're the car I think you are, you kept blowing by the last gate before the finish like everyone else did....

    we rented it at 200 a day when i was at baylor, the baylor driving club... we even had acces to the cone trailer. we could almost do a miata day out there.... without insurance at least.. we signed waivers when we did it, not like anyhting was going to happen, only one car on course at a time etc...
