http://www.mazdatalkforum.com/download/file.php?id=449 Konig just got back with me and said they are still offering the deal, so i pulled the trigger on a set of 4. My car is lighter and i'm running smaller tires, so i guess i am a little less worried for my integra than your R53. The Jongbloed whe...

Bummer theres a $90 increase for 1" width increase... I have my heart set on 15x8 for 205/50/15.

Konig is offering the 4x100 15x8 flatout to nasa racers for $70 a pop. Could replace every year or two at that price.

So, this strikes me as pretty surprising, but i've been reading about all these different wheels, cheap to expensive, that have cracked or even failed catastrophically. You know which wheel has never been mentioned? Tirerack TR Motorsports. They're cheap, reasonably light, and very available. It see...

I wish i couldv'e made it to more events. I had a good streak going there at the end, and the car just got faster... again.

So 949 racing wheels may not be invincible either: http://honda-tech.com/showthread.php?t=3118761 Maybe they were driving like jerks...? Also, this may be for the gen 2 wheels version. However, the consensus seems to be if you are running thin spoke, lightweight wheels on track, check them frequentl...

Glad to hear the mini is back together. I just got done welding in a 6-point roll bar with a friend. I also upper the spring rates, changed my front camber, and added some oil pressure & temperature gauges. My kumhos are pretty shot, but i'm using this event for the TT check ride so i can start ...

WOW! What wheels are you going to run?

If you are able to make it I will be at the fall finale. I'm getting a check ride for my time trial license.

I think the fact the mini is heavier and less evenly distributed than a miata/e30 just puts a real pounding into the front wheels. :? This was my first thought... I could probably run the same wheels on my integra for many seasons, and since i have less weight and less power it probably wouldn't be...

Any interest in the NASA karting enduro at SPK on Nov 2?

That is incredibly frusterating! Enkei wheels? It's good the failure didn't happen until the later part of the karrusel, because if you went off earlier you might have hit the outside wall. I'm really sorry to see it happen.

Owch... Good luck and hope to see you there.

Thanks for sharing Mike, it was great to be able to compare and contrast your video (granted, the cars are PRETTY different) with mine.

What's the setup on that FR-S?

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 ...

Our lap times are pretty close. It's a shame we aren't running the same group. My times were around 1'45" and when I didn't hit traffic my times were within a second of each other. I have done some minor weight reduction since then so we'll see what it drops to!

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. In...

I'm signed up for both days (black integra #512) along with my dad (dark green eXpresso neon #531). At the last event, Dave Valeri and I mixed it up with the Golden boys (Mike and Jim). Eric W was there with his miata and ACooperR was there with his Mini S. Anyone else thinking or planning on attend...

The course layout was great! Hats off to the organizers for a great event.

Forgot to mention I'm running fairly modest 205/50/15 kumho xs street tires on 15x7 knock off wheels. It also has a gsr tranny with an oem helical lsd.

I have the 1992 acura integra RS. it has the original 1.8L non-VTEC engine, 140HP, so on-par with miatas. It's about as quick as Dave Valeri's miata at road courses. It's FWD layout is similar to the smallbore-approved civic, except it's heavier which puts me at an additional disadvantage. It's a ch...
