Good call! I had my reynard painted to match the yellow tape I had :-)

That's a bummer! Sorry!
Assuming you make weight, I think it would be up to your competitors to protest your run(s). I don't think that the bodywork falling off would be something the course...

Hi Don,
One thing that made a big difference in both my cars is using mostly water, with just a small amount of coolant. I tried to run a typical 50/50 mix so I didn't *have* to drain the...

Hey Ben!
I talked to Jeff Spear a couple years ago about "our" tires going away:

Yes. I picked up a nail at an event, somebody had a plug repair that got me through the event. After that, I put a typical patch on the inside and it was fine. I don't know if any business will do...

Yeah, there was always a picture in the rule book but I can't find it either. The guidance I got from Heyward Wagner last year at Nationals was "all that really maters for C mod cars is that you put...

Sorry, we didn't record David's runs.

Dang if! We'll miss you!

Wow, less than 200 spots left!! Don't wait!!

David and I are planning to be there. I'm kind of hoping Brandon breaks the pattern of "even years" and wins this year, but maybe David can give him a run this year!!!! Nationals is, by far, my...

Yep, Rev limiters and gearing are two Autocross topics that always bring out strong opinions. I'm not convinced that either topic has a simple "right" answer or a "one size fits all" answer. So, I...

While he's there, have him hang out until the end of CM and take a picture of the impound form with all our weights. You could post the picture and then we can compare that with the PDF. :-)

It does seem kind of odd, doesn't it. The challenge is that weights are often based on what's inside the car, like engine displacement, induction type, tire size, chassis type, etc, etc, etc. The...

I hear you!!! The process seems a bit obscure and there's very little mentioned in the rule book. I guess I haven't heard of any bad stories so I'm not concerned. The only story I remember is from...

Weight slips? Hmmm, interesting question.

Like Pru said, I would think that any slip a competitor is given would be unofficial, so it wouldn't matter much in a protest. From an *official*...

Hey Mike, I didn't see AIM as a data source you support, is that right? The Fit motor uses a CAN bus for it's data and David Ferguson/Veracity provided a really nice Dash and Data logger from AIM...

The car let him down, my fault. The back of the car was kind of jumping out and he spun on his last run.

Awesome! We'll be rolling in tomorrow.

Yes, Yes, Yes!!

Thank you!!!!

Your welcome to try mine too, it's essentially the same as Eric's (ewcmr2). I suspect that David's shoes are about as big as can work, so you can try those shoes too.

One bottle for oil sump overflow and one for Coolant overflow (and the trans breather goes into the oil overflow too)

Yep, I have two 1 quart bottles.

I'm using KFP Orange from Averill. They don't seem to have a really high coefficient of friction so I have to push the pedal relatively hard, which I like. I don't like brakes that grab hard when I...

Corey, you made a great choice, congratulations!

Here's a little free advice, it's worth every penny :-)

First off, some folks get intimidated about driving a race car. Yeah, it's a blast, but...

here's my guess:

The oil pump does a couple things:
- it moves oil from the engine oil pan to the oil sump (where you're measuring)
- It pumps oil from the oil sump to the engine for lubrication...

Crit,
Welcome to CM! You're lucky to have several CM cars to run with! I added a little to Pru's answers below

It seems like the intent of adding 10lbs to the FF minimum weight is to minimize the impact of changing to the spec tire. So, by *not* adding the weight to CM FF cars, it stays with the spirit and...

The spec tire exception is already there :-) :

Exceptions to the Club Racing GCR for all cars in this class:
1. Spec tire requirements do not apply.

Thanks Pru. Good advice as always!
