99' Ford Ranger 3.0L 5 speed

Looking at possibly selling our third vehicle, which is a 99' Ranger. It is a great light duty hauler and is fantastic mechanical condition, and decent cosmetic condition. My wife is a nurse and we need to get something in 4x4 so that we can get her to work in the snow, so I am throwing this out to ...

Re: TNT Autocross Saturday Feb 22nd at Harry Grove

Great time guys, and good to get all that seat time in before the season ramps up. I learned that my car needs some suspension tuning, so big thanks to Caitlin, Nate, Josh, and especially Danny for the thoughts and suggestions. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eV5OksF--cc&feature=c4-overview&l...

I think it makes sense to lump, natural competitors with those parameters.

Re: Determining 2014 CDC Optional Classes

My suggestions from the other thread: "Name to be determined RWD": Coupes, Hatchbacks, and Sedans 2.5L or under, RWD, no forced induction (unless factory equipped). This would allow Twins, Rx8s, some BMWs, and the like "Name to be determined FWD": Coupes, Hatchbacks, and Sedans 2...

Re: Rivals or ZII's

Everything I have read says that in optimal conditions, the Rivals will outperform the ZII's very slightly. However, in the cold, very hot, or any wet, the ZII's are superior by a larger margin. Considering around here is all of those conditions other than optimal most of the time (since we aren't i...

Re: Determining 2014 CDC Optional Classes

Looks good Mike. I think seeing where the demand goes and adding or eliminating groups to narrow down based on appeal is a good way to go. I'll be FR-S/BRZ of course (I'd propose the name "[Something] 86", purely cause it sounds cool and will be easier to parse in the data). Spec? Group? F...

Re: MSX: North American MotorSports Expo

So the guys and I were thinking about going. The show management company that is putting it on for SCCA is actually one of our clients at work (we do expo management software) and I was gonna see if I could get some free tickets. Since it is free to SCCA members, it is kinda a moot point though. As ...

Re: Proposed Changes in 2014 CDC Autocross Series

We talked about a bunch of this stuff when the whole FRS/BRZ separate class thread was brought up. I believe the decision made there was CDC isn't officially going to change anything but if the FRS/BRZ guys want to police their own class that's fine with CDC. Well has that happened?

Re: Proposed Changes in 2014 CDC Autocross Series

Lots of people like the more recent idea but it doesn't really offer anything new to people already in smallbore and seems to result in a lot of small classes. I would say that you may be looking at this the wrong way. The concept here is to give people something additional to compare with. One of ...

+Agree on the 9 event pack, then people can just buy per event after that. Would be cool if the 9 event pack could include the club dues as well to take care of it all at once.

I think you'll always have those one off cars that just don't fit. Give them a shot in what makes the most sense, or some cars may just be too good and can't play in the fun classes. You could look where it indexes and see what it is closest to and throw it in the gaggle who matches up. Things like ...

Re: Proposed Changes in 2014 CDC Autocross Series

Actually as Denise alluded, the FRS/BRZ has a lot more power than a Miata but a little heavier. Last year most of the FRS/BRZs were running the factory supplies tires. Our (organizers) thought was that a well prepared FRS/BRZ may actually blow a Miata away (given the same driver). So here is the pr...
