If you've ever wanted to drive your car on a real race track but didn't want to shell out over $100 for a single day, here's your chance!

http://www.dezodwest.com/dds.htm

I'll be helping the guy run this event. It will be an extremely low traffic event. The max cars on track at the same time will be around 10 total cars on a 1.1 mile course. For the Time Attack portion it will only be 3-4 cars at the same time.

There will most likely be two 10-20 min practice sessions and then 2 timed laps which will be the "Time Attack".

This event is not intended to be an HPDE1 event but Novices are okay due to the format. If you want to start tracking your car I highly recommend NASA's HPDE1 program and move up through the ranks, but this is certainly a one time event where you can "try it out" for very little cash.

Tage-
Are they going to have separate practice sessions for the street, mild, wild, unlimited guys or is everyone running in the same practice session(s)? Its unclear from his schedule. If they max out the entries (at 50 drivers), and are not planning on having separate practice sessions, how are they going to limit the number of drivers out on track to ~10?

EDIT: n/m the above. I just saw your post on the AX forum. question answered.

- Format of the event will likely be something along the lines of:
o Classroom session
o Parade laps
o Practice #1 (5 groups of 10 cars)
o Practice #2 (5 groups of 10 cars)
o Time Attack (1 warm up, 2 timed laps, 1 cool down / only 3-4 cars on track at the same time)

I am trying to limit my track time to minimal to preserve the motor. Not sure which weekend in May i will be installing the new motor.. might be that one since the one before were supposed to be helping Dan at the Enduro at the night event.

Still might make this, not sure......

I am more than happy to help you (or any of the other "new" guys out there) with the basics so longs at there is adaquate spacing between my run group and yours.

i.e. If you're in rung group 3 and I'm 4. Then it will be too tight.
If you're in 1 or 2 and I'm in 4 or 5 then that would work.


FIR West is a fuuuun track for Hondas.

I have a helmet I can "rent" you. Unfortunately this group doesn't have loaner helmets.
$100 deposit for the helmet, you get $80 back at the end of the event.

I think the track portion is only $70 bucks.

Joser! You've been contemplating too long. The price used to be $70 and I believe it's up to $90 and will increase even more if you continue to wait.

I'll be running FWD Unlimited. The NAWS is too much fun to not hit it. Plus I'm hearing there will be a 750HP+ Viper there that I want to go heads up against.

With your current ride height (on the 13's), I think you'll rip a splitter off the car. Regardless, a splitter will certainly NOT hurt your times. I'd say it could only help.

There's actually going to be a bunch of people between this board, CRA/NASA, and SCCA Solo folks. My guess is around 20+ (<-- which will be nearly half the entrants) and the rest will be Dezodwest people/cars we've never seen before.

Folks that I know:

- Joser (FWD Mild)
- Gabe (FWD Wild)
- Phil (FWD Wild)
- Eric (FWD Stock)
- Brady (ITR - FWD stock or maybe FWD mild)
- Manfred (local autoxer with a Celica - FWD Stock)
- Justin (local autoxer with a 750+ HP Viper)
- Brian (local autoxer - Camaro Race car in Unlimited)
- Doug (Elise - RWD Mild)
- Jeremy (240SX? - RWD Mild)
- Paul B (local racer - FWD Wild)
- Me (Unlimited)
- Several local autoxer Mini's (I can't remember all their names at the moment)
- A few local autoxer Mazda's (I can't remember all their names at the moment)

What do you run on West??

Yeah, any Honda with relatively low power should be running 13's IMO. The tires are cheap, the gearing is better (usually) and the lower center of gravity certainly doesn't hurt.

My shock valving, alignment settings, tires, wheels, power levels, aero and a host of other things have changed since the last time I ran FIR West so simply a *guess* for lap times will be 1:01 - 1:04. A 59.999 would be cool as all hell but I think that would be highly unlikely. I can dream though...

05-30-2008, 09:16 AM
Yeah we can make my trailer the hang out spot. Yes the K-swap drained my funds for the most part (so no generator and AC... yet). However, I do plan on bringing my portable swamp cooler which should keep us nice and cool. We can fill the cooler with buckets as there is water near by. There's also an electrical outlet. I've got a play station if someone wants to bring a TV. I typically have just played the video games in the truck but someone stole the headrest TV's a few weeks ago. Doh!

I will be pitted in the far SW corner of the lot. I will reserve via cones a few spots for you (Joser), Phil and one or two more (most of the people I know will be getting there early to help with setup anyway).

Great event....

I wish I woulda felt better though...came home and slept for like 15hrs...plus my knee..

Heat killed me...3rd place @ 1:14.1 huh...i'm happy with that.....on street tires I had 1:14.7....

Considering I was on used R's and miss shifted (DOH!) both my timed laps, i'm happy, I could been in the 1:13.xx's.....grrr...

I was more worried bout Brady..forgot bout Durkee!!

Durkee you da mann bro!! Holding it down with the SOHC!! Too bad I missed that ride along...damn chick on the phone for tow was slow...next time, I'd love for you to drive my car and teach me a few things.....

That link in my sig should have some up soon I hope...

I know them guys personally, and I could ask them to post up every honda out there if you guys want....plus the focus.....the thing is they make money off people buying prints/frames etc etc.....I'm going to select a shot here soon for the garage wall....

Durka has some good shots of me, but brian@velocity gets places and gets kick ass action shots...

You guys should give them a try, not that pricey either....tell them Joser sent ya...

Phil's driving definitely impressed me. So did Nolan in the ITR since he was pretty new I believe. Kenton did an amazing drive with the SOHC! West is definitely a momentum track though. It definitely does NOT favor/bias cars with lots of power unlike PIR and FIR Main.

I wish my car was running right so I could have seen what it really was capable of. :-(
