IMHO, if you try to make absolute limits of some kind, then you need a positive way to enforce it. The only way I can think of would be to require that radar be used by a certified operator. You woul

Well how course speed is determined can be done in a variety of ways. A neat thing about the data loggers is that they are very accurate and show exactly where the speed took place on the track map.

Gosh, Let's stop being foolish with semantics - the course design violated the rule. Cornering speeds were faster than 45 mph. The course was therefore illegal and protestable. But how rare is this?

One could also argue that you are ALWAYS turning during an autocross ... therefore this guideline contradicts the mid to low 60's guideline. Well if you look at the URL I posted before, it shows edge

Very good question Mark. I don't have scientific data on this, but in my experience, a 75' wide slalom would produce 60mph slalom. This is very common at ProSolo's. I'm thinking 45mph would require s

Great point on insurance. I looked at a Lotus Elise autotest event video and was surprised at the layout and speeds. I posted about the matter and attendees explained that the insurance has all sorts

IMHO if the insurance companies are/get too concerned about our events (unlikely if we police ourselves, they are only concerned about claims and payouts, not measuring how fast we are going) they ha

So if we take out "R" tires and go to a "Street Tire" and keep the ST classes, we got a ??? Mess? I think the whole deal need to be rethought out. Not just the tires. The ST classes came about partia

So maybe ST is the problem, not R tires in Stock. Or the semantics. A Stock R, B Stock R, C Stock R, etc. come out of the current Stock classes. St can use A Stock, B Stock, C Stock, etc. Backs up my

I must have been napping and missed this. Which tire or tires is currently on the Street Touring exclusion list? I think it might be the Pirelli pzero corsa. They are a 60 treadwear r-compound. But O
