DaveWright Posted February 28, 2010 Share Posted February 28, 2010 Well it sucks to sit on the sidelines once again and watch you guys race. But I really enjoyed some damn good racing today. Mike had electrical issues and didn't get to qualify and had to start last. He made it to the front and battled with Zed until Zed made a mistake in turn 11 and Mike took the lead for the win. It was good to see all the guys make it back out for the season opener. Jimmy took third. I don't remember the rest but good racing everyone. I downloaded Mikes video and will post it when Vimeo finishes converting it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaveWright Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 Well today's race was nothing like yesterdays. They put the HC guys 3rd in line for a rolling start behind the Legend slows. In about 4 corners they caught them and the group was split up and running same lap times it stayed spread apart. The race group looked like TT. Great driving guys. Good clean racing!!!

clock Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 I still think that moving HC to Group C(CMC/AI) is a great idea. It should be clear that even H2 speeds are far too fast when they lap most of the field, some TWICE. Group A is too big as it is. I would think that Norcal organizers would welcome the idea to move cars out of group A. CMC had very few cars in it and only one start. Group A has 3 starts. Do the math.

Andrie Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 That some really good driving, Mike. Clean and tidy! Car a little bit more understeer than I would like. But fits perfect for Infineon. And obviously works great for you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And obviously works great for you! yeah, still fighting a push in the lude. Much different suspension then civics, the back is PLANTED, and it seams to respond differently to the normal steps to reduce understeer. Brandon has had some luck with going up in front spring rate, I may try that. But I am going to wait to do anything drastic until I get back on ra-1's. The car is very stable, a good match for the track conditions this weekend. I do l like a pushy car, especially when we have to move through 85 cars in one race!

Andrie Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 I think this is a moment where Honda Challenge racers as a group should be proud of. That kind of traffic and race hard without any body contact!! This video should be a show to other groups that racing in close quarter with fast cars doesn't mean body contact.

I talked to the Assistant Race director about that on Sunday morning to see if we could get moved into group B. They had already decided to move another class into that group. When they race a nor-cal race I will talk to the power to be about the possibility of us running with them. FYI - Group C - Group C Legends, Thunder Roadsters Group B - AI/X, CMC, CMC2, FFR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jmeris Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 It was fun watching the H2 cars go at it this weekend...makes me want to get my car H2 ready and run in H2! Having 8 cars in H2 at the first race weekend of the season makes this year look promising. It was also great to see a few new cars in HC, hopefully you guys will go to nationals too? There were 8 cars in H2. A few other H2'ers were missing...Dave W, Chris Smith, John A, anyone else??...there's also talk of Donna/Ron C running in H2 this year. So,with 10-12 H2 cars in Nor cal is possible...then there's 10-12 H2'ers in so cal...plus there's 2-4 H2'ers in Utah and a handful from the East... I know it's only March, but maybe a 25-30 car H2 field in Sept at Nationals???....it seems possible JMeris #727 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And where also trying to get guys to go to the same races, so that we have big fields, Since many (??most??) can't afford/don't want to run the full season. So if we can get it worked out, for 3 or 4 weekends we should have ~10+ H2 cars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I expect you will be right back to speed at the next event. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
