I'm not going to make this, but it is possible for some of you mid Atlantic guys to take advantage. The deal is really good for folks new to the club.. Here is the blurb written by COM's chief instructor: DE/Time Trial Summit Point Main May 7-8 COM Sports Car Club is a HPDE & Time Trial...

The very first SA (2000) rated helmet I ever bought was the G-Force Hybrid. G-Force Modified SA2010 Helmet - SafeRacer At the time I was doing lots and lots of AX events, and doing maybe a couple or three track events a year. The things I liked about it was there was plenty of space in the...

May 7-8, 2012 COM hasn't released their official schedule, but I think these dates will be solid. The club hasn't done a TT event on the main course since 2004 so I would say all the class lap records are up for grabs. This is a two day event with practice sessions and student groups on day...

Turn Zero Technical Resources :: Racing Excuse Generator Time to bone up on the excuses....one wants to be prepared...

I'm just a member of this club, so this is not as much of an advertisement as it is a plea to help get folks out to this event. :) For those of you in the north country, COM Sports Car Club will be holding a two day event at Mosport on May 2 and 3. Day one and half of day two will be...

I have been browsing around for a new suit for awhile, and really want at least a 2-3 layer suit, but this stuff is really expensive and I don't want to deal with buying something only to return it to get another. I'd rather get it right the first time. The suit I have is single layer, and is...

Not to steal Tony or Pat's thunder, but here is a link to the TCUSA store item for the Summit Point Shenandoah open track event on August 13 and 14. TCUSA Store The reg fee is 350 until August 1, then becomes 375... This is an awesome deal. Two days of green track, point by passing, no...

If one hamster = 0.1, and I need 16 hamsters to power a 1.6L 93 Miata engine.....then I'll need two more to power the 1.8 I'm installing this week. If the replacement engine makes stock power levels, and there is no reason it shouldn't, it will be roughly a 20hp improvement, and more torque...

...pointing a Miata. I stay behind and watch this fracas, then make a pass on the camera car at around the 3 minute mark after he puts two wheels off and almost looses it. We go a lap or so and I pull into the pits as I just start to fuel starve the car.....WAY on E.... YouTube -...

Here are some vid highlights of me from the newish track in NY state, Monticello Motor Club. This was a Monday-Tuesday event. It was a busy event as I had two students in addition to getting my own seat time. I highly recommend this track. Lots of great turns (21 in all on the full course)...

I'm posting this for Pat Madigan of SCMC/TCUSA and for George DiGregorio of the Baystate Corvette Club.. I believe there are still slots open for this SCMC/Track Club USA event on April 17. Here is the link...

I had a little bit of a buff job done so I could apply the new vinyl numbers.. I guess there was a pretty good finish left under a thick layer of skuzz... and the passenger side...

It looks like my big winter mod will be fresh rubber. I'll probably run three sets of tires. A soft tire, a hard tire, and wets. I'm pretty sure the soft tire will be A6's, and obviously the wets will be Hoosiers. I'm just not quite sure about the hard tire. At first I thought I wanted V710's...

Hi folks, NE-SVT, the autocross club I head, has secured August 28 and 29 2010 with Calabogie in conjunction with 3 Balls racing, and will be opening reg for it very soon.....within a week or so. The event will be capped at around 60 cars. The first sessions will be split until the cars...

These were used for one season. They are 2.5 ID 10" coils which were used with an MM front coil over kit on Bilstein struts. They are in great shape. No pics....everyone knows what springs look like. ;) 70 bucks shipped anywhere in the lower 48. I also have two pairs of stock 03 Cobra IRS...

How is this for an itinerary? Leave Boston this Friday morning. Arrive in Calabogie Ontario Friday evening. Track days Saturday and Sunday with 3balls racing at Calabogie Motorsports Park. Then pack up Sunday afternoon and high tail it to Mosport for the next two days with Track Guys on the...

Someone on here posted a funny rhetorical story sometime back. The story is about two guys....one is a track dog that continually asks the other guy if he is coming out to events. The other guy continually makes excuses about what the car needs until he finally says the car is finished after...

I drove a Cayman S at a Devens event recently. It was an autocross course in our typical 2.1 mile configuration, and much faster than a standard parking lot course. I had my Miata there on the harder track rubber, but still track rubber none-the-less. The Cayman was completely stock, with stock...

My brother’s son is going to MIT. He and some class mates are doing a project for extra credits. Their project is to build a few I-phone apps. I mentioned to my brother about a potentially simple app they could do to make a lap timer for a couple bucks a download. Some folks, such as...

My trip to Tremblant was a good one, and I got a good amount of track time, but it rained pretty hard during the time trials, and everyone in my class aside from me was running Hoosier wets. In the standing water....of which there was a LOT at the track...particularly in the places where a...

This is......well........really something.. Welcome! FerrariGuyForHire.com I can't say that it isn't safe for work, aside from the fact that you could be partially blinded.. Have at it.

Ok. I'm leaving for Mont-Tremblant on Friday, and here is the deal: This will be my fifth time to the track for a TT event. The previous four years were with my Cobra. I have logged at least 1200 miles, roughly 461 laps at this place in total. My best lap there is 1:54 in the Cobra. I have a...

I promise, there is one in the picture. :)

I just wanted to post up about this event. Com has a rather low car count for this upcoming event. They will not cancel, and there are presently only 4 students registered, so by midday the first day, it could go to open track. There is a time trial on the second day, but with so few cars, it...

I have some miscellaneous stuff that I'll have with me at Summit Point this weekend. 1 set of front galpher pads for 00R brembo, new. I have a complete set (fits front 00R brembo and stock rear caliper) Carbotech AX6 pads....used, but with more than half life left. I also have another...
