Cory has a style all his own!

My style is kinda boring.

Nice finish Cory. Haha.

MPREZIV · 2012-09-25, 12:12 PM

I actually twisted my wrist and hurt it yanking on the steering wheel into that finish. I can't believe I held on to it. The car was SERIOUSLY trying to go through the lights backwards.

SoyKraut · 2012-09-25, 01:33 PM

I think it's officially time to start the Cory needs a quick rack fund. Where do we make donations?

Bribe the hell out of the SPAC, or it's a moot point.

Here is a better view of Cory's spin:

Looks like I missed a hell of a weekend at Fernley

I'm out for the season, car's dead.

Dead?

rory_a · 2012-09-27, 09:28 AM

Well, limp. Out for a while. Won't have parts off to ship out for a week or two, and won't have them back for a few weeks. So, it'll be a couple months before she breaths again.

Rory...You, me, my car, 2 driver group. The offer is on the table. Just don't launch it like it's an STI with 2 step.

A1337STI · 2012-10-08, 10:45 AM

So I finally made a 2012 Event ! (just in time for the end of the season) And yep AutoX is still fun.

On my rally car I tossed in a bigger front sway i've had in storage (18mm? maybe 19mm) , and re-attached my rear. My car was on some 205/55/R16 Michelin touring tires thought i bought from Rays tires exchange ... not exactly the best choice but 5 for $125 was a good deal.

my biggest problem was fighting brake lock up, LOL, Rally tires on gravel and dirt grip MUCH better than my michelins on the new sluri seal .. (which btw felt pretty damn good!)

It was a lot of fun, saw a (new to me) driver in ESP , made me wish i could have seen Ahren (i think?) vs cody! hehehe

I Might have to try and make a season out of autox in 2013 .. (esp cause I'll be doing way less rally for a year or two with a new baby on the way)

anywho it was good to get out there again and see some familiar faces...

cody · 2012-10-08, 12:38 PM

Consistent competition in ESP would be way fun...but not enough for me to drive more than 10 miles from my house.

SoyKraut · 2012-10-10, 11:19 PM

Great last weekend of the season! Thanks to everyone who made it, and made it possible. Can't wait for next year! Here are a few videos from this weekend in the meantime.

Missed having Cory and the steamroller there. Hopefully he got a big buck while on vacation!

MattR · 2012-11-01, 03:38 PM

So, is anyone planning to attend the Scca End-of-year Banquet on the 17th?

Kevin M · 2012-11-01, 04:41 PM

Nina and I should make it. We skipped last year and I would like to see people this year.

sperry · 2012-11-01, 07:58 PM

I'm out of town that weekend doing early thanksgiving.

MPREZIV · 2012-11-02, 07:07 AM

I'll be there for sure. No overlapping plans this year.

k-dogg39 · 2012-11-02, 07:17 AM

I will be there as well!

HA HA! Hate you! I guess I am lucky I got that since I barely made it to half of the events.

rory_a · 2012-11-29, 11:35 AM

Anyone know if the move to 180 treadwear minimum for Street Tire modifier is official for 2013?

Need to know if I can go to 225/45/15 RS3s for the new car, if I need to go with 195/50/15 Star Specs, etc.

Also, what happens when one places first loser, but didn't pick up their trophy?
