You don't need a roll bar to do SCCA autocross, all you need is a Snell certified helmet, and no fluid leaks and you're good to go.

c355n4 posted:Not totally true, NJ state law requires convertibles such as miatas have a rollbar that clears the top of the driver's helmet. So it can vary. Best bet is to ask someone in your local organization. Oh sorry my bad, I didn't know that it varied by state/region. That's just the way it is at the Indiana events I've been to.

Tonight I finally saw the times from the Autocross on Sunday, and found out that I came in 34th/75 people overall and got 3rd/27 people in the novice class. I'm pretty happy with that for only being my second autocross ever, and my first autocross in a FWD car. I should definitely be able to improve on that without needing to modify my car.

Phone posted:It's kind of funny when you see mods people at autocross. In the top 3 raw times this past weekend, #2 was a CS Miata and #3 was a GS Civic Si. It's all about the driver and to a lesser extent the tires. All of the top 20 people at this autocross had pretty heavily modified cars, none were in stock classes. Most of the mods were suspension related though as far as I know. You're right though, the driver and tires are more important than the car. I was pretty confused with the Miatii at this autocross though, the fastest Miata at this event was only 3 places and .321s faster than me. The fastest car at the event was a SMS class 2006 WRX STI which got 53.194s and I got 60.158 in 34th place for reference. Brain Issues fucked around with this message at 04:53 on Apr 21, 2011 |
