Car Classing is based on engine size:
- Class 1/1R is for engines under 2.3 liters, except Honda S2000 and Lotus
Elise/Exige.
- Class 2/2R is for engines over 2.2 liters, but under 4.0 liters, plus Honda S2000.
- Class 3/3R is for engines over 3.9 liters, plus Lotus Elise/Exige.
- Class S2000 is only for Honda S2000 on street tires.
- Class X/XR is an open class for any engine displacement and induction.

Rotary engine multiplies displacement by 2.0. Usage of forced induction multiplies displacement by 1.5. (This is in addition to the rotary multiplier, if applicable.) Tires with a wear rating under 140 must use the R class.

Should be in for this one too.

Would anyone be able to take a racing beat muffler, midpipe and test pipe to nealb for me? I'll obviously bring it to you. PM me if you can.

Preferably someone on the eastside, since i'm in Plano.

I do not mind throwing it in the truck, but you will have to get it to me in Arlington.

I've already got it; he dropped it by my house last night, then we did it.

I plan to give it to Neal and Bob on Sunday.

Yep.

Looks FUN.

I'll be looking for a codrive on this one... Don't matter class

I don't suppose I could get someone with experience that would be willing to post up a version of this diagram that has the best drive line scribbled on it? ;)

In! Can't wait to be back at Crandall.

By signing up, I think its safe to assume I've pretty much won class 1. Just as long as I don't come in last...
Sorry John!:drive:

Find me in the morning and we'll do a course walk together. On most days, minor changes occur when setting it up. I drive the red GenCoupe.

Weather report.... 47* with three days of rain prior to the event. Jerrett, you're gonna need about 30 people to tame the weepers!

There is no one right line. Depends on car, setup, surface irregularities, etc. Show up early and walk the course as many times as possible. Follow others and see where they walk, ask for some tips if someone seems friendly. The biggest benefit of a walk for a novice is picking out some landmarks or key cones to locate when you are racing at speed.

Going, going......59 and counting

You have 24 points. Ashely has 18 and John Clark has 17. Nine points to the winner, so either can catch you.

I just looked at the point assignments, so only 6 points for 2nd, 4 for 3rd, 3 for 4th. Its gonna be closer than I thought.

How much is it worth to someone to have/not have a spoiler come in and take first?? :punchout:

Uh oh .... the pressure is building!::BigWhack

I might bring the M3 with the heated seats.

Who ya have in mind Mikey. I'll be in class 3 so I'm unavailable :D

I was thinking that Bob might want to establish his new autox dominance now, rather than wait for next season!

As in Bob and the Bandit?

Bob is driving the black and gold car, so he is playing the role of the Bandit. That means the title would remain Smokey and the Bandit. However, if Bob was to drive a shitbox 1977 Pontiac sedan, then you might be on to something.

I have to bail on Sunday...the GC has developed a sizable clunk that I need to diagnose before I drive it hard again :(
