Varkwso Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 The only thing the two tracks have in common is the designer. Parkwarso is just being a hater as usual Really big turns before any straight, big turns at the end of any straight, a series of switchbacks, no vertical references, and a brake eater - ring any bells? Only thing I hate are sparkle ponies Miller has outstanding facilities at the track but it is not close to any real civilization. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yakisoba Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 I'd like to see dyno sheets required for TTA at least. Not sure they are now, and it's important. I'd like to see them for all the TT classes, of course, since we're wishing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ninetyfourintegra Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 Frankly I'd like to see us adopt a street tire index. That way we can keep costs down and still be able to compete even if we don't win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ninetyfourintegra Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 Like they do at some local auto-x's... for the guys that can't afford Rcomps. There is a factor applied to times to compensate for the slower times that true street tires account for. Trying to get as far off topic as possible.

beerkat Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 Speaking of GPS. My cell phone crapped put on me this weekend at CMP. I now have a Droid3 which is smarter than I am, but I have read that there is app that you can get that works some what like a Traqmate. Do any of you know the name of it?

obzezzed350 Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 I think a popular app is "Harrys lap timer" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Varkwso Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 for the guys that can't afford Rcomps. Race tires are cheaper than street tires. So very, very true. Unless I am practicing for OLOA or some other series requiring street tires I would never put them on track. They are great for a few heat cycles then fall. Of course I picked up 2.8 seconds from 10 heat cycle A6s to sticker ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
