You sure about that?

Hmmm, that would present and intresting chase... :lol:

Tell you what...you put Toyos on that thing, and we'll see about ignoring the other things :wink:

Well...I've searched and can't find Toyos. I *DO* have some old BFGs that will fit, will that work?

Rsmith, are you an Ag? Going to the 40th tamscc reunion?

Costas, try http://www.argentlab.com/ for Toyos.

was never part of the sports car club but rode with the aggie motorcycle club some.

Costas, try http://www.argentlab.com/ for Toyos.

Let me clarify.

I can find toyos....just not toyos that are big enough for my rims. They are 12" wide in the front and 13" wide in the back. 8) 8)

That's why I counter-offered on the BFGs as they were the spec tire for T/A and are very hard/durable/lastlongtime/notgofast.

So what sort of lap times do you turn at msr-c? I have no problems with the concept of you running in our group, we can easily declare a fun run. To be fair to others, we'll need to ensure you'll either walk away or otherwise not affect race results. I think we can work it out so you can hang out with the clan and be on the same schedule. That'll make it a more fun weekend for you I'd think.

I've only ran the car once on a real track and that was VIR for the UTCC last July. I'll be running it this weekend at the TWS Double National (assuming all keeps going ok) and then hopefully the NASA #2 at Cresson....SOooo....no clue what times it will turn. Heck, I just got back from dyno'ing it this morning!

I have mixed feelings about running with CMC/AI and it is mostly to preserve your racing. Starting out, I got my first seat time in ASedan back before they were a National class and so we ran with the IT cars. While I loved the traffic management lessons, I strived very hard to never effect the outcome of another class' race. When passing cars in groups I made sure I passed them all or I waited till a place I could do so (assuming I wasnt in a battle that moment also). Ditto for running S2 or IT, if leaders came up on me I always tried to let them past as a pack so as not to effect their race. I know that technically 'its all racing', but the last thing I want to do is cause someone not to catch someone else, or interrupt some good dicing and have that effect the year-end-standings.

That, and my little clutch no likey standing starts!! If I was in the front I'm sure some (most? all?) guys would walk me pretty bad (that, and my first gear is DEEEEEEEP)! So I'd probably have to start in the back and then work my way up as I could.

Hopefully we'll get combined practice and that will for sure be fun. We can chat about options at the track. 8) 8)

I wish you and Countryman would get those hooptie B4C's prepped ( :lol: ) for CMC!

Let's see...CMC or Scratcher...hmmm... :shock:

I keeeed I keeeeed!! CMC may one day be in my future but SCCA will have to allow them it ITR or something. It is stupid to have this many comp cars and NOT allow them to run with scca. GHEY. My schedule is hectic and I like have both organizations to run with. 8)

HOWEVER, I have talked some of my crewdogs into CMC and one just bought a car yesterday and should be working towards his license later this year. Another crewdog is looking hard. I already sent you the Alien (Gary Robertson) and he'll race his FIRST race (sniff sniff) at Cresson with you guys! I'm a big believer in CMC (assuming you guys can stop rules creep...which, to me, is what killed ASedan :roll: ) and keep my eyes on you guys.

Lastly, I'd likely start with a shell for a CMC effort. Miss B4C gets too good a gas mileage and blows cold ac and is entirely WAY too much fun to daily drive to make into a car-that-is-raced. Besides, I have enough hard spares to not need to tear her up anyway!
