Default Reno Autocross Events 2&3

Anybody looking to make changes to there rides prior to events 2&3? How will the next events look without the Sac ringers? Can Dean make an impression on the SM class and will Mike get back on track and out of the van?

I plan on running fast. If the weather warms up, I'm going to be feelin good. No changes to the car, It's pretty much dialed in now.

I'm heading over to Dean's tomarrow to roll the fenders of the wagon in preparation for the 235s and I hope to get an elignment next week (depends on Cory's schedule). Anybody know of a good place to purchase some lead for my right foot?

I've now got an UP and DP on my car

Which means more learning curve for the event

Hey, has something official been said about the moving of SM to another run group? I think Scott, or somebody mentioned that after the first event.

Rumor has it SM is moving to Blue group, probably permanently, depending on the way the next event shakes down.

Well, considering those Green and Blue run in different halves of the day next event, that doesn't really work.

You can't move people between halves of the day without a whole lot of notice and on Sat. B and G run in different halves.

What's up with Mike's car? He got a FP Red right?

My car's setup nicely. I could replace the KYB AGX's with Koni's or some other more aggressive struts, but I'll wait until the AGX's die.

Nick, you getting Protuned?

True. Which is why we're going to look at the numbers at the next event and figure out if SM needs to be permanently moved, then send out said notice. At the school/R1 we were way lopsided, and moved ESP, but looking longer term it seems moving SM would be the better choice, partially because most the people in SM are all-day-ers.

But yes, I plan on getting a tune at some point. For the moment, I'm just running the Cobb Stage 2 map for my car.
