If I understand this correctly, the only trackside support in the southeast will be at the majors?
Who will be doing track support here the other 50 weeks of the year?
Shane, I appreciate the...
Shane,
Looks like someone simply did a copy and paste from last years supps.
I just checked their website and it still shows no GY affiliation at this time. Just some GY odds and ends they...
Robert,
If tire rule is rescinded then Homestead, Sebring, Mid Ohio and Runoffs
If no changes, then we will attend none of the previous mentioned races and take the 15k in operational savings...
I just noticed this in fastrack.

Thank you for your suggestion. The SCCA will request that Timing and Scoring officials in all regions remove...
If you have interest in a 1996 FM Runner-up National Championship Car with 6 hours on the sealed engine PM me. Maybe we can work something out.

Russ,
Thanks for the clarification.
I race a 911 Porsche in ITR and I was going to also run it in Vintage Class. Tech told me I just needed to change the ITR to VIN and use my ITR logbooks....
Dan,
I have been reading the other thread with great interest.
I have a question about running in FS. Do you have to get a new logbook for the FS class or is it as simple as replacing the FM...
In early 2014, when Goodyear started to pull out of club racing is when I noticed the change. If a race had less than 150 entrants Goodyear would not show. Our FM was about the last open wheel car...
Frank,
89mm pin centers 12 and 6 O'clock position
Hope that helps.

Frank, how precise do you need the numbers to be?
Roughly the center hole is 54mm
6 drive pins roughly 10.75mm diameter
Spacing of pins center to center 44.50mm
My micrometer battery is getting...
The problem getting a reliable Goodyear supplier is the Goodyear tire sales numbers are just not there.
I would bet out of 300 cars this past weekend maybe 10% run GY. The largest subscribed...
Daryl,
Actually this is the first race of our season. It was a double SARRC weekend counting for 2016 points.
The problem we have getting our tires mounted and balanced locally is the formula...
Russ,
Since the Goodyear line was pulled from Competition Tires after the January 2015 majors I have not seen a Goodyear vendor at any of our races in Florida.
To tell you the truth, I don't...
This is a photo of the tire vendor area for the SCCA Sebring races this past weekend. There were 300+ cars entered for the weekend.
I will give you a hint what is wrong.....no Goodyear vendor.

I sure did not remember that about the tire rule in the past.
I am now pretty confident my wife may be correct that I can't remember anything.
Look forward to seeing you guys in Daytona. The...
Just reading through the Supps for the Daytona Runoffs and read SCCA will not enforce the FM marked tire rule.
If I am reading this correctly, I guess we will all be on stickers or scuffs for the...
Dan, I think you pretty much summed up my feelings. I personally think Doug's idea has some merit.
On the surface it appears the majority of drivers don't like the idea of a spec tire as it has been...
After reading this thread I can see both sides of the debate.
In our particular case, we have run Goodyear tires on our FM for 7 years and recently changed to Hoosier about 6 months ago. Our...
Moses, Great news with the new FM drivers. We will probably see you guys at the Atlanta Majors. Happy New Year to everyone and look forward to seeing you guys around the tracks in 2015.
Sad to hear the Texas guys won't be attending the 2 florida major weekends this year. It has always been an exciting kick off to the season. The Formula Mazdas in the southeast have disappeared. Not...
Goodbye Apex
Nice cars!
Seeing these photos makes me want to get out the paint sprayer.:D
