Also, when you get coils, go through the dealer. Advance Auto was charging me $140 for one and it would take a week. The dealer charged me $110 and i picked it up next day before they opened.

Depends on the group who organizes the event, SCCA rules are a good reference: https://neohioscca.com/solo/rules/

They honestly don't care. Like i said, they do follow SCCA rules, but helmets they're not too big on, you just need one. They run one car at a time, so if anything you'll either hit a wall or go into the ocean.

the autocrosses around here are pretty much like this- if it is solid, not broken, hard, fits on your head and maybe says DOT somewhere on it (though they don't check) you're good to go. I used an old DOT shorty open face helmet at my last autoX.

What's the trick to getting accepted to join the FB group? I found a Tampa86 business card on my car and requested to join the group, but never got accepted.

You have to sign away your first-born son, that's all.

Nope, no first born sons. However, younger sisters are always appreciated!

(err... well... within reason)

If anyone is in southwest florida, I have a crank pulley tool if you are changing out the pulley. It's a really simple job, I will even help you do it for free.

I'm in Homestead most of the time, but i'd help out on my free time with you guys. I've done a bit to my car, so i'm somewhat familiar with the construction of our cars.

I am also looking to go to autoX / Track days and it would be nice to have some people who can help work on each others cars should anything go wrong at an event.
