Re: 2018 season-Who's excited!

Autocross, Thunder Mountain, and hopefully Knox Mountain. Autocross for sure. Thunder mountain maybe. Knox not this year.

RE-71R is not an ice tire

Don't even kid yourself that its's going to work. It doesn't. As in "the black hole of traction" not working.

That is all.

Re: 2018 PAX Released

Exciting! I'm moving (Up? Down?) to E/Mod.

Frankly, rules stifle my creativity.

Re: How differentials work

I use that video in my MX classes at school.

It was forwarded to me from a friend who taught MX at BCIT.

Probably THE best video you will ever see on diffs.

Re: Question - should I exclude myself from the results

But if people get their knickers in a knox in this volunteer sport because they didn't win.....

... I don't think it's YOUR problem.

We could mimic the school system and make sure EVERYONE gets a ribbon.

Re: Question - should I exclude myself from the results

Since you ~do~ run the course, or sections of the course, in a vehicle prior to the formal walk through, you have an advantage to knowing the course in a vehicle better than others. You're not always FTD or Top PAX, so I wouldn't say this is a massive advantage. You are a very good and very accompli...

Re: 2017 Vernon Dates - Sept 17 & Oct 1

Nuts.

The V8 Firefly is proving itself to be dependable, but I have a meeting I have to be at on October 1st, and can't make the event. Probably for the best because this car is really nothing but tire smoke :)

Next season for sure!

Best o' luck all o' y'all!
