Re: Proving Grounds 2012
 

maybe but i thought they had changed the helmet requirement or something, guess i will have to look it up like you said

Re: Proving Grounds 2012
 

^This last season is should have switched from Snell 2000 to Snell 2005.

Re: Proving Grounds 2012
 

I want to figure out something where you can pay a smaller fee and do just one session. I'll have more details on this later.


Road course will require any SNELL2005 and newer.

Re: Proving Grounds 2012
 

There will be some fast mitsu's there this year. I'm sure we could setup some grudge racing.

Re: Proving Grounds 2012
 

When you do more than aim down the track and actually drive a car for once let me know how that goes. ;)

Re: Proving Grounds 2012
 

STI vs Evo on the road course?!?!? Would you guys like to see some sort of competition like this?

Re: Proving Grounds 2012
 

This will work... Spaz I'm calling you out on the road course. Prepare to have your ass handed to you.

:)

Re: Proving Grounds 2012
 

I'll be fully prepared for my ass-handing, no worries. :D

Re: Proving Grounds 2012
 

Hopefully if there is any grudge races it's better than what happen at forum wars.

Lmao!!!!!!!!!
:skiing:

Re: Proving Grounds 2012
 

I like this idea. I think the Evo's will dominate. that is if GST Motorsports doesnt show up with their Impreza L. :frown:

Something i wanted to do the last 2 years. I wanted to setup a triple challenge. Drag race, Auto-X, and Road course. using a formula (to create each event equal) multiplied by your times. This would be the ultimate driver/car challenge.

Re: Proving Grounds 2012
 

Maybe Mitsu vs Subaru, so I can get out there with the 1G. :)

Any idea what the Mitsu to Subaru ratio was on the road course last year? I don't remember there being too many Subarus even there.

Re: Proving Grounds 2012
 

Don't forget the emissions, car show, engineering, driveability, dyno, fuel economy and gross display of horsepower categories.

Re: Proving Grounds 2012
 

I would be all over this if you could make it happen. Might know a few guys that would as well. The biggest obstacle would be event timing... there is still a lot of overlap (which can't really be avoided).

Re: Proving Grounds 2012
 

Yes, I'm hoping we can overcome that somehow. More details to come.....

Glad there are some people interested.

Re: Proving Grounds 2012
 

Last year a couple of us on the road course thought it be fun to run in all 3 events, but as it turns out the autox, drag, and road course events are going on at the same time for the timed events. Hopefully you can get this sorted out for next year, I know myself and 2 others that will be game for that challenge for sure.

Re: Proving Grounds 2012
 

It might still work. Day 1 last year was practice / timed autoX #1, Road Course, and open drag practice. Day 2 was timed autoX #2, and Drag shootout. Even making it to the final in the largest field in drag, I had ample time to get my junk over to the autoX to get tech'd and all the runs. If I had elected to do the road course on day 1, instead of just drag, all 3 would have been possible that weekend.

Re: Proving Grounds 2012
 

Um, i've done it plenty of times and turns out even on teh street I don't spin out on corners and at the auto-x i do pretty good, hell I came within .02 secs of beating the driver of a car who had been doing auto-x all year and previously before and that was my first time in that car!

But well that's how that went, now please tell us all your wisdom from running off the road, car crashes, the internet and of course forza. :wink:

Also I plan on taking home the stock appearing trophy if i make this event, with a 16G.

Re: Proving Grounds 2012
 

I smell a road course/auto-x grudge match right here.

Re: Proving Grounds 2012
 

Let's fucking do it.

Re: Proving Grounds 2012
 

Word.

I have a question, why is everyone so against drag racing here?

Considering that's all DSMs are really good for?

I hope they can set up road racing and drag, i'd like to do those.
