It's definitely some kind of sloshing/uneven ground safety mechanism and it's a total trip running an event with the meter at negative quarter tank. You need to track your fuel consumption across an...

Pretty much the goal for STX. 1/4 tank = sweet spot and if you end an event with the gas light coming on as you finish then you've hit it just right. For street I'd run it 1/8 tank.

Empty before every event and put it back in after. Takes less than 30 seconds to do each. You've all known this for a long time. I've had it measure at 2567 on the SCCA scales after 3rd runs. Could...

Yes Crow's Landing in California. You're going to pull higher Gs on concrete and increase your likelihood to fuel starve.

When I had a co-driver for several years we tracked it at about 0.3s difference for a 200lb passenger. So every 1/4 tank of fuel you're around 20lbs or 0.030s. In street class these cars can run a...

Did they say how many for the U.S.?

I would take this color (as orange is my wife's favorite) since it's going to be almost exclusively a trailered race car.

Trophy? No problem. Top drivers in GR86s will trophy at nationals easily. My guess is the spread in the trophy positions will be about a 2:1 ratio of ND-2 to ND-1/GR86.

Watching at Crow's I can't see any way they will compete in STR at Nats. Those courses were fast and flowing if they can't excel there over the ND they're not going to at slightly tighter courses.
