So got screwed by the stealership. Brought it in because I have a service traction warning on my DIC and a check engine light saying cyl.2 misfire. They had it for 8 days charged me 1100 bux and 2 miles after I leave the dealership all the lights and warnings start going off again. And the misfire is even WORSE than when I dropped it off. That was on friday. I wasn't able to get in touch with the guy I was dealing with yesterday (they are closed on the weekend) so I called GM and filed a claim. unfortunately work was crazy today so I wasn't able to call. Gonna try to call tomorrow and get this taken care of.
Also the steering knuckles are on backorder with no new release date ![]() *sigh* Everything else is either shipping or here already so I just need a weekend to start installing everything, but if my car is in the shop again I dunno if I'll have it ready for the TnT on may 1st ![]()

I was more asking about things to bring for the day. I assume you are given a spot that you will be posted up all day tweaking your car, hanging out and waiting for your heat. I assume you should have a cooler and a couple chairs or something, right?

Well, the Evo came and went, and I still never got around to going to one of these. I will definitely be there next time (7/17), but sadly I don't have a car of my own atm (I ride a motorcycle and occasionally )drive the family's grand cherokee).
I'm still torn between an NA/NB Miata, 914/4, 240Z, AW11 MR2 or an E36 coupe as my car of choice, but eventually I'll decide on one and get some runs in.

tires tires tires, i could be top 20 overall in a stock miata with big race tires like mine has.
then practice practice practice! power means zip if you can't control it! each month is a different layout, probably be going clockwise-ish instead of counter as we did this month.

Oh wait, yeah...thats what I meant. I'll be getting new wheels at the end of this year, once those go on I'll be able to invest in a decent set of tires for racing. Till then I'm kinda stuck with my dunlop sport sigs for now

I got a quick question about 2 driver cars, specifically the issue of race numbers with 2 driver cars. I have a friend who is interested in trying autoX out, but is still kinda shaky about the whole thing. So I offered to let him drive my car at the next event. Everyone I've seen doing the duel driver thing had 2 sets of number magnets so it wasn't an issue but I only have one set for myself, and since my friend's never tried obviously he doesn't have a set. Do we do the tape numbers for him and try to stick my magnet on top and hope it doesn't fly off?

or use tape to make a 1 in front of yours.. say your # is 5, then it would be 15 for him. thats what most of us do without getting extra magnets

Does anyone run Mustangs in this? I've been thinking about it but I have a supercharged Mustang that might be a bit much for the tight cornering.

I haven't made it out this season yet (still trying to finish up rebuilding from the fire last febuary) but I remember a couple mustangs running last season. As well as a couple camaros, a vette, and an impala. Just get out there and try it out and see for yourself!
