I wont make this one. Sad

I'll be at the St. Pete Grand Prix. Smile


RE: CSCC Autocross 3/27/2010 - stroble - 03-03-2010 11:54 PM

I wish it was another weekend!


RE: CSCC Autocross 3/27/2010 - keegano - 03-04-2010 12:06 AM

we will have cones available for sponsoring at this upcoming event. anyone can sponsor a cone and put whatever they want on it, as long as it isn't too vulgar. sponsor one in memoriam for a past car, your favorite race driver, or just yourself. doesn't matter. all we ask is no "cuss words" or distasteful jokes.

stencils and paint will be available for you to use. you can do it yourself and see it day of, or leave it up to us to do. if you leave it to us, you may not see it until next semester depending on how busy we are.

Me too. Like the weekend before. ATL has a TnT that same day Sad I have to figure this out.

At Nationals in 2008 there was a cone that had Kenny on it...yes they killed Kenny Tongue

RE: CSCC Autocross 3/27/2010 - GTFan712 - 03-04-2010 09:31 AM

Woohoo! Clemson on the 27th, then ARSCCA on the 28th! I'm going to be dead Sunday night.

RE: CSCC Autocross 3/27/2010 - keegano - 03-04-2010 10:06 AM

^^totally worth it

to dave: how about e36 says yes? three weeks is plenty of time to completely rebuild a car, right?


RE: CSCC Autocross 3/27/2010 - zps2004 - 03-04-2010 10:27 AM

I'll be there, no surprise. Assuming I do well I should be doing well for winning the E class championship due to being at every event.

most likely will not be there, xterra club's going wheeling that day... i'll have to make the next one Smile


RE: CSCC Autocross 3/27/2010 - keegano - 03-04-2010 11:14 AM

make sure you post up the picks from the xterra club. i do love me some off-roading.

Even with you beating me I will still have a chance. It would just push everyone down 1 spot so between the rest of us there wouldn't be a change.


RE: CSCC Autocross 3/27/2010 - RHennin - 03-04-2010 11:45 AM

Side note, can someone take down the announcement for the last autox as it has replaced the motorsports festival spot on the front page?

I'll probably be there.


RE: CSCC Autocross 3/27/2010 - JB - 03-04-2010 11:54 AM

Posted up on Carolina Mazdas and Carolina Euros. I'm making this one, hopefully I can get something on my car beforehand to help that body roll a bit Big Grin.

I haven't even looked at the points or how you guys are doing it this year, but we all know that FWD > RWD Lol at least in E class.

CSCC events are fun, but I need to focus on getting seat time and dialing the car in more. I'll have to see what the weather is like. If it's raining I'll probably do the CSCC on the new full tread R1R's if not I might go to ATL and take the SoloPro school and see if Jinx can help me at all or just do the TnT.


RE: CSCC Autocross 3/27/2010 - zps2004 - 03-04-2010 03:53 PM

All I know is that the times I wasn't 1st it was someone who only came to 1 or 2 autocrosses. Like Rob Summers for example. Either way I just want to get seat time in the miata now that it handles more like it should.


RE: CSCC Autocross 3/27/2010 - kbrew8991 - 03-04-2010 04:46 PM

Zack, I'm depending on you to defend RWD honor here. Don't let me down thumbsup


RE: CSCC Autocross 3/27/2010 - CagleRacing - 03-04-2010 04:53 PM

Y'all did an awesome job at the last event; weather permitting, I'll be there!

RE: CSCC Autocross 3/27/2010 - zps2004 - 03-16-2010 06:31 AM

You're invited, lol


RE: CSCC Autocross 3/27/2010 - DNAgirl - 03-18-2010 06:29 AM

Everyone, I know it's Spring Break but tomorrow is the deadline to meet the minimum and right now we need 15 more people to sign up. If you were planning to attend, register today or tomorrow and get everyone you can to do the same.


RE: CSCC Autocross 3/27/2010 - boxer4charles - 03-18-2010 12:38 PM

Is there a way we can email past participants? Maybe some people arent aware there is another one coming up.


RE: CSCC Autocross 3/27/2010 - CagleRacing - 03-18-2010 09:33 PM

I posted details on the SCR-SCCA autocross forums. Hope it helps!

RE: CSCC Autocross 3/27/2010 - CU ZCar - 03-19-2010 10:07 AM

Yeah, it's still a maybe. 19 signed up so far, including officers.


RE: CSCC Autocross 3/27/2010 - Fasttoys - 03-19-2010 11:55 AM

Sorry all,
I'll not be making this one. Atlanta is having a test and tune on the same day with a points event on Sunday. It would be great if you guys would run on different dates.

RE: CSCC Autocross 3/27/2010 - mightyS - 03-19-2010 12:58 PM

I'll be there. I had the car worked on again to fix a boost leak. I only have 1 short tube from the intercooler to the throttle body. The stock one had streched and was leaking. Now the car is much better and I have low end torque again.


RE: CSCC Autocross 3/27/2010 - CagleRacing - 03-19-2010 09:51 PM

1 hour, 10 minutes to go and we need 5 more registrations. Considering how many showed up at the previous event, can we give it a few more days to pick up the final 5?


RE: CSCC Autocross 3/27/2010 - kbrew8991 - 03-19-2010 10:08 PM

have faith in the walk-up registration guys! Smile


RE: CSCC Autocross 3/27/2010 - boxer4charles - 03-19-2010 11:26 PM

Perry ('03 WRX) is planning on coming too, he just hasnt signed up.


RE: CSCC Autocross 3/27/2010 - dave99rt - 03-20-2010 01:17 AM

i'm around 80% sure i'm coming.

RE: CSCC Autocross 3/27/2010 - zps2004 - 03-20-2010 07:22 AM

Remember on the list I am double entering in CC1 and I know Ben my friend from work who had the MR-2 that broke last time is going to enter his IS300, he just hasn't signed up yet.


RE: CSCC Autocross 3/27/2010 - JB - 03-21-2010 09:00 AM

I am definitely coming, just cannot sign up today. My bank account was depleted over spring break and I have to go put more in before signing up...


RE: CSCC Autocross 3/27/2010 - keegano - 03-21-2010 09:41 AM

hey guys. we're still going to have the event even though we didn't hit 30 prereg. i know of at least 5 more people coming but they just couldn't register on-line. keep bugging your friends guys. i'd like to see a turnout as good as last time.


RE: CSCC Autocross 3/27/2010 - zps2004 - 03-21-2010 12:01 PM

IF we can get Satans Wankel together beforehand It MIGHT be showing up.


RE: CSCC Autocross 3/27/2010 - keegano - 03-21-2010 06:14 PM

^^^sounds dirty


RE: CSCC Autocross 3/27/2010 - zps2004 - 03-21-2010 08:02 PM

After the work we did tonight we should be able to make it out there to give the car a good beating before the 24 hour race at VIR.


RE: CSCC Autocross 3/27/2010 - HKYStormFront - 03-22-2010 10:44 AM

haha Vette was just giving me a handful of problems. Forgot i didnt even mention the last chapter...

Dealership decided to finger tighten the torque tube bolts to the bell housing. The drivetrain started bouncing around and the clutch decided to start engaging at random spots and not fully returning. A MESS

Got everything back together and sold it. Dealership said it was 100% but idk.

And the M3 is about 10x more fun to drive than the vette. ha

I havn't snapped any pics yet but here are some of the ones from the FS thread. Bought the car from Wes Bourne (hes the marketing director at Titan Motorsports). Just touring that shop was absolutely amazing. Couple 1000+hp supras, 3-4 600+hp 2JZ swapped SC300s, couple 700+hp Porsches... i could go on.

Car has headers and a tune, springs and some CF here and there. RASPY

RE: CSCC Autocross 3/27/2010 - zps2004 - 03-24-2010 07:50 AM

A friend of mine from work and his brother ae going to be coming to the event. Reuben and Byron Duren. They are signed up in Reuben's 2.5RS. They sent an email to clemsonsportscarclub email and he is awaiting a responce. He called me and it is basically about how he bought the car with mods and he doesn't know exactly what they are so someone is going to have to look at his car before the event to see what all is done to it. I am pretty familiar with the rules so I should be able to do this. I just want to make sure someone checks the email and someone responds to him.

Also between today and tomorrow I'll know if Satans Wankel should be there, but things should go well and we should be able to make it.

If he hasn't autocrossed much or at all, just put him in Novice. Then he can figure out what mods his car has in time for our fall schedule Smile


RE: CSCC Autocross 3/27/2010 - zps2004 - 03-24-2010 10:12 AM

He has done 5-6 before but not recently. I mean it would take me about 2 min to figure it out. I just don't want his email to go ignored.


RE: CSCC Autocross 3/27/2010 - boxer4charles - 03-24-2010 10:45 AM

I could probably figure out most of the mods on his car if you needed some help since I know what a lot of stock and aftermarket stuff looks like. He'd need to bring the sheet with all the points to add up though.

RE: CSCC Autocross 3/27/2010 - OneFastCaddy - 03-25-2010 10:23 AM

RE: CSCC Autocross 3/27/2010 - JB - 03-25-2010 12:54 PM

Registered! Not quite sure what took me so long...oh wait I forgot, laziness


RE: CSCC Autocross 3/27/2010 - zps2004 - 03-25-2010 11:31 PM

Satans Wankel should be good to make it. A good bit of work to do tomorrow but it should be good to go after that.

Don't want to jinx us, but if the weather ends up as planned the event could have a good number of walk-ups in the morning. Looking forward to a good time tomorrow.


RE: CSCC Autocross 3/27/2010 - zps2004 - 03-26-2010 01:12 PM

I just figured out what I am going to do for the course. I basically took the fun parts from past layouts and put them together.

Also can someone remember to buy 8 new AA batteries for the timing system.

RE: CSCC Autocross 3/27/2010 - jaydee - 03-26-2010 03:07 PM

In registering my son to race, I screwed up my registration and somehow got in the Novice class in his Acura. They may not like that.

If whoever is handling registration would move me to Class D, Group 3, I would appreciate it. 99 Miata, Number 68, Blue.
Thanks,
JD


RE: CSCC Autocross 3/27/2010 - RHennin - 03-26-2010 04:38 PM

Could someone bump forum posts on SCR, CCR, Soloatlanta, Highlands and any other southeast forums with lots of autoxers? I'm sure this could help.


RE: CSCC Autocross 3/27/2010 - Theodore - 03-26-2010 06:01 PM

Just registered...I am bringing Bandit to shake down the new engine. Don't expect too much. It's a hillclimb car, not an autocross car and I'll be taking it easy ! ( If I blew the new 6 port motor before our first hillclimb, I would be crying.)

I'm trying to stretch these tires through one more track event and then get some new shoes before Wolf Ridge in June.
See you tomorrow.


RE: CSCC Autocross 3/27/2010 - JB - 03-26-2010 06:01 PM

Woohoo, H&R's are installed! Now I just gotta figure out where that new clunking noise is coming from...

Tomorrow is going to be a blast!


RE: CSCC Autocross 3/27/2010 - Noeladams - 03-26-2010 08:41 PM

I need to geta few others things in the car done before I feel ready to play & I have some other stuff going on tomorrow....

When does the next season start? My brother has been talking and I have gotten him to want to start also Smile

RE: CSCC Autocross 3/27/2010 - dave99rt - 03-27-2010 12:04 AM

have the officers considered having summer event(s)?

i'm sure if you picked a weekend in the middle of the summer with massive notice, you could probably achieve a nice turnout.

just find a weekend where CCR, SCR, and ATL aren't having an event.

56 people pre-reg'd for tomorrow, very nice.


RE: CSCC Autocross 3/27/2010 - HKYStormFront - 03-27-2010 12:12 AM

I just got home from working on the racecar. Everything is done but it runs like crap. They are going to tune it in the morning and then hopefully be able to make it later in the day.

Once again, great job CSCC! I enjoyed running the timing equipment during much of the first group. It gave me some insight as to how stressful being in aircraft control must be. Great help from Keri and Steve during my shift at the PC.

So, when is the next autocross?

possibly during the summer. it will depend on who is in clemson that can help out. if not, then next semester.

I'll be around and more than happy to help with a summer AX.

I'll be around Clemson all summer. I won't be able to help much in August... I'm taking my qualifying exams that month.
