I noticed on the June 14 entry on myautoevents.com that there are 2 event dates, June 14 and May 31. Maybe that has something to do with it. See the attached screenshot.

Tires and wheels- pick up a set of Bridgestone RE71R's in a size recommended for your stock wheels or 15" if legal for your car.
If you plan to use the same tires for autox and daily driving you may want to skip the RE71R. They are a new tire this year and people are finding that they wear extremely fast. But they do seem to be one of the fastest tires. And like he said: tires and alignment are the best start. After seat time, that is.

I believe PAX will be calculated on the total score from the judges. This is important for the the stretched tires, I missed it the first time I read the rules. "tires are required to have higher than ambient air pressure when the score is assigned"

Ben, Your fastest clean run was 43.861 and your Miata is in class ES. Each class has a PAX, or factor, that is used to equalize the cars. So you can almost say, that if everyone had the same car, what would everyone's time be in that car?
The PAX for ES is 0.808.
43.861 x 0.838 = 35.439.
Edit: the +.303 is the time between you and the person who finished just in front of you.

Hey Mike, Every 5k should be ok on our engine. I've been getting used oil analysis done since I got the car just to keep an eye on the wear rate of everything. You can see my 3rd UOA here - http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?p=2060327#post2060327 , along with a bunch of others as well. The lab suggested I could try 7500 next time, but I am rounding all maintenance down to keep everything at 5k intervals. travis

Thanks, James. Is it possible to get the raw data? I like wasting time playing with spreadsheets too much and the PDF is not very easy to extract the data from.
