    Got my HANS recertified

    Just an FYI to let you all know my experiences with it, since there's been so much concern. I bought an old used HANS, '03 vintage (so carbon fiber), in good shape. Upgraded it with new sliding tethers when I bought it. Since it's so old, no FIA or SFI sticker - predates the specs. Because it...

    What's going on with IT and the CRB?

    So, the CRB was supposed to post something last week, to the SCCA forums, about the ongoing issues with the ITAC, the members who've left, the future of IT, any or all of the above... Did I miss it? 'Cause I haven't seen anything yet. Maybe the outpouring of letter has overwhelmed them, and...

    locking CV bolts

    I always just safety-wired mine, but now we're getting some made with nice locking tabs. Since they're shared with just about all CV-equipped Porschii, it seems... http://www.924board.org/viewtopic.php?t=31335&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=0 I'd be happy to coordinate entry in the group buy...

    locking CV bolts - any interest?

    I'm pretty sure that at least the early cars use the same CV joint as our Porschii? We tend to have a real PITA on both the street and race cars with bolts backing out, particularly if you get CV grease on the bolts while installing. I finally said F it, and safety-wire 'em all... but now one of...

    More video - knuckle-biter ITB podium finish

    Long overdue, I've been lazy and playing with formula cars... anyway finally cracked out and uploaded the video of the 4 final laps of the '08 ARRC ITB race, with me duking it out with Aaron Stehly for the last two steps on the podium...

    Trying to find all the ADVANCED race instruction

    Having limited success here... not looking for the basic comp license and extra lapping day type scenarios, but the more advanced stuff (like show up with your own car, get some expert, tailored instruction)... So far I've found that the Mid-O school does seem to offer that... Bondurant, Bertil...

    announcing recording??

    Hey, Butch - there was mention at the driver's meeting that there was going to be an attempt, at least, to record the announcing... did that happen? Would be interested to hear what all was happening... maybe downloadable off the website?

    Video thread

    Since we've got a picture thread, might as well start a video thread! ;) My first contribution, the one you all wanna see - things going all pear-shaped on lap 4 in Turn 7... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ylBvNdsHksc Oh, yeah - according to my data, I was going about 45mph when Sam hit me -...

    Irony

    It's ironic, last year we were organizing to go to the ARRC and they were having a major drought in the Atlanta region... This year, it's all about the gas supply... What's next, for the 2009 ARRC - air for tires?!?!? :rolleyes:

    What's left in the season - MW or SE?

    Seems now that my teammate and crew are all burnin' to get some enduro time in, before the end of the season if they can swing it. What's left as options? What I know of: Last Chance at the Glen - complaints are that it's too far of a tow for such a short enduro (3 hrs right?) Charge of the...

    Help needed... I'm trying to get my power steering working so I can get to the 'Fest on time... things aren't going well, after replacing the pump I can't seem to get the dayum thing to bleed... now instead of an ugly leak, I've got nearly no power steering!?! Anything I'm missing???
