jmeris Posted October 26, 2010 Share Posted October 26, 2010 Buy my 2010 H2 Championship winning Civic and race H2. It will be formally posted for sale VERY SOON. I also have another potential H2 car for sale...for CHEAP. It's basically a rolling shell. It's not a Civic and not an Acura. (hmmm) pm me for details if you're interested. jmeris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Downey177 Posted October 29, 2010 Share Posted October 29, 2010 Redstone is done too with HC. Too much of a mess orgainzationally and rule application for us to deal with anymore. Time to move on. Many reasons as to why, many of you know, and not anthing we can write about on this forum, seeing as discussion are policed, restricted and most often removed. Pity we don't have a real forum where we can openly disucss issues and ideas.....oh well.....life goes on...for the better. We'll miss all our HC buddies..it was blast and a pleasure to run with you. Maybe we'll meet again on track...in another series? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hagakure Posted October 29, 2010 Share Posted October 29, 2010 Kind of bummed to hear folks are leaving just when I felt like making a committment to HC....Mybe I'll just have Mike throw the "big" motor in the Lude and run ITE and NCRC races:( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have plenty of time to decide. I'd like to race against you in H2 though. The car was specifically built for H2, and it was clearly successful. I don't see why you wouldn't continue to race in it. I don't think there are contingencies (Toyo and Hawk) in regional events like there are in HC...but I could be wrong. I didn't know with Brandon selling his H1 car and the Downeys racing elsewhere, it would be such a determining factor for you as to whether or not you'll race in HC. I guess ITE and NCRC has something better to offer? i.e, competition?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hagakure Posted October 30, 2010 Share Posted October 30, 2010 It seems that Krause and Downey are not the only ones moving away fromt he series, but I could be wrong. You may be right, I may be a little wishy washy, but some of the factors Graham mentioned in his post make me a little wary as well. It was also a little daunting to see the secrecy as well as the cryptic nature of all the stuff that went on at nationals. I'm looking to have fun, low-key, stress free...maybe HC is a bit to "serious" for me, I don't know. So, yes, a few things for me to consider.

Even though some people wants some rules changed, everybody here gets along with the race directors, so nobody is leaving. I'm with Merris... why would you let the departure of one family change your mind? You still have fast drivers to run with. And Brandon, I wouldn't consider SCCA ITE. I ran SCCA ITE for nearly 2 years. It sucked (for me.). It puts miatas in the same class as Vipers or Turbo charged NSX's or whatever is out there. Stock vs tube framed. If you are lucky, you find one other car that sort of matches your car and you get a race out of it. I ran in the front with my car in almost every race, and just got bored becuase I had such a humongous advantage car-wise over the rest of the field.

I agree that ITE is not good place for a H1 car to run. However there is a class called STU that would be a great class for a H1 car. It can be done with very few mods and the class is growing in popularity. In fact a TSX won the nationals this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hagakure Posted November 6, 2010 Share Posted November 6, 2010 I think STU has a ton of possibility for growth.....good mention. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
