NASA/CRA - Aug Morning Event/Test & Tune!!

[SlowCivicHmm]

Since no one has done it....and Ramen hasn't checked in I'll bring it up.....

Who's in??

This is for the usuals of course......anyone rocking anything new? testing out anything?? driving diff car?? just test/tune......new parts?? diff tires? Any tips??

As for myself I won't be driving again...just tech/hanging/ride alongs.....bringing my chair and ice chest....anyone want to organize breakfast? or lunch afterwards??


NOTE: If you are interested in joining us (NASA), go to prior posts to see the same shit over and over and over....its easy to get into tracking.... vist:

www.clubracingaz.com


Please stay on topic.....

[Tage]

As always my trailer is available to hang out in. Maybe I'll even bring my swap cooler.

I can bring my little camping stove if others want to coordinate dogs/burgers or whatever.

My car has revised gearing and is actually running correct as I believe I have all the gremlins worked out now. I should be able to dip down into some much better times than I did at the DeZod West TA...

[ILIKETODRIVE]

I gotta re-up my membership and sign up for this but I'm in for sure. FIR West FTW!

PS - you better bring that grill Tage, seeing as how I put it together. :-p

[ILIKETODRIVE]

Signing up right meow.

Simon I call dibs on a session with you if thats cool??

Word.

[Phantomeg]

I'll be there boy's!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[fmx_dbc]

I hope to attend

[Vtecracer]

I will be there....hoping to snag ride alongs...If old man Phil will let me ride again? My car......well it won't be ready in time... although it is progressing nicely.

[topramn]

the event is on no matter what happens with attendance..

[soooofit]

does any1 know where I can get my coilovers weighted and balanced along with a good alignment?

[topramn]

does any1 know where I can get my coilovers weighted and balanced along with a good alignment?

this is not required to drive on track..

[soooofit]

this is not required to drive on track..

I know this, but it would be nice

[SlowCivicHmm]

does any1 know where I can get my coilovers weighted and balanced along with a good alignment?

i've have yet to find a shop that has scales for customer use and actually advertises corner balancing as a product.......i'm sure they are out there though

even the known alignment shops like "network" don't offer this service......

corner balancing is not that important...and I'd only do it if that was the last thing to do to the car as far as suspension tunning goes...


Alignment is key......i always recommend "Jack's Alignment" on Thomas and like 36th st I think...or 28th street....I always forget...

They do a good old pit style alignment, used them for years...no computers to calibrate or racks to scrape on.....if your are 1/4 off the ground I bet they can still align you......my car has no problems...and they appreciate adjustment peices and mods.....they do anything YOU want.....depending on street/race or just full race.......hit them up...

[SlowCivicHmm]

this is not required to drive on track..

he didn't say it was for track....figured we'd know since we track que no??

[SlowCivicHmm]

Signing up right meow.



Word.

sahweeet!!

[SlowCivicHmm]

the event is on no matter what happens with attendance..

good to know....during the last drivers meet it was said diferently...mah bad!

[ILIKETODRIVE]

good to know....during the last drivers meet it was said diferently...mah bad!

It was but Boles and Marty probably said fuck it and just run it no matter what.

I agree. FIR West FTW.

[topramn]

sometimes he talks without thinking.. me and him discussed it differently that morning on the way to the event..

It was but Boles and Marty probably said fuck it and just run it no matter what.

I agree. FIR West FTW.

i told him he couldnt let down the drift guys again.. and thats why the event stays..

[JoshDC2]

i'm not sure if i'm going to be a corner worker and get track time for this one or if i'm just going to do de1 again...
but i'm leaning towards working...

[topramn]

why do DE1 again? you passed the first time didnt you?

[JoshDC2]

no my instructer was very inpressed with how much i progresses but he wants me to do de1 again on a different track.
i couldnt have to do the classroom again but i'd still run with de1.
i agreed because i only had hardly and hour on track. i had so much fun though

[ILIKETODRIVE]

Do this event, then corner work at PIR and snag a few ride alongs. Then, do PIR with DE2 and take Gabe out with you.

"TRACK OUT! TRACK OOOUUUTTT!!!!1"

[BlueTeg]

I will be there.
Nothing new for the beater. It doesn't really need anything. Even if it did, its too fucking hot for me to get excited about working on the car. :devil:

You should be good to go for DE2. Ask for Mervin or myself (Gabe) or Chris Soehren (younger guy in his 20's looks like Mr. Clean) for a check ride in the first session.


Also, for you street tire whores out there that want a sample of the R-compound crack....I have my 13" x 8" vato wheels (see my sig) on Kumho 710's available for daily rental. Better gearing, wider tire, and stickier rubber. $35 and you can run them all morning long.

In my log book where it says permission to go to DE2 he checked the NO box.
So i'll be in DE1, at least for the first bit.
However i'd like to sign up for DE2 because its 30 dollars cheaper the DE1...
I'm guessing because of the classroom which i won't be attending anyways.

That is a deal and a half. Someone take him up on this offer!

who was your instructor? actually, do yourself a favor, sign up for DE2.. then find gabe or mervin.. both are certified instructors.. let them ride with you for at least one session in DE2 and have them give your opinion.. if you are ready for DE2, they will prolly work with you some more through the short day and bring you up to speed.. if your not ready, they will get you back in DE1.. simple as that.. when it comes to who gets on track in what groups, i almost always have final decision..

[SlowCivicHmm]

so its too hot to work on the car and funds aren't there to do it the right way..

I have a new pass axle to install, but my ball joints are mushroom'd on there....lol, need new lower ball joints and upper...might aswell get a upper camber kit since I'm at my max of -1.5 camber front....SKUNK2 here to come.......

So by september I'll be back....new camberkit/balljoints/axles/raised a bit/balanced out/aligned/hawk blues and hopefully proper tires.....or I might just do azenis till Jan09.....no reason to get R's just yet....but gawd the are fun!! especially on those 13's...

I ended getting the Team Dynamics 15x7 +38. I haven't decided on the tire yet, as I hope to have that figured out in the next week.

[EG6-DC2]

oh snaps.......the 4door rocks parker or not...


Yes, the 4dr will be there again! I'm planning to have her at every event for the rest of the year. Might even try some of PASA stuff. The more track time, the better!

NIIICE let me know.....I can vouch for you in PASA and avoid their schoool...

[iApex]

What time does a morning event end? I have been wanting to get out on the track for the past 2 or 3 events but keep convincing myself of reasons not to go (Gay i know) . The reason i would like to know when it ends is because the car i would track is also my DD, and i am kinda concerned of the abuse the heat is going to put on my car. THX

[JoshDC2]

event ends at 1030am
and if its the same as july then you will have a total of an hour on track

[EG6-DC2]

NIIICE let me know.....I can vouch for you in PASA and avoid their schoool...


Sweet! Now I just need to find out when they start back up!

[Phantomeg]

Yes, the 4dr will be there again! I'm planning to have her at every event for the rest of the year. Might even try some of PASA stuff. The more track time, the better!

Let's do it...I'm in for all of the events!!!!!!!!!

NIIICE let me know.....I can vouch for you in PASA and avoid their schoool...

Hook it up Joser...When is the next PASA event?

[SlowCivicHmm]

Last weekend of september is PASA's 1st event for the fall season.....I was supposed to make it to new mexico this august but can't due to funds...

[ILIKETODRIVE]

x3 on PASA for me Joser.

:crazy: :crazy: :crazy:

PS - I got some 225/45's as well you old fart. ;)

[SlowCivicHmm]

oh oh I can see this being a bad thing.....depending on how you look at it...

PM me or IM me for more PASA info....don't want to clutter the NASA thread...gotta keep it professional...

Temps won't be any worse than normal 'day' temps during September or early October since it doesn't head up till after 10:00.

[iApex]

Ya thats true... i was looking on the clubracingaz site and was a little confused, so its $44 dollars to become a nasa member and then $130 to run the hpde1 event?

yes that sounds bout right for this event....

your license is good for 1 year from purchase I believe...

[ILIKETODRIVE]

x2 and x2

[iApex]

Well i spent some money i really wish i didnt spend and the event is in 2 weeks so i dont know if i will have the funds. If the license is good for one year do you think it would be a better idea to wait till next season so its good for the whole year? or are the last couple events worth attending?

No no no, it's good for 12 months from the day you purchase it.

I bought my first membership July 27th 2007 and it's good until July 27th 2008. I just renewed my membership last week and the new membership is good until July 27th 2009.

DE is all about "practice" not the car....get seat time....every event is beneficial...so the more you attend the more you drive, the better you'll prepare yourself for TT or Race group if you decide to go that route.......

I've done 17 Track days since Dec 07 to current.....plus like 8 days back in 04/05...i'm still in DE2 cuz I place myself there.....no need to rush things....try to get out there the sooner the better...

My 2 cents..

dude simon...if you remember bring that header to the event...I wanna try it out and see the difference in september @ pir...I hope to have a dump tube by then...

[iApex]

Ya thx for all the info you make a valid point. this is will only be my second event and the first one was for a club my fathers in so no log book. It was a two day event at Spring Mountain which was alot of fun and got me hooked. here is the video im in the red GSR bringing up the back haha.

[Tage]

Joser, you run in DE2 because your car is SLOW! If you had a B or K swap you'd be a solid DE3 driver. ;)

Most of the time the car is faster than the driver but I'm pretty sure you're one of the few examples where the car is (mostly) holding you back.

You said it Tage...K swap...I refuse to go B....jajjajaa, but thx for the compliment....from you it reassures me I'm doing something right...

Plus its my daily...my track car turned back to daily 2 years ago.....my DX tranny don't help at all either....if I had an EX in I'd bump up to DE3 no problem I'd think.......this september..

YOU DO NOT NEED A SWAP TO TRACK....lol

[iApex]

^
i know its me holding my car back... im sure its alot faster then i can drive it at this point.

[PhoenixB16]

Date?????????????????????I asked aboput working the event,we shall see if that happens.

[topramn]

august 16.. i dont know why you even stopped working..

[Tage]

General Statement: The driver can always be improved and the car will always be faster than the driver. However, it is far easier to just "buy" speed.

Is it August 16th yet? :)

I'm looking forward to my favorite "local" track...

[SlowCivicHmm]

Tage I want a ride in your car....lol......

I agree.....he needs the 2 cam conversion!

[Tage]

Tage I want a ride in your car....lol......

I actually don't mind providing ride alongs. I just lack a passenger seat. If you supply a passenger seat and the stock belts and install them, my car is up for grabs as far as ride alongs go. Before everyone jumps on me though I do want the first session or two without a passenger to go for a good lap time 1st.

[BTLD_LS1]

I might be down for this, I just picked up a 93 formula that needs to get abused!
It will be parted for the shell soon :devil:

hmmm I don't have stock seat belts....and always willing to throw my pass seat in your ride for me or anyone else.....

I do have a spare 5 point though...we'll talk tage.....

YOU DO NOT NEED A SWAP TO TRACK....lol

Just curious Joser...What is it with you and B series motors ..Is it because they have KICKED YOUR ASS SO MANY TIMES!!! If your can't afford a B you sure can't afford a K!!!

I do agree with you on the swaps... I'd never swap to a D series in my car either...:argue:

[SlowCivicHmm]

everyone always thinks I already have a b16....lol

nah...if I go B there is no going back.....and I keep noticing B's are the one's breaking on track...not D's...lol, so for now I keep D, it blows I spend 250-500 and done.....back on track...once I get me another daily (blazer got repo'd/4dr is wrecked) i'll K the hatch, and have it be track only.......makes more since to me that way.....

can you imagine my car K'd and caged and being daily...yeah NO!!

Plus a thief don't want a D....lol

you weren't there last year when all the D series failed @ the night event...thats why all the HC cars went B...........

mine seems to be holding up just fine...even with 162k

[SlowCivicHmm]

mines lasted all season?? lol......you can't drive them like B's...jaja

yeah my D has like over 200k...lol, my ZC had like 300k when I pulled it....MUAHAHAHA

I worry that my car will get stolen as is...with a B i'd die if it ended up MIA......

[JoshDC2]

My POS 4 door Dseries automatic was stolen, not once, but TWICE out of my driveway!

B16's are dirt cheap IMO. Just go with a B16 at a fraction of the cost of a K. If it blows up, they can be had all day long for around $600 give or take a couple bills. Additionally, you don't see SOHC VTEC's selling for cheap these days anymore either. If you keep them stock the Bs are just as reliable if not more than the Ds under racing conditions HPDE stuff isn't hard enough on the engines to really test out the true reliability IMO. For me a stock K is ceaper tp replace vs a fully built B (which I've done 3x now!). The problem is the initial cost of the K swap is out of control! You need to be a baller or have sponsors to do a K swap. ;)

[PhoenixB16]

august 16.. i dont know why you even stopped working..

Um child support,not having a car that was registered,a job that didnt allow me to get there the days i needed to be. take your pic.....Being to broke to even put the car on track sucked the fun out of it.I know everyone thinks those are excuses,but the last thing i needed was to get pulled over on the way there with an unregistered car.Or break something and NOT be able to afford to fix it....Sometimes we have to give up something we love for a while in order to try to get our lives in order.trust me,if i could be there teching i would,after doing it for FOUR years id like to think id at least have a chance to get involved again...but thats to the higher powers of CRA,not me.

[PhoenixB16]

I see where Joser is coming from,and im one of his biggest critics( have been for years) you can get a D for almost FREEEE! Thats hard to beat. A WHOOPED b16 is still going to cost 1.5k and up.................He can blow those things up alllll damn day,and just get another for a couple hundred bucks......I wish i was in that boat right about now,since my odometer is at a sweet ass 113k.

[PhoenixB16]

All that siad i still can not kill this b16,and i have tried. Mr Ward and i had epic battles of high ass milage b series wonder motors,and for the most part both survived........( im stockish form,at least)

[BlueTeg]

and I keep noticing B's are the one's breaking on track...not D's...lol,

Plus a thief don't want a D....lol

My (stock) B18 has been kicking strong for 2 1/2 years now (15-20 track days per year). I have missed 2 events due to mechanical failure. One from a pooped out distributor and one from a leaky injector seal. They break because people don't maintain them properly (read: take the cheap way out with parts) or drive them past the redline they were designed for.

Tell my brother that.....he just had his car stolen. Stock SOHC engine. :ballin:

Last I saw on Hmotors a full swap (which I'd need) is like over 1.5k....hydro tranny...

$600 for the motor alone. If you blow your motor, you don't need to replace the shift linkage, ECU, tranny, etc. Yes there's an initial investment but if you think $1500 is a lot to spend on a swap, you're lying to yourself if you think you'll go K series someday...

K series prices:

Motor - $1500-2500
Tranny - $500-1500
ECU - $200-300
KPro & tuning - $1500
Mounts, wiring, axles, shift cables, shifter box, fuel system lines/regulator - $1200-1700
Honda wideband O2 (<-- required) - $300-400
Header & modify exhaust - $500-1000

$600 for the motor alone. If you blow your motor, you don't need to replace the shift linkage, ECU, tranny, etc. Yes there's an initial investment but if you think $1500 is a lot to spend on a swap, you're lying to yourself if you think you'll go K series someday...

K series prices:

Motor - $1500-2500
Tranny - $500-1500
ECU - $200-300
KPro & tuning - $1500
Mounts, wiring, axles, shift cables, shifter box, fuel system lines/regulator - $1200-1700
Honda wideband O2 (<-- required) - $300-400
Header & modify exhaust - $500-1000
Probably a bunch of other stuff I forgot to list but will add up...

Um child support,not having a car that was registered,a job that didnt allow me to get there the days i needed to be. take your pic.....Being to broke to even put the car on track sucked the fun out of it.I know everyone thinks those are excuses,but the last thing i needed was to get pulled over on the way there with an unregistered car.Or break something and NOT be able to afford to fix it....Sometimes we have to give up something we love for a while in order to try to get our lives in order.trust me,if i could be there teching i would,after doing it for FOUR years id like to think id at least have a chance to get involved again...but thats to the higher powers of CRA,not me.

Those are all good reasons. I always wondered what happened.

Show up on the 16th @ 4.30 am

If you don't have a tech shirt come by and see me before hand I'll give you 2......

after 10am, you can wear anything you want.

fyi, if you guys havent seen already, jason will not be at the august event and marty is highly doubtful as well. event director scott rutledge, worker cheif kyle gianuzzi, and myself (control) will be handling all of their functions during their absence.

[iApex]

Will this be a kinda small event compared to the others? Would it be good for someones first time? i only ask because i will be out there alone and dont want to be overwhelmed.

If i can make it. i thought it was the 8th but found out its the 16th so i might have the funds.

Just come out bro if possible.......lots of peeps willing to help and point you in the right direction....all the honduh guys (DE) roll together and we all make sure we on track when needed and got each others backs for ride alongs and just hanging and tips and incase of mechanical failure hands and ideas all over the place to get you fixed back on track or home safely....

Yes.
I don't think any event is overwhelming for a first timer.

[BTLD_LS1]

It looks like I finally got my 94 sold, so I should have funds for this event. As a first timer at one of these events will I have to take some sort of driving class prior to participating? Or just come Saturady morning pay my monies and run?

[SlowCivicHmm]

sign up for HPDE1 that comes with an instructor for the day...you'll be filled in at the driver meet bout the days details...

[BTLD_LS1]

do they check driving credentials?

[PhoenixB16]

Fo sho! :thumbup:

Sweet,Im from that shithole Rockford,right to the west. What a dump. . .Anyhow,going to get my NASA membership up to spec,throw axles and brakes on the car,and get ready to fail some fools at tech. . And then knock the rust off,and have some fun....I dont think i have EVER run the west track....... I am more excited than any of you even comprehend.. And LS1 dude,no creds needed,but you WILLLL have to run DE1 with an instructor untill you are passed off to run in DE 2( normally an event or two,depending how badly you scare the instructor).

do they check driving credentials?

For clarification, do you mean like a valid "drivers license"? To be honest I'm not sure if that is a requirement or not. For autox events I know that you must have one (i.e. can't participate if your license is suspended). I'll have to let Noddles or whoever is handling registration answer that general question...

Sorry guys car is still not running... maybe the september event for me... I hope :crossesfingers: the car is done by then.


Oh and a word to the LS1 guy..... sign up online it will save you some monies... always better to register BEFORE the event. Event pricing goes up and the hpde1 group could be too full and you wont get in.

[ILIKETODRIVE]

LOL, I guess that was a bit too much for the NASA crowd.

:thumbup:

[SlowCivicHmm]

Rhett noooood whenever he gets the opt....lol

What credentials? Its your first time with the club, so you have none.

He bought it back in May.

Brady got you old AARR right?? what color is the new one??

[ILIKETODRIVE]

I don't think Brady got his old one...maybe he did but I thought some d00d in Cali came down and bought it.

New one is NBP.

PS - I'll bring that header with me to the event guey! Did you get my PM about the cam?

[Phantomeg]

To the R crew...You know who you are...

We need to start planning the shelter food and drinks for the August event...Should we grill, bring food or everyone for themselves...

I vote grill!!!

[BlueTeg]

Felip-
The event is over at 10:00. What did you have in mind for grilling?

BBQ Brunch? orly?

[EG6-DC2]

I vote grill!!!

You know I have part of the shelter.

I'm not sure we will have enough time to grill. Like last month, I'm sure it will be fast paced with little down time. I say we go and eat together and BS somewhere after!

[SlowCivicHmm]

Grilling sounds fine but I'd assume we'd want AC and refreshments...

I say we all bring our own hydration and kick back at the usual spot (next to tage) and hit up an early lunch right after the event....

I'll throw the mini grill in the trailer just in case. If I can borrow my father-in-laws generator, I'll bring my swap cooler too...

Last time we got kicked off the property. Being that this event will fly just like the last one... 10 minutes to grid.. 20 minutes on track, 10 minute download, 20 minute break...back on track i would say lets just pack up at the end and all head to brunch somewhere... get a big booth indoors and chill talking cars like last time....this time in Air Conditioning.

Unless you are walking or riding a bike to the event you can run. I'm still perplexed why people think they need to have a bad ass car to drive these events. Simon proved to all the "hard parkers" a few events ago that you can run what ya brung (by driving his *Mom's* Ford Focus)!

I'm sick of hearing people say, "I'm waiting for my coilovers from Japan" or "I need to get my new exhaust installed first" or...

NO one is fast their 1st time out so just start driving already. You could technically run HPDE1 in a rental car...

Seriously... NASA makes your first time experience in HPDE 1 a comfortable, safe and educational event. My first time at the track was a very nervous time because of all of the racing hype. Believe me, as I stated before, it will be a very enjoyable experience because of the level of organization that goes in to all of the NASA events...

For pads I used to use Raybestos from Checker. Not the uber racing expensive Raybestos either. I'm talking the ones that cost $19.99 and include a lifetime warranty. They didn't work all that great but I simply started braking a little earlier and just exchange them more often for new ones when they wore out. Cheap way to track!

Had a great time!!!

You're only on course for a little over 40 seconds so not much time to get the tires warm...Come out for the next one...It's cheap!!!

ask for of turn 1 aka "bottom of the hill" or out by turn 7-8 I think....you'll see all the action.........Turn 5 (end of straight) is boring and dusty when cars go off track or spin or just loose brakes....FYI....

for shade and a treee and no work ever Turn 3 right by the entrace to the west lot......you'll do nothing!! lol

Thanks for the info joser.
Hopefully you guys will see me at 1 or 7/8 .
I need something to watch when i'm a corner worker. Thats why i like turn 5 at PIR :)

[JoshDC2]

i got the funds for the event then when i go to sign up HPDE1 was sold out!!! I was so happy that i was finally going to get on the track only to be let down. I feel like crying... :(:cry::ballin:

I'm actuallly suprised that DE1 is sold out. In the early stages it didnt sound like this event was going to be very big at all. I guess new people got motivated.

[iApex]

Are you Jim Cozzolino's son?


Yes sir.... have i met you?

[SlowCivicHmm]

BUMP BUMP is it 430am yet?? lol

[JoshDC2]

thats what i'm saying. I'm not even running and i'm pumped!

[SlowCivicHmm]

its not 100% i might test out that EP3......and if I don't I don't care.

I'm pumped up!! I miss the smell of tires and brakes!! Hanging with the usuals is always fun!!

PIR though, my hatch better be ready!!

[Tage]

See you guys in the morning!

Not sure where I'll be parked exactly. I'm going to shoot to park as close to the grid as I can though. I'm going to leave my house at 4AM so I'll be getting there a little before 5AM. Not sure if that will be early enough to be very selective of where I park.

For those that don't know what "Tage's trailer" looks like. It's a 20' white enclosed trailer with some (off road) Fox stickers on the back lower corners. Pewter Denali (i.e. Yukon XL/Suburban) is the tow vehicle.
