Capital Driving Club Discussion Forum

A couple other things came to mind that you may have already considered, but just in case. I'm not sure how well cleared the field is after harvest. Corn stalks are tough as nails - is there a danger of tire and undercarriage damage from the remains? Tilled fields tend to be quite a bit looser than...

I don't really have anything against the Miata from a daily driving perspective. My concern is more the lack of roll over protection when driving it through a cornfield/woods. That said, it may not be a bad idea to pick one up and put a full cage into it. Then I could potentially use it for legitima...

Okay, so here is my crazy idea for the off season: I'm looking to buy a beater car and keep my FR-S off the road during the salty winter months. Now my parents have a few acres of cornfield which, during the fall/winter, is not being used. So, I think it would be a lot of fun to set up some sort of ...

Times and the car I used: My RX8 47.8 46.99 46.81 Josh's FR-S, big thanks for letting me codrive :D 45.27 44.72 44.32 44.66 44.46+1 44.59 The Family Truckster wagon thanks again for the experience! 52.22 50.01 What's the setup on that FR-S? Dunlop ZII's - 235/40R17 AP Racing Brakes (front only) Ohl...

Quick question for you guys. I got my annual inspection sticker at the last TrackDaze event. Does this mean I can fill out the tech inspection form myself or do I still have to take it to some sort of shop to get inspected? I know I can skip the even tech line, but it seemed like I still needed to g...

I'll be there in Blue group both days. Have your been solo'd? I'd love to feel an frs out on the track. I'm also willing to give ride alongs to interested cdc members. Yes, I'll be running solo all weekend and can give rides if anyone is interested. It will be my first time on Shenandoah though.

Totally, they were excellent. Didn't you sell out of them in like 15 minutes?

I'll be there for the TnT on Sunday, so if you could leave them with Ed I'll get them from him the next day, Thanks Josh!

Sounds good, I might be there for TnT as well. Still debating.

Josh here. I meant to message you about that. They are in my car. I forgot that I put them in the pouch behind the passengers seat.

I'll be at the next CDC event in Frederick and will bring them with me. If you need them before that, let me know and we can arrange some way to get them to you.

I was there as well. Here was my fastest session (1:31.25)

I believe they only cancelled the Friday event, which was Advanced Driver Education I think. I was there for the Saturday and Sunday HPDE and had a good time. Also recognized a few people (or at least their cars) from CDC as well.

I noticed something else strange, possibly a bug in what you are using to generate the spreadsheet. Tom Lay's (04 S2000) index score doesn't seem to have been computed correctly. Assuming I did the simple math correctly, his index time should be 42.07. It doesn't effect me, but he would drop to 6th ...

Mike Adrian's afternoon runs were in Jared's Miata so they should have Jared's index applied to them. Thanks for taking care of the results! Also, unless Fred and "Big Hoss" have managed to drop over 200lbs. of their cars, they are hurting themselves by being in C132 when all other FR-S/B...

You should have stuck around Fred, you might have been able to keep your spot as top 86/FR-S/BRZ

Thanks to all the organizers. Had a lot of fun even though it was crazy cold. Here was my best run (40.57s) - http://youtu.be/lPg8-Eos-aU Looking forward to driving the Cobra Also made it to the Test & Tune on Sunday and managed to shave another second off my time: http://youtu.be/xCZyt3Y_UQQ Lo...

Do only the first 6 runs count if you signed up for an extra slot?

I too had a lot of fun today as well as had my fair share of off course issues. I also have footage of my two best runs, which may be useful for people if they want to get a slow time, but look cool while doing it. http://youtu.be/cerdGZyKovs http://youtu.be/5nY4feXvJYQ I also want to say thanks to ...
