A spot after 20 mins should be OK. A spot after 5 mins would be a problem.


jilongie, be sure to keep checking that website, and in the meantime I'll see what I can do.

yeah, the white ones are Motegi MR-4's (the white ones were only produced for 1 year, and are VERY hard to find).....i still have them, and will possibly sell them if interested.......... 17x7 w/ a -40 offset, 205/45zr17s up front and 225/40zr17 in rear...... tires still have alot of meat on them....

and the black ones are Rota Torques 17x8 in gun-mettalic...... 215/45zr17's up front, and 245/45zr17's in the rear---not for sale

dammit! sorry buddy....this months meet was the only one to be changed to the first week of the month due to the holidays....... we had it last saturday!

next month our meet is going to be held at the california speedway for the solo autocrossing event.......your more than welcome to join us......the spots are full to drive in the event, but ride alongs are always welcome and its a very fun event..... its free to go, so no money out of your pocket, and you get to have a blast riding in very fast cars......

and if you really wanna come to a regular meet, february is going to be back to normal........ 2nd saturday of the month at the same place we always meet at, and we will be going on another canyon run (which is always a blast)

so, again, sorry.......but we hope to see you at the january solo event



note....only 5 cars from the meetup are actually in the solo event...the rest of us are just there for the fun...me included......so you defiently wont be the only one not driving!

Vipers, the 5 guarenteed spots are full, but he wis more then welcome to check the SOLO2 site and when registration opens, he is more then welcome to send his payment in and try to get in the "normal" way. if everyone does this, I am more then sure at least SOME of you are sure to get in.

Welcome A3n1ma, hope to meet you soon.

Akiratdk, I will try to PM you before a meet.






<b>as Vipers stated, Decembers meet was last week tdue to the holidays.
Jans meet will be at Fontana speedway for the SOLO2 auto cross event. everyone is welcome to check the SOLO2 web site and try to get in by sending in your check when registration opens. when I am trying to get in, I usually try to ceck the web site every morning to catch it AS SOON AS IT OPENS. if you see it open, send in your payment. if you do not make it in, or you do not want to run your car, please come on out and still meet up with everyone.

Febuarys meet will return to the normal Pirate City Tattoo parking lot at 9:00 a.m.</b>

Have you ever taken hard turn and felt like the rear end it going to kick out but it doesn't? Thats the rear steer kicking in, personally I don't like it as well as others, from what i hear it makes the car much more predictable in turns, etc etc. Why dont u hit up that autox man? I'm the only fc

$40? i think they were like 60, but can't remember. they're still in the package, though.

my reasoning for getting rid of the dts was to get rid of the over-under-oversteer. the *** in fc's just feels like jello when you flog them. the fd isn't much better, but i don't have my setup right yet.
