from SCCA site:

Quote:

Solo1 has shifted into a higher gear and has moved over to the Club Racing Department and is now called Time Trials. Similiar to the widely popular Time Attack format, you can run your car on the dedicated road race circuits and not worry about rubbing fenders with your competitors. Time trials is the first step of a four tier program.

anyway, has anyone else ever changed their oil pan before? it's kind of a pain in the ***.

I've seen it done, and i've removed trans pans. On this one van the guys working on it had to jack up the engine from the balancer to get the pan off. Trans pans are a real PITA. You can't jus unbolt them and take them off cause they are filled with fluid with no way to drain it. I've always wanted to AutoX and me and my friend looked into it, but then i realizied my dad's car can't take the beating and my mom's car handles like a boat. And i'm stuck in India for most of the summer.

Congratulations on the purchases and all that! (even the oil pan, which looks like a pain in the ***.) Also, congratulations on your HCF birthday! Balloons and cake for all!

And thanks for answering one of my questions about autox. I'm planning on doing it with my brother, and when I saw that there was a ladies division I got worried that I would have to be in it, which I think had two girls in it last time I looked. Not so much what I want to do...
