Re: Lets take the human error out of timing...

Just my 2 cents... which may only be worth 1 cent I know some of us (myself at times included) can or are "ubber" competitive and when you win (or lose) by 1/100 of a second there is that question of human reaction time. However, there's a term in the rally world "force majeure" ...

Re: 2009: OKEMO 1 Entry form and Information

We have had this discussion many times. i thought we had decided that 60 was the limit for burke (even though we have run as many as i think 70 at burke) and 65 at Okemo. These numbers based on Kevin's statistics and maybe Mike Wilson's from some time ago. This would allow min 3 runs per day. Also.....

Re: Seam welding, frame conecctors, foot plates

I have the Harbor Freight helmet. It works great. The only time I had an issue was working in tight space and the light sensory was blocked by a section of roll cage I was welding. It only has 2 small sensors about an inch above the eye window.

Re: Vintage Jag for Ascutney?

Does it have lights? steel roof? could it be driven on the street? If it could possibly be street driven (windows lights etc) then it may fit SP class (street prepared) with the roll bar. If convertable roll bar must be above helmet. However you would be governed by the breakout time rule. For SP cl...

Re: Thinking of changing the Turbo Rabbit TIRES

In conversations w/ the Rutan's and my own experience w/ FWD and slicks ...they wear. With the Charger we tried all different settings (some not drivable). All urethane bushings. My solution...get the car to go fast and still drive comfortably and stock up on tires. We also tried different brands an...

Re: Convertible Regulations on Unprepared vehicle?

aahh yeah. Last mention I see is in 2005 tech rules. Did it accidently get cut? or is it listed someplace other than crash protection? Brian
