Re: Results - July 6 2017

I have never had my front lip touch the ground in a autox course before. That one spot was bumpy! :D https://youtu.be/baWjL35j2cA

Re: 2017 Canadian Nationals

Nice run otherwise... looks like the course was pretty wide open in a couple spots. Lots of rev limiter action.

Re: 2017 new venue

Took a rip up Silver Star this past Sunday evening... there is A LOT of gravel and sand on the lot. Size is great, but it would have to be seriously cleaned off before we could hold anything up there. Even if it is cleaned, it may be pretty bumpy. Just FYI.

Anyone trustworthy to tune on Hondata? That seems to be the issue.

Flat Deck Trailer: Beg/borrow/steal/rent?!?

Anyone on the site have a flat deck trailer I could borrow/rent/use for a few days next week? I have come to the realization that driving down the Coquilhalla at a sustained 4000rpms isn't the best way to break in my brand new engine.

Re: 2017 new venue

I will go check out the condition of the pavement up at Silver Star. I would suspect it's not that great anymore but worth a look since I live on the way up there anyways.

Re: 2017 new venue

BCMA used to hold an annual race at Silver Star...I haven't been up since the snow is off, but I assume it's all frost heaved now? I remember when they re paved it years ago and it was great for a few years (just a little dusty).

Re: 2017 new venue

I lobbied the organizers at Area 27 back in December to host some autocross on their huge, freshly paved paddock based on the value of teaching car control skills in a low risk environment. I was told that they may do one autocross day in the season although I have yet to get a date. It is a bit of...
