I'd pick up an extra one and work on that, then the install would be a simple swap. Plus if I fuxor something on your car again, you can still drive it.

I just signed up my brother for DS. There are about as many DS as SM people...
It is going to be sad when I get beat by a DS car driven well.

I should be in the Salisburys' AS STi and at present, Shawn is co-driving my mom's almost bone-stock '99 Forester in STS w/ my mom and little brother.Posted: Thu Aug 17, 2006 1:21 pm
Should be great fun.. but I'm certainly going to have to miss the Sept 4th WDCR at Fedex in exchange (Kharmic debt owed to the spouse)...

Yeah plus the next one looks to be SCCA members only so that leaves me out (unless I can join before then

Hey Katie, got a tire question for you.
I can't seem to find in the 2006_solo_rules.pdf a list of tires & such. My brother wants to know, and I don't know where to tell him to look.

What class? Stock, SP, SM can run DOT legal R-compound tires. ST classes have to run a tire w/ a tread wear rating greater than 140. The Prepared and Mod classes can run non-DOT legal R-compounds, like drag radials.zaxrex wrote:Hey Katie, got a tire question for you.

What to Bring?

So based on our experience at the AutoX School several months ago, I feel we should be better prepared for this Challenge.
Specifically, I remember we were in need of a few things that one wouldn't necessarily think of. That and we'd look pretty "with it" if we showed up with the following ready to go:
1) Jack and jack stands - remembering Julian's problem with his sway bar
2) Fold-up table - this would make lunches a lot more comfortable
3) Tent / awning - for protection from sun and / or rain
4) Cooler w/food & drink - probably something for each individual
5) Fold-up chair - again, something for each individual
6) Tools - do we want to start a communal toolbox (like the HR folks) or share our personal tools?
I think I can provide a small fold-up table. Does anyone have a jack and stands that they'd be willing to bring up? How about a tent / awning? Maybe this could be a future DCAWD club purchase?
Thoughts?

We have a pretty decent sized tent we bought to go to the WDCR Solo's this year. I forget the measurements but its a good size and all are welcome underneath.
Katie, how hard would it be for me to change class to ESP since I'm now Stage 2 and catless???

I'm going to be leaving my car up in MD while I take a business trip the next week. Because of this, I am not bringing the trailer, otherwise I wuold pimp it out for equipment transport duty.
Now if somebody else had a trailer hitch, they could drive it back for me. Then we could bring the air compressor, ramps, spare wheels and tires, big coolers, tool chests...
I have recently secured the railings back together so it is more safe.

Anyone have a set of 17"x7" rims w/ a 55 offset we could "borrow" for the weekend? Shawn's got tires to fit, but no rims w/ a 5x100 bolt pattern. TIA
Posted: Tue Sep 12, 2006 9:51 am
They can actually be anywhere between 49-61 offset 17"x7" assuming they would fit a stock 06 WRX with 235/40/17 tires.
Also if you are running a class that lets you use R compounds (not ST classes) that is not running the same heat as DS you can borrow my tires on your rims.
