So, I'm not supposed to sign up because I'm not "SOLO Qualified". What's the easiest route to attainment?

Yep, I'm all registered up. I'm currently beginning my quest to find aftermarket gauges to replace my stock cluster that I've got zip tied in place. I baaarely got through tech at my last autocross, so I don't want to be turned away from a track day over some silliness. So if anyone has any recommendations for good, simple, reliable gauges, I'd appreciate it.

Yeah, but holy hell are those expensive. I think I'm just going to work with what I've got.

I'll be there. Not with a twin obviously but with the Houston 86 crew. And I'll get to see my old brakes!

Will be bringing the beat to shit chumpcar.. slowest laptime buys the first round? (which means me I guess since all you fuckers are boosted and I am in a 170hp FWD econocar on 4 year old star specs and cut OEM springs...)

Dude if they fail you for that, then I am fucked. Our entire race car is held together with more zip ties than bolts. Including the OEM cluster AND all aftermarket gauges.

Autocross turning someone away from that is some funny ass shit.

This event will be such a total shit show I'm not sure I'd worry about tech much. Hell if it's like most track days I do, autocross tech is about 100 times more intense.... I am bringing a boot for the race car so it doesn't get stolen by the car show kiddies.. yes sadly I am serious.

Don't worry, I am NA right now, after replacing the blown-up turbo motor.
