Go Hard....or Go Home
On Sept 18 at the big track 4 out of the 22 cars in GT4 - GT6 were driven to and from the track, 2 of them from Quebec! I do understand the fun of time attack however some of the costs of time attack are approaching regional racing.

SRTA would like to sincerely thank everyone from the rx7club for a truly amazing 2011 season. We've never had a larger support than the members here. I grew up here, and it's just so cool to see so many RX-7's come out to some real weekend racing. I love seeing the 7's and 8's always being the largest pack (other than Civics I guess). You guys totally rock! Really!
The results will be up shortly. Stay tuned, it's going be a good one.
Talk to you soon! Back to number crunching!

Is SRTA going to run any other tracks or the perimeter of the DDT next year? We would consider bringing the race car out if they would run the outside or at Shannonville etc.

2011 Season End Official Results are up!!!
What a dramatic ending!!!
If only Jimmy's car didn't break down... sigh....
****
Now that our season has ended, the team will begin our discussions and planning for the next season. With the turnouts we have this year, you can probably count on us expanding onto other tracks. We'll keep you all posted.
Congratulations rx7club!!!
Cheers!

love the braaaap
Watched the vids, never wanted to join this more than now. If I can manage to get a good tow vehicle and car trailer for next year, I would probably get out in my 79 in this. I know it won't be too competitive in stock form, but I'm just out to have fun anyway. I'm just too far away to drive the car too and from the track I think. If I break anything, that would be a very expensive tow bill to get home lol.

Are you talking about the solo1 now time attack series or this venue.....? For me its cheaper to participate in the sigma then the solo1/time attack but have been considering the solo1/time attack because of the different tracks. I did one event this year with the solo1/time attack and there was plenty of track time in comparison to the 2006 events I went to...

2012 project.... Who did what to prepare
So in anticipation of joining another year of Time Attack I have done the following:
-redline rear end oil change
-redline transmission oil change
-new rear rotors
-new EBC yellows around (Probable not the right choice)
-new arp extended studs all 4 wheels (EXPENSIVE!)
-one new bearing
-new sparco steering wheel
-new sparco pro2000 (And I can't fit in it with my helmet. May not install this without modification)
Whats left
-maybe new rear wing if I can manage to swing by and see a local used one
-race tires to be purchased
-ran stock boost last year as my electronic boost controller went. May just get manual....
So who else is sick in the head and spending to much time and money into a hobbie
Might just have to start a new 2012 Time Attack thread once sigma announces dates and hopefully tracks....

STUCK. I got SNOWNED!!!!!

I have a set of ARP corvette wheel studs here that I'll never end up using on my FC. You should have said something! :P
In addition to what I was already going to do to my GTR I'm getting:
swaybars + full bushing kit (for what bushings are left that aren't already heim joints)
17x10 Cobra wheels
275/40/17 Hoosier A6 - Are these the right choice? I found a deal on some but I'm starting to wonder if they're a suitable lapping tire
Some sort of racing pads (I have hawk HP+ already but I think I want blues)
N1 water pump to make sure it stays happy at high RPM
Maybe some sort of harness bar to keep my back alive lapping.

Buggy (among some of the other guys from last year) may join in a few Time Attacks this year. Will be nice to see that GTR in action. Last time was 2009 DGRR?
I was thinking about Hoosiers, Hankooks or BFG's. Will see whatever is locally available....
