The Atlanta event on October 7th has been cancelled, all other events are still going on as planned.
Crash477 09-10-2006 07:34 AM

but all the other events are too far for me. No challenge for me this year :(

Does anyone know the schedule for the Challenge at Ripken, MD this Saturday? When is registration/tech, course open for walking, etc? There is nothing on the Web site or MyAutoEvents.

:lol: @ picture of an all season radial on an autocross flyer

I think an RE070 would have been more appropriate. :lol:

I'd run if it was held anywhere close to OH.

Thanks - forgot to check there! They even have the run order too:)

Hey now, me any my RE92s are gonna have a fun time tomorrow :) Just remember squeal is good, squall is bad. I just bought some "Max Velocity" energy drink so that should make me 5 seconds faster... at least. **** ****, I need to be up in 6 hours.

12 DS, now with a boost gauge!

Great time despite the rain. Glad I ran 4th heat. Grats to the top 5 in each and the "top dog"... It was nice meeting new people too including the guy in the black WRX wagon in ESP.. Hope I didnt slow you down too much by running before you. And the first time I've had fun working the course... 2nd heat Pole 10 rulez :P

Cost of entry: $35 (I think)
Other things that might have cost money: $xx
Winning SM in the oldest, highest mileage (rolled 175,000mi on the way home), lowest powered (naturally-aspirated, baby!), probably smallest tired car in the 28-competitor SM field: Priceless! :cool:

Lots o' fun out there today, and even the weather decided to cooperate - eventually. Hope those of you who came from far, far away have/had a safe trip back home.

Pat-

Nice driving today. I'm always impressed that you can lay-the-smack-down on so many cars in SM. I should have done better in STU but 2nd isn't too bad. Fun as always! Thanks for the co-drive Car vs Driver (Dave). Nice to meet some more NASIOC peeps too.

Would your car have been any better, Dave? I don't know how yours compares to the other Dave's as far as STU prep goes.

And thanks for the compliments. You ain't half bad yourself! :) I've commented in other threads that it's disheartening to run well in SM, and then see you and Mike Neary running times right on top of mine - on street tires!

I think Nates car would have been a little better but not by much. I think that the biggest problem with the tire/wheel combo we are running is the f-d up offset wheels that Nate bought. The from CE-28N wheels are 17x9, which is great but the offset is 35mm. We run a staggered track by using 17x8 wheels in the rear with a 45mm or 48mm offset. That puts us 20mm+ up front. I am NOT convinced that this is the way to go right now. I think a lower offset is needed in the front to maintain better steering feel. The front plants and then slides in a strange way before the weight transfers fully in the rear of the car. I believe that is part of my problem with sweepers, steady state push owns me. I think of I could set the car up from the very start it would be MUCH faster but it's not my car.

Can you go down to just watch everyone race? Does it cost to just watch?

Everyone gets a free spectator, and I was told additional spectators can get in. I've heard free, as well as $5... and a quick search of subaruchallenge.com didn't provide any results.



btw, it's 6:44... and FloridaSubarus.com is ready :disco:

Anyone can spectate for free, they will just need to sign the waiver to enter the event grounds. Participants may bring 1 guest who will also get a catered lunch at the event included in the entry fee.



btw, it's 8:36... and I just posted todays event results to [url]www.SubaruChallenge.com[/url] :)
