What makes it DP? So far it's STS. *Sorry, you pulled parts out. Well, put those parts back in.

:)

Ping me, I just bought a house at 40 and 55.

Running in str is tempting (have 1.8 and torsen) but I really like my kirkey seat and my momo wheel. I am also planning to do more things that would put me more firmly into CSP. I pulled a few things off that technically move me into DP and since I am slow, and don't care about my pax. If people here are cool with me running in CSP I would be good to do that. I just don't want to ruffle any feathers here or at triad events.

I am attaching a list of things I have done to the car so far (borla catback and rpf1s aren't on there). Some of the really minor stuff like the glove box removal is the result of things not working correctly. Also, I am an anal retentive and I make a lot of spreadsheets.

Oh yes, you will fit in around here ;).

I'm doing the S2000's tranny fluid, rear bar and front bar tomorrow and the Bimmer's RTABs and FCABs if you wanna come over and drink beer. Hell, you can bring the miata over and do some projects....I have a shit load of tools (including air) and jacks.

What am I mssing? The red/blue columns don't seem to add up to the total at the bottom...and the total removed doesn't equal the diff between "removed" and "added" columns?

The front bumper support went back on today and I'm going to build it as a TIR CSP car for the next couple of seasons.

If you want to run on rcomps this weekend let me co-drive your car. :)

(Your fenders need to be rolled for clearance for my wheels/tires to fit)

Welcome Alec,

You'll find your new location is close to lots of THSCC members. There is a cluster of us in Durham near Southpoint (you'd fall into this) and a cluster in N. Durham as well. Lots of 'let us install parts on <insert name here>'s car and drink beer' around here :).


If I had known back in the day, maybe my cars would've been in better shape when I lived in Raleigh.

Now, I live in Craven County...And need parts installed...

speaking of new people. I met a subaru guy in the dog park, big surprise. And he was expressing interest in the autocross program. His subaru is a late model .
But lets hope we get another person. 8)
