They have posted the results for TA last weekend.
The lap times are missing, but it's great to see to MS3's in the Top 3 of SSF.

Here are the lap times for that event, or just go to the time attack and then lap times link.

It looks like it but considering its one of the highest hp car there, its not really a surprise!

stis, rx7's, rx8's, wrx's, s2000's on what isn't really a huge power track isn't bad.... the margin is pretty large this time around

at least you have tread and an extra set of tires! I'm thinking I need a rain tire strategy...running on treadless 615's isn't a good enough an excuse for me to do as poorly as I did...see you there @ 9 Mat...

Yes, the MS3 has more power than some of the cars. But when you consider a lot of the civic's in SSF are running very close to the same times, I don't think they are that far off.

As for the lap times, the excuse may be used that it was that they ran in the rain and that the track was drying. I know my times where around 1:38 in the rain, so I don't know if the rain can be used as an excuse. I actually ran slower times in the drying conditions than rain because of tire setup!

Awsome of them to use your full names in a PDF format. Now the next time you file an insurance claim and the adjuster google searches your name and car description you'll be completely screwed! :bana

The point standings have also been updated. http://cscs.ca/content/view/45/70/

lol is terrance coming for the final event? We got to kick the teknotik's ass lol I need a top 3 finish....

You should come and check out some of the cars in the ss class. There are some beautiful track only race cars trailered there. The class rules are pretty vague as far as modifications. A turbo civic can make good power and be very light at the same time. There was a skyline gtr there that makes a ton of power and has the benifit of all wheel drive. Horsepower is not everything and front wheel drive is not exaxctly famous for getting the power down out of the corners, not to mention that the mazdaspeed 3 is horsepower restricted in the first 3 gears!

He is doing his best to make it. He is hauling ass to get his motor fixed, we shall see... I don't think that we have seen the best of Terrence yet. That SRT4 is awesome and that boy can drive! ML Blond, you are the secret weapon that has not gotten the results that you deserve. You always go way faster after the time attack is over, try doing the times that you do at the end of the day "DURING" the time attack! Btw, you are not allowed to follow me anymore LOL!:chuckle

[mleblond]

Btw, you are not allowed to follow me anymore LOL!:chuckle

so I have to pass you then :chuckle

Yeah I just need to be more prepared... I need a few laps to get me into the track before time attack

[Fobio]

I have a feeling it's gonna be a zoo on the 5th...

Well in most autoslalom events we don't post last names any more because a couple of guys lost their insurance this way. With WOSCA I go the extra step of posting the results as a JPG (really easy to do with excel) so that only high end forensic software could find even your first name on search.

I would suggest lying about your name (but still sign your real name on the insurance waiver). At the very least remove your plates. If it comes to it you can argue in court because my broker informed me that the car is not insured if it isn't plated, so you can argue you were out of policy.

yep a friend lost his policy because they saw a auto club sticker for solo 2....very stupid

great tip! Does anyone know a contact at CSCS that the recommendation could be made to?

[mleblond]

bid dad has some contacts there....our club in kingston does first name and car

[Big Dad]

Your suggestion was duly noted and will be implemented after the next round. First name and last name initial with model of car.
