Doing the Spring Break Out HPDE and Time Trials. Doing the morning HDPE session.

[josh18_2k]

any idea if you can take passengers in that? I really wanna ride along...
I plan on doing the autox's those days.

Josh! Adam!

No passengers during PCA HPDE's, though you can ride with Instructors in their cars. I'm planning on doing the HPDE on Saturday in the RX-7 and the Autocross on Sunday. New exhaust goes in next week.

Josh did you get the email from ORPCA about the Autocross "Season Pass"? I'll be signing up for that as well.

[josh18_2k]

i dunno what im gonna do yet. i dont like signing up and paying for things while my car is in pieces... but when i get done, and if everything seems nice, i'll prolly sign up for the instructor one. cuz im a noob
and yah im getting the season pass fo sho

[P71]

Doing the T56? Anything else?

[josh18_2k]

guess i shall make a list :)
SixSpeedInc Stage 4 T56 w/ 600 miles on it (carbon synchros, viper internals, etc)
power steering
no more OEM bushings anywhere. half solid, half poly or mazdacomp
adj sway endlinks
stiffer springs (8k/6k)
racetech RT-1000 seat, possibly getting a harness bar made. i doubt stock seatbelts will hold me well in there.
corksport 30mm fenders- they fit 285s up front!! (test fitted jared's wheel with some spacers)
when i save enough money- 285/305 V710's on 9.5/10.5 RPF1's. cuz i wanna be like jared lol
shine bumper and RE skirts, if i actually get around to mounting them.

i think more power can wait till next winter.

Damn that's a hell of a list. The only thing I've actually finished is the bodywork on the new door. I do have a pile of parts waiting to go on (RB header with collector, fully-welded race resonator mid, fully welded race muffler, dual SS tip for the bling, Summit 14" electric fan, NHRA coolant overflow bucket, triple gauges - water temp, oil pres, amps). I'll probably have the car in primer by the first autocross but I'm waiting for warmer weather to paint (I'm doing it myself, you next?).

I signed up for the Spring Breakout tonight, doing the Sat afternoon autox, the Sunday morning skills clinic, and the Sun afternoon autox. The only Novice HPDE available is Sunday and you can't do it and the autocroses. I'll probably skip the June autox to do the double HPDE at the new Oregon Raceway Park in June.

In the meantime, I'm helping some family move on Saturday (the 17th) so I'll be in Portland Saturday night with Audra if you want to do anything.
