The company I work for took some time off yesterday afternoon and we all (3) went to G-Force.
The two guys working the counter were helpful and knowledgeable about the operation. They were able to answer just about any question we had.
I don't know if the weekend crew is less friendly but these guys were pretty good and convinced us to all get memberships.

Maybe VMSC could have a semi-annual G-Force night? Maybe a pre-season warm-up...just a thought.

Anyone know when this event  will be open for registration?

what about a temporary junkyard solution that you swap out after you pass the inspection?

This was my first road rally and I had a great time. I learned a lot about road rallys and have a few ideas for next time.
Thanks to A&J for a great Saturday!

Taken from the Virginia Rally News dated Sept 19th:

SCCA has announced a partnership with the Great Race Rally Partners and will be promoting Great Race style regional rallies. The GR style involves no odometer and no calculations. GPS is not allowed; stock odometers are taped over. You're allowed only a speedometer and a watch - as many watches as you want, however. Cars are unlimited in regional events but model year restrictions exist for the National event and for the forthcoming Around-the- World Great Race.

i am extremely disappointed with myself for forgetting about the show :grr:
it looks like there were some really nice cars there.

I'm already excited!
How many cars do you think "100%" would be? What if you have no-shows or late cancelations?

i un-officially heard it was going to be on the 22nd of August, next Tuesday.

I hope it starts after 7pm.

i didn't see the shots of me the first time i looked and was a little sad.
but i was looking through them again and there i was!

Pasha - I wouldn't mind getting a peak at unoffical-preliminary times, ya know to qwench the thirst.

what about those people that haven't registered on the forum?
i think just first names would work....

The public results pages could have car numbers and no names.

I heard this same thing about two months ago but I can't remember where...maybe on another rumor mill, uhh I mean forum.

I'll miss you ES, bring it on CS!!

that was tons of fun and i learned a lot about my car and what i need to work on.

Got any recomendations for a good place to get my car aligned the way I want it?

thanks, grant :ouch: (in need of alignment)

What time is the school event starting? The registration page says 8am, is that when the gates open?

Have you tried looking in the classified section of miata.net? There is a set of 15" wheels listed in Reston, VA.

Also try the Richmond Craig's List.

After this last weekend's event I realize that my next purchase should be tires. This is my first season autocrossing and I will be running the stock wheels on my '94 Miata.

What tires would you recommend to a novice?

Is there a shop in the Richmond area that will heat cycle the tires for me? If not, how do I do it myself?

Thanks,
Grant
