[BlueTeg]

[topramn]

Last I heard, the guest group was EuroTuner Magazine. But not sure if that has changed or not.

[EG6-DC2]

Last I heard, the guest group was EuroTuner Magazine. But not sure if that has changed or not.

EuroTuner? Are they testing out some cars or is it personal cars out there? If they will be having some nice high end cars out there, it might be worth going to watch them tear it up!

If not, then they are wasting my Sunday track time!:devil:

[mc_rhett_meister]

Hope i can make it :(

[Vtecracer]

you better make it Rhett....that would be 2 **cough** new cars at the track....

[fmx_dbc]

I want my new transmission...boo. Gosh I spend too much $$$

[SlowCivicHmm]

Not sure if I'll be there running, but def be there for tech and for hanging out!!

[iApex]

how come the events cant be 30 days apart. hard to come up with the money. thought i had time and bought wheels. this sucks now im a "hard parker" i think you guys call it. hopefully i can get my dad to give me an advance because i work for him. haha one benefit to working for family. i hate having to work for money already spent. but i have to go to this i said i was going to the last one.

umm.. 27 days is pretty damn close to 30.. stop buying stuff and just drive.. plus the schedule for the entire year has been up since last november.. no reason to not know when the events are... 2009 schedule should be available to the public in the next month or so..

[SlowCivicHmm]

budget...YAY!!

[PhoenixB16]

There for sure.Driving? Doubtfull.

[topramn]

there for sure.driving? Doubtfull.

what? nevermind.. i got it..

Never said it wasnt my fault. Rims are bought and your right it is 27, but last two weeks went by fast. i am by no means rich yes i have a mom and dad but i work for every single thing i own and or do. i am giong to try my best to get on track but i have to pay bills or else i have nothing to track with. wheels were a stupid move but car had 18 lbs 16's made by asa- had to go plus new ones have been bought. im going to not put tires on them i think and use that money to run with my current wheels then put tires on between next event. purpose of previous post was to point out i made a mistake. i want to run.

[BlueTeg]

Have you done track events before? I thought I remember you saying that you had some track time under your belt. (???)

http://www.azht.net/forum/showthread.php?t=69041
^ Check these out. Perfect for your situation. Why?
1.) They're very affordable. You'll spend $400+ alone on wheels before shipping or tax.
2.) They're 8" wide. So you get a nice fat contact patch
3.) Aside from Hoosiers, 710's are the next stickiest tire. Sure the tires are old, but they'll grip way better than any street tire, and for the price you shouldn't expect them to perform like new. This tire/wheel combo would cost you $1000+ if you bought brand new
4.) Small overall rolling diameter means that you can run a wide tire without worrying about the tire rubbing on your fenders. More importantly this tire/wheel combo gives you similar gearing to adding a JDM ITR final drive. Those of you that have driven on this combo can attest to the acceleration they will add (I think only Tage and Jose, but still. LOL)

The only 'con' I can see is:
I do not recommend them for your first time out. I'm a big advocate of learning to drive on street tires until you're ready for DE3. Because of the high level of grip R-compounds have, it can hide some mistakes that you may make as a beginner. I drove on street tires for my first 2 years in the DE program.

If you're not ready to make the financial commitment to them. You can rent them for $30/day or $50 for the weekend. If you decide to buy them within the next 25 days after the event, I'll apply the rental fee to the purchase price. But please, keep in mind that it really is best to learn on street tires before making the jump to Rcompounds so if you decide to buy them, you many want to sit on them for a bit before using them religiously at the track.

[iApex]

ya i have been on a track 2 times . my dad rented FIR west a while back. then i ran on spring mountain for a 2 day event and got like literally 4 hours of track time altogether in the 2 days . so point im making is yes i have been on track but maybe only 5 hrs so i want to stay on street tires for now. i bought some buddy clubs they will be here tuesday. if i run though i will still be on my 16 asa's which sucks. becasue i cant offord tires for the buddy clubs and to run. i might say fuck it and sit this event out till i get the tires so when i start im completely ready. i can already tell this is an expensive sport. im runing the next auto cross for sure though.

reason I haven't fully commited to buying them...grr....lol...if not MINE! i know i've said it before...

hey gabe I might rent them again if you have them still closer to the event, the hatch needs maintance 1st before I commit to driving......fyi..

[BlueTeg]

on street tires for now. i bought some buddy clubs they will be here tuesday. if i run though i will still be on my 16 asa's which sucks. becasue i cant offord tires for the buddy clubs and to run. i might say fuck it and sit this event out till i get the tires so when i start im completely ready.

Don't sit out cause you're waiting for tires. Come out, go through the DE1 school and that way when you get your 'good' tires you'll have already run the track once and have been through the school portion.

Trust me, unless you're running 175/75/13 snow tires, the tires you have on those 16s will be more than enough to provide some grins around PIR.

[SlowCivicHmm]

He's tracked with us before Gabe.....

Bald dude, Silver DC5 out at West with us this month...

[ILIKETODRIVE]

He's tracked with us before Gabe.....

[Phantomeg]

Bald dude, Silver DC5 out at West with us this month...

You're thinking of Paul that hangs with us with the DC5...

[SlowCivicHmm]

haha, okay...in another post this guy said he was the bald dude...lol.....i'm bad with n ames...ya'll know that by now...how long it take me to get everyone's straight...lol

I'm a dumbass...

ASPEC is paul..

iApex....looked the same to me.....OWNED!

[iApex]

im not bald lol. im pretty sure some of you saw me at the last event i went up and introduced myself but no one was very talkative. if you see me youll know im pretty short (5'2) on a good day. last event i was with another kid who had red hair if that helps. and i drive a red DC2. thats me in the avatar. ya you make good valid points gabe im going to try to put off buying the tires for the buddyclub wheels and use that money to sign up. and jsut run on my 16's.

[JoshDC2]

so if you see a red dc2 on track its either me or iApex
Mine is the one with more stickers(probably)

[aphenix]

Qord ima try to get my ass down there

[BlueTeg]

iapex: tell your pops to mob the NSX next weekend!!

[SlowCivicHmm]

i think I remember you...my bad...i was on no sleep...up like 36hrs n shit..hahha

see you, i'll be @ tech..

[iApex]

iapex: tell your pops to mob the NSX next weekend!!

we pulled the motor and the super charger and are putting them into mark johnson of dali racing's nsx. my dad has a new built motor bored to 3.3. with a 2.3 whipple supercharger on that. his last charger was only a 1.8. so new motor and charger are ging in to my dads nsx. were hoping to around 550 to the wheels. maybe more. but im going to ry to get him to come out with me anyway.

[DeeDub]

I need to finish my car already! I wanna go out with you guys!

[SlowCivicHmm]

I need to finish my car already! I wanna go out with you guys!

then get off the board and get to the garage...lol

[PhoenixB16]

joser,what up with the BBQ idea? text,4806950360

[SlowCivicHmm]

not sure dude...i'm down to hang and cook...probably nothing officially set.....i'll text ya dogg!

[iApex]

so if you see a red dc2 on track its either me or iApex
Mine is the one with more stickers(probably)

I have a big red AAP sticker on the back of my car, and a small Dali Racing one on the windshield. I have 5 point harnesses to.

[woody55]

so if you see a red dc2 on track its either me or iApex
Mine is the one with more stickers(probably)

Or me! I probably have more stickers than both of you combined. And more dents, scratches, tire marks, etc...

[SlowCivicHmm]

Or me! I probably have more stickers than both of you combined. And more dents, scratches, tire marks, etc...

hey your car rocks!!!

i haven't seen scott post much...the DA done for?? or what?

[woody55]

Just found this site, Scott actually told me about it. He is getting the car ready for PIR, it will be interesting to see how the B20 and the B18C motors compare. We are both at about the same weight, final drives, tires, suspension, etc... so it will be very interesting to see who has the advantage where.

I'm just trying to get my post count up so I can browse the classifieds to see what deals might be out there...

[fmx_dbc]

I love it when a plan comes together Hannibal! Going to have my slicks on with the new lighter wheels, and it looks like I might have a YS1 trans to put in before the event as well! In addition, I'm going to try to install the quicker steering ratio internals into my rack. I'm very excited about that. All I need now is my damn cam gears for the bad boy cams...I might be waiting a while...

[BlueTeg]

If Scott doesn't have an LSD on his car I don't he'll have the advantage anywhere. **Assuming all driver / power / and tire variables are equal.....the B18c transmission alone is worth at least half second, maybe a full second at PIR IMO. 2-3 gear change is night and day (BTW: is he running a vtec transmision? since you said you both have the same final drives? nonvtec = 4.2 VTEC=4.4) Those 2L's pull well out of slow speed corners but if he can't put the power down cause he's burning the inside wheel it won't do him much good.

[woody55]

Scott and I both have the 4.7 final drive and and LSD, I have the Quaife and he has a clutch type (Mugen maybe??). He has an LS tranny and I have the GSR tranny so, you are right, the engine and tranny gears are both different aside from the final drive. Both run the 225/45-15 RA-1 spec Honda Challenge tires. At this point I think we'll just have to wait to see... I should see if I can find the dyno graphs of our cars, we had them tuned at Locash back to back and got a print out of the two together. As you can assume, he has more torque down low and I have more HP up high, I just don't remember the details.

[dantana]

I might actually attend this event, assuming i dont head up to utah for some forest grouse hunting. If i attend, ill most likely be helping people out, and giving ride alongs in my tacoma :bananaman:
any young blood need help out there?

Got all signed up for DE2!!!
Gabe, you're going to be the group leader for 2 correct?
I want you to go out with me and make sure i'm ready for DE2. And give me instruction on the corners because I've never driven PIR only ride alongs.

[BlueTeg]

Not sure which group I'll be doing until a couple days before the event. Regardless, just talk to the group leader (me or merv or chris) and ask for some ride along pointers for the first session.

Sweet thank you

[SlowCivicHmm]

I'll give you a tip josh.....do not lift in turn 1...hahaha....if your ass puckers up...smash on it...most people never go fast enough there including me...pedal to the floor!! hahah

[fmx_dbc]

anyone have the circular part the holds the Speed Sensor Cable on a B Series Cable tranny? The part from my LS tranny is a quarter inch smaller in diameter than the one I need

[BlueTeg]

Dremel that ish...

[fmx_dbc]

if I find a way to dremel a smaller part and make it increase in size, I will definitely let you know... Until then, I need the larger sized VSS piece the the cable goes into

[fmx_dbc]

NVM I got it taken care of

[Kinetic]

i might have to run in group 2 just to hang out with the honda guys

[SlowCivicHmm]

haha.....back in DE2 huh Ward?? Damn....I might need to run....

[fmx_dbc]

I got my tranny on...now just trying to get that new steering rack up on there. God I hate working on my car in the driveway! Especially 3 days in a row in the heat, after working 9 hours each day. I'm motivated to get it running tip top for the event though.

[JoshDC2]

i might have to run in group 2 just to hang out with the honda guys

[JoshDC2]

I got my tranny on...now just trying to get that new steering rack up on there. God I hate working on my car in the driveway! Especially 3 days in a row in the heat, after working 9 hours each day. I'm motivated to get it running tip top for the event though.

i wish i was that motivated :dumbass:

i THINK it will be done in time.. have not tried to fire the engine yet *crossesfingers*

just for kicks..if there is a ton of Honder drivers then it might be fun.....then again with no passing in the corners it might not be.....

registering in DE3 and moving down just causes more traffic in DE2 the day of........

I think you missed my point Joser. I want to register for de2....to feel out the car...instead of showing up to do de3 with no track time in the new ride...that way i could move up to de3 if packed. I have no intention of registering for de3 right now. I probably won't make the event.

[woody55]

Step up to the Race class Ladies, typically has the smallest run groups and you can pass anywhere. Well... I can't, but that is just because I suck at driving.

Anyone got any ideas on how I can drop 80 lbs out of the car in a week without spending any $$$? I started scraping off all the sound deading and undercoating that was left but I don't think that stuff weighs that much...

What time you all showing up to the track? I plan on getting out there Friday afternoon to get a prized garage spot.

[SlowCivicHmm]

i'd love to build an h2 car...some day...bank roll ain't there...grrr

TA this wiinter I hope...lol

80lbs?? have you cut your doors?? ummm damn thats a lot of weight...lol whats your goal??

I won't be at the track til sat morning...530ish...

amazingly, sound deading is usually only about 15-20 lbs.. have you removed all your ac and heating components? probably have but worth asking.. i heard h2 now allows plexi windows.. you can get some plexi cheap at home depot and do it yourself.. im sure i will think of more.. pm me what you have done already and i will see if i can think up something else that i didnt mention..

[woody55]

Pretty much anything that is not needed has been removed, all A/C, heater, P/S, door windows, door panels, weather stripping... everything. H2 min weight is 2400lbs with driver and I'm right about 2500lbs with a half tank of gas, which is the min weight for H4 when we ran there thus the sound deading/undercoating is still on the car. I can do lexan but dont have the $$$ or time to get it done before next weekend.

Anyone know how much the structural support under the hood weighs? Can't imagine it would be more than 5-10lbs... but I could cut it out for FREE!!!

[Phantomeg]

I wouldn't worry so much about weight...Maybe just try to keep that right foot down on the floor longer...A good instructor will gain you faster lap times than taking out an extra 50 lbs...

I know the weight will not show up much in lap times but if I can remove it for FREE why not? I do need to work on my driving... I am the slowest part of the car by far. Scott has driven the car a few times and each time went faster than I did that day in just a few laps.

Only thing that really sucks is that race group only gets 3 sessions each day so it really does not give me enough time to tune the car and my driving each weekend.

[SlowCivicHmm]

hey eric....are you allowed to drop into de3 if need for a shake down if you promise to play nice and the leader clears ya? come run PASA events for extra seat time...thats where I first met ya years ago...

[Phantomeg]

he can drop to de3 but must be cleared by the group leader ahead of time..

He's not in 4, so he's not "dropping".

What time does the autox start? I might roll out to PIR tech and drive back to my side of town and take pics at the autox..

[cjb]

See you guys out there. Just signed up DE3... now to get ahold of gabe and borrow some race rubber...

[woody55]

I have run in HPDE4/TT before to get extra track time. It was cleared prior to me signing up and I played nice and let the TT cars by as I was just using the track time for car set-up. I would like to do this more but I'm not rich and can't afford to pay for two entry fees per weekend, tires, brakes, etc... I'm sure you guys can understand that!

[woody55]

Would be dropping to HPDE 4 or 3 from race group. I run in H2 class not HPDE2. Always confuses people between the Honda Challenge classes and HPDE classes...too many H's to keep things straight.

hahahaha i need to see this sticker when its done

[flyzlow]

What's up what's up ... I'm finally on the check-in

I just got the racecar squared away (as it's gonna get) today, so I should be good to go for next weekend. I'm really looking forward to trying out the B20 against Erik's GSR power. Hopefully I can keep the axles in the transmission this time. The car goes a lot faster that way. I'm really not looking forward to the heat though I really hope that the new oil cooling system will help keep the oil temps under 300, so I don't have a repeat of May where I had to drive around for the whole race shifting at 4500 revs and getting lapped by everyone in my class.

H2 is looking a little light for this weekend. Hopefully Jason will have his car out there. Erik and I will be there for sure. I don't know about the Chez and I know the HASPORT guys will be at Nationals, so count them out. I wish Scotty R would bring that gorgeous little EG out instead of it being a fully prepped garage queen its whole life. I do hate that we only get 3 sessions because by the time you shake down the car in the first session, you're basically out of chances to tune stuff. You don't really want to change anything before qualifying or race if you can help it.

Maybe I can finally throw down some 1:11's in my car in the morning sessions. That's gonna be my goal for the weekend. It might be tough to get there w/o the front splitter though. I keep putting that on the back burner and not getting it done.

[SlowCivicHmm]

sounds good scott....B20 huh....NIIIICE

So hey...I've been working on a DA!! PITA!! wow...way diff than EG's...haha

[topramn]

forcasted temps for this coming weekend.. 94 degrees... not too bad if you ask me.. scott, jason is bringing the car to the track but not sure if he is gonna race or not.. he is still recovering from his hernia.. as for rutledge, i hope to see his car show up this weekend as well since it has been rumored that he would be driving..

[fmx_dbc]

I'd like to see Rutledge's car out there myself. Spent the weekend sorting some bugs out with the car. The gear ratios are awesome and the steering is even better! I can't wait for the weekend. Not sure if I'll have my new cam setup in and tuned...kinda went over budget. If I can get ANOTHER loan I'll get it tuned.

[Phantomeg]

[cspcrx]

My problem is I am lazy. I have no desire to load the car up again on sunday to driver 1 hour each way from the north west valley to drive my car for less then 5 min. 60 min of seat time on saturday will be enough. First time the car will be out with new motor, rad and a bunch of other stuff so Satuday will be a big shack down day.

I heard that Rutledge's car was spotted on the Nurburgring for a shakedown last month by some spy photographers from Road & Track. It was heavily camoflauged so as not to reveal the car's identity.

I'll try and dig up the pics from my computer at home.

I would say that the odds are high he'll have the car ready for this weekend.

Lots of little shit to do. i will be out in the afternoon after work to see you guys. Plus the car still has not been fired, i dont have race rubber yet, and it will need an alignment and tune. soooo

Not the ABS, but I was gonna go on track anyways!
No, because of other people being too bus,y I will not have a cage to mount my harnesses correctly and still having a odd vtec hesitation issue. So, overall, its not tip top.
Ill be out there though for some ride alongs!

[EG6-DC2]

I just went back and looked at the schedule again. What is with the DE2 and DE1 being combined? I have a feeling that this may create a mess out there, as slower DE2 people to do anyways. How many cars will this end up putting out there too?

The flashers may be on, but that won't get them out of the way. Now I'm not saying all of them will be in the way, but I'm guessing that there may be a couple. Hell, there are a couple of them in DE2 already. Why add more?

[mc_rhett_meister]

ghey....

Why did you take your roll bar out anyways?

I know youre telling me! I just want the caR done man!
cause it was all messed up and i wanted to weld it in with more points!

Oh ok, I was thinking that there would be more than that. I guess we can work around 4 people.:tongue:

Well one of us DE2 people has moved up to DE3, but you need Phil kind of money for that! Besides myself and others still in DE2 are too slow for DE3!

[topramn]

typically de2 holds 35 to 40 cars on track at once at PIR.. last i heard, there was at least 10 spots available in de2 so that should create zero problems. I will watch the de1 drivers thru the day and remove them from the track as needed and give pointers when needed..

[dantana]

noodles you gonna have the grid nazi with you, i think his name is fingers or something? that guy kicks ass for the club! Everyone have fun and remember to be safe above all else!:bananaman: Im curious to see how Phil likes de3 now that hes not the big fish in the small pond :smoke:
SEE YOU GUYS NEXT MONTH!

[JoshDC2]

Sounds good. I was just worried when I first saw that, that the course would be filled with DE1 and would limit the experience out there. But it does not sound like the case.:)

Can you also keep an eye out for that damn Nissan 280Z (or whatever it is) that keeps spilling fuel everywhere when he goes around turns!:pissed:

It's an old white Datsun 240Z. The owner/driver always comes up with some bullshit excuse.
-At FIR East it was that he was full on gas. SO FUCKING WHAT! If your car wasn't a piece of shit, it wouldn't spill gas, PERIOD.
-At FIR West he said his gas cap was bad. FUCK THAT HALF-ASSED BULLSHIT ANSWER.

If he is there and passes tech, is still spilling gas and doesn't get black flagged, I'm going straight to whoever I need to go to so that he isn't allowed back on track.

I as a tech official (me and jon) pointed that out when I was on track doing a ride along....pointed it out to corner workers as we did laps on west.........I was choking on the fumes and i coulda been a bad stuation if it ever ignited.....yet he was allowed to finish the sesssion with no issue...

Still nothing was done about it I don't think...he was back out in next session....its called a BLACK flag and go home....

gas on hot brakes....instant FIRE if there is metalic sparks from the compound of brakes he was running.....I dunno, I tech in the am and till the pm if I see any issues...but thats me...

In tech's defense...we don't check the gas tank or cap.....but I'll make sure to ask him or let Ward know...

[mc_rhett_meister]

Ill personally give that guy a BJ if he spills anymore gas. Maybe a rusty trombone as well, if he is real naughty

[SlowCivicHmm]

come meet us at tech..we'll point him out to ya and let ya do your thang...haha

[JoshDC2]

arent many 280z's lol

if there is an issue with gas spillage, find your group leader, address it with him or find a tech official.. what can corner workers do? they are on corners..

[Phantomeg]

I'll keep an eye on Phil...LOL

Don't you guy's worry about me...I'll be fine...Look out for those other ASS HOLES!!!

[fmx_dbc]

haha "Clear a path people!!!"

This has been brought up to the group leaders before. This is where the guy comes up with some BS excuse. Fluids on the track are dangerous and the fact that it comes gushing out in turns only makes it worse. Then there is the fact that I don't want it dumping all over my car and possibly coming in the windows, seeing that they are down. Oh well, enough of that hopefully the guy has it fixed this event.

Is it Saturday yet?

[mc_rhett_meister]

When can I wake up in your arms?

I will personally remove the driver from the session if he is spilling fluids...................

just let me know guys

Its not a race so it doesnt matter. If your skill level is there you will be aware of faster cars coming up on you and do the right thing and give them the point to pass. My car, little ol 86 CRX, isnt fast and I found DE3 very comfortable. Lots of curtousy and drivers who know how to handle their cars.

[EG6-DC2]

When you decide to come stay the night!:sucker:

I realize that it isn't a race. I just worry at my level that I would be the guy holding people up and then be the one getting complained about. Maybe one day when I reach Phil's level of driving, then I too can move up to DE3. Until then, I will just keep complaining about the newbs holding me up! :grin:

[cspcrx]

I hear what your saying. I dont know you but its actually admirable that your thinking about others like that. Rage on about the newbs. LOL

Hey everyone is out there to have a good time, I just hate when people's ego's get in the way and ruin other people's experiences

Oh and I am the one who drives the silver 4dr turd of an ITR that Phil made a thread of, right below this one.

[Vtecracer]

Hey guys just remember to bring up any issues with the DOWNLOAD session. If you don't speak up then nothing can be done. Also remember to watch your mirrors. If you don't look in your mirrors then you don't know your holding anyone up and then when that person dive bombs you to get past you and show you they are there some complain that he or she is dive bombing/passing late...etc. Watch your mirrors and drive safe people. I don't want to see any of our HONDA guys get hurt or the cars get hurt because of unsafe driving on track. Just control your frustration and discuss it in downloads. I wish the best of luck to you all and be safe. I will come visit in the afternoon.

LOL. The last time something was brought up in a download, I thought Phil was going to get attacked! The guy got his panties in a wad b/c he said Phil was divebombing him in the straights! Talk about an oxymoron! Divebombing in the straightaways is not possible, I'm guessing he just didn't like getting passed!:rflmao:

[UMS Tuning Sales]

thats what the downloads are for...if there is an issue take it up with the group leader afterwards...unfortunately some people take criticism the wrong way and are easily offended


With the teg...alot of vette and bMW owners got pissed because I was faster than them in HPDE2
