Alright, so next weekend, June 10/11 I'm going to need some help! I've gotta pull motors and transmissions out of two of the Zs. I'd love some help, so I'm willing to provide food and beverage for anyone who comes out to help. Anyone game? I won't be putting anything back into the cars just yet, but hope to have the turbo motor ready for ...

I got a few details from Andy on his way back from the test and tune he took the car to this weekend at Grissom. I'll try to do a full writeup later in the week, but the basics of what all has changed include. Hawk HPS pads up front instead of HP+, which apparently solves our Ice Mode problems. Run a full tank of gas, instead of completely ...

Andy's got the Z for the weekend. He's off to a Test and Tune to try to figure out if we can work around the ''flaws'' that the Z has. He's having a special guest driver come in to help with the tuning of the car. He's got 4 front sway bars, new Hawk HPS pads, and 4 new 710s to play with. Here's to hoping he can figure out our ice mode ...

Look out, it looks like an RX-8 won't be filling my driveway anytime soon. I'm picking up another Z next week... Details to follow! Posted from SCCAForums.com

It's been a long few weeks for me. It all started with the St. Louis region driver's school three weekends ago and culminated today with the Walnut Ridge ProSolo. The driver's school went well, the Walnut Ridge National Tour went even better. The Walnut Ridge ProSolo though was far from good. The event itself was great, organized and run very ...

We got into town early this afternoon. I ended up filling up with gas before I got out of St. Louis, that was a mistake, 200 miles later I still have a half a tank. So I drove the car to the hotel tonight rather than leaving it at the event site, needed to burn off as much gas as I can before tomorrow. We got setup and Andy did the novice intro ...

The first Cone Clinic was held today at the first day of the Walnut Ridge national tour. A great thanks goes out to the Hollis' for instructing all of the drivers today. We each got 12 runs, had a blast and a great time getting the rust out from almost 6 months off! We start at 9am tomorrow. As last year, the town has welcomed everyone with open ...

In a few short hours we'll be departing St. Louis for our first autocross of the season. Well, it'll be my first autocross, Andy (my codriver) already has a few events under his belt! He's an Evolution instructor, so he's had the luxury of getting plenty of seat time already this year. We're headding to Walnut Ridge this afternoon to be ready for ...

I spent this morning with Steven at www.tuxedoparkracing.com fixing my 03 Enthusiast Nissan 350Z. Sometime early last year we, Andy and I, had a seat bolt fail, driver's side rear. We had to provide a quick fix and rigged together a drywall anchor to try to get the seat to stay in place, we were out of town with limited tools and only a home ...

Since I seem to post this information on the web over and over I figured I'd solidify it here. The following information is how Andy and I run my 2003 Nissan 350Z Enthusiast model in SCCA Solo Competition in the B Stock Class. ShocksDA Konis available from Nissan USA Motorsports Division(SA Konis in the garage just in case Full Stiff (r)) Front ...

Is anyone else getting excited about the 2006 Autocross Season? I know I'm pumped! Though I have to wait two more months before my first scheduled event, which happens to be the Walnut Ridge National Tour. I think I'll need to hit an event somewhere in the Midwest to get the autocross rust out. Though the week before WR I'll be at the club ...
