Aaron Posted December 23, 2015 Report Share Posted December 23, 2015 Just let me know where I can claim my trophy when the season is over. We don't have any with flat bills and a vape pen. :lolguy: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

POS VETT Posted December 25, 2015 Report Share Posted December 25, 2015 I propose we ban all open-cockpit cars at UFO autox due to the insurmountable inherent danger built into their design. I implore the Honourable Chancellors to consider this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I implore the Honourable Chancellors to consider this. An mgw shifter for the s550 would certainly make me realize how dangerous those vehicles really are. Currently I'm ok with them.

31rx7 Posted December 26, 2015 Report Share Posted December 26, 2015 I would like to get into autocross this year, but have no idea where to start. I went to the Tail of the Dragon 3 times this year and it was the most fun I've had in my car. And already have my first trip planned for next year in April. Is there a site where I can see requirements, like helmet, registration fees etc? There are various folks here on the forum that can help with the different clubs. I have been involved in SCCA autocross and road racing for 30+ years and happy to help with SCCA stuff. You can find out about events for the various clubs at their respective web sites. All clubs have their pro's and con's. If you are just starting, don't worry too much about rules, classing, and car prep. Just reach out to the respective club and let them know you are just starting and ask what you need to do. For SCCA: The Ohio Valley Region SCCA site is: http://www.ovr-scca.org The schedule link is in the upper right of the home page. Note the 2016 schedule is not out yet. The contact email for OVR SCCA is: ovrsolo@gmail.comTypically, OVR has a Driver's School early in the year. I highly recommend it as you get coaching and a lot of runs. There's a novice guide at: http://www.ovr-scca.org/_ovrclub/noviceguide/noviceguide.asp?hl=autocross.asp Feel free to reach out direct to me as needed. I have a red C5 Corvette my wife and I will be running. Hope to see you out there. Come up and introduce yourself. Rich Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
99StockGT Posted January 6, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 6, 2016 All new brake lines, new calipers, racing pads, slotted drilled rotors, and high temp fluids ordered for the Stealth to get it ready for road racing this spring! Bye bye money there are race car things to do! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turbospec29 Posted January 6, 2016 Report Share Posted January 6, 2016 Can motorcycles run in these autox events? nvm, google says no. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B3NN3TT Posted January 6, 2016 Report Share Posted January 6, 2016 They drove Doc's Slingshot once last year at UFO. Although that would not be legal in the SCCA - you have to have a 4-wheeled vehicle for that... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cordell Posted January 7, 2016 Report Share Posted January 7, 2016 They drove Doc's Slingshot once last year at UFO. Although that would not be legal in the SCCA - you have to have a 4-wheeled vehicle for that... Yes I did. It was actually interesting driving it in autocross, an Ariel Atom must feel similar. Being open and just about able to touch the cones and all. Obviously you can get away with a lot more stuff with the clubs then the SCCA, but my biggest like about the clubs is number of runs and lack of overly competitive people.

B3NN3TT Posted January 7, 2016 Report Share Posted January 7, 2016 SPEAKING OF CLUBS - the Miata club just released a bunch of dates for 2016 this week. I didn't look that closely, but they were all added as events on their Facebook page. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aaron Posted January 7, 2016 Report Share Posted January 7, 2016 UFO will have 5 events in 2016, and be the host club for a HPDE at Mid Ohio with NASA in April. More details when available. 1 of the events is a joint with Porsche club, at Circleville raceway park. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
99StockGT Posted January 7, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 7, 2016 Well if the UFO at Mid Ohio is open to all, you can likely count at least 4 of our Lucore crew in for it. Yay racing season not far away! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yay racing season not far away! We're just partnering with NASA. It's 100% a NASA event, open to all. More to come. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robochan Posted January 7, 2016 Report Share Posted January 7, 2016 We're just partnering with NASA. It's 100% a NASA event, open to all. More to come. Does that mean we all missed the early $350 price last night? Or is there a special ford club price? 8 sessions in 2 days? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
