2014 SCCA SOLO National Championship

ConeKilla · 09-10-2014, 05:56 PM

I'm late to the response here. But congrats to all for trophies and wins. All hard fought and won. I only got a chance to introduce myself to Jeff...and I didn't get to see you all run because heat 3 was when I had to eat and get the car ready for heat 4 for the DPL class. Im trying to get my hands on video from the DP car which I will share as the perspective is really cool.

I'm still not sure if I will be focusing on driving the 370z for next year or Focusing on ESP in my Mustang. I guess it depends on what the SCCA SEB does with each of those classes for next year.

This was my first full season with the Z and taking autox more serious, so I was hoping for at least top half. 38th of 55 kinda sucks. What sucks more is, the weekend before Nats, I beat the guy in 15th in Peru at the Hoosier Challenge. How does that work?

I did switch to 285 R-S3s from from 295 Rivals right before Nats as well. I haven't found the limit of the R-S3s yet, as they are much different than the Rivals. I have stock shocks as well, so I'm selling the Rivals to get some money back and will probably get Konis for next season

Also, how is it fair you West Coast and Southern guys get to autox year round?!

Hoping to see you all out there again next year...in BS maybe??

There have been 3 FasTracks so far with people asking for the car to move to BS. So far the response has been "We're not going to move any cars until after nationals", but now it's after nationals so I imagine the subject will be addressed at least once more in FasTrack.

I went ahead and put a plug in for the 370's to stay in CS. There are no national events this year where the 370 creamed the field. Aside from the beating you gave the field at crows landing this year...which doesn't help our case...maybe sand bag a little next time Jeff.

I went on to suggest that if they want to move the car out of a class it should be STR to STU since in ST form there would not be much difference between the 350 and 370.

If your an SCCA member and a Z driver I encourage you to take 5min and speak up.
