I can only imagine it never happened, but who knows. A bitter enough loser with deep enough pockets... that engine will never perform the same!

Those are freebie Rivals from the 2013 season on some wheels I have for the STi. Just using those to DD. I have some Bridgestones on the way for the RPF1's.

Well, First National Event down... BRZ/FRS 9 out the top 10.. Bridgestone/Hankook Battle. we'll see what the BFG's are all about.
also 2015 Rules are up on SCCA.com.. Just a reminder about Helmets..

Quote:
4.3 DRIVER’S SAFETY EQUIPMENT
4.3.1 Helmets
Helmets meeting the following standards must be worn while on course: All helmets meeting the latest or two immediately preceding Snell Foundation standards (SA2015, SA2010, SAH2010, SA2005, SA2000, M2015, M2010, M2005, M2000, K2010, K2005, K98), SFI standards 31.1, 41.1, 31.1A, 31.2A, 41.1A, 41.2A or British spec BS6658-85 type A/FR are acceptable.
Formula Junior drivers must use helmets meeting the above, SFI 24.1
(Youth Helmets), Snell CMR2007 (Children’s Motorsports Restricted), or Snell CMS2007 (Children’s Motorsports Standard) specifications. Also, Formula Junior helmets must be of closed face design incorporating full face shields and chin bars. For maximum protection, helmets must fit securely and should provide
adequate peripheral vision. The chin strap must be securely fastened.
Loaner helmets should be available to vehicle occupants not having their own.
Its going to be a great year.. Lots of competition...

Bill

Snell 2015 won't be out on the market until fall-ish. Which is the reason why 2000 are still legal for this year.

Yup, pretty much my plan too. Also decide whether I want a full-face or stay with an open face one...

You kind of look like a badass with a full face helmet. You kind of look like a dorky tool in an open face. Last year was my first year with a full face and I think I'll stick with it. :p

Pretty sure the fact that you are driving around a parking lot in second gear covers the dorky tool part
