No Speed for me yet. Going to let that lie a couple of years or until I can talk the wife into me getting one which ever come first. Well BMW,Porsche,Alfa,Lotus clubs are all open .I think my first one will be the BMW one in April. Not sure yet

 

[chrio]

I'll go to Either Lotus day on Aug 31st or BMW on Aug 3rd. That way I can tell my wife it is my b-day gift. :goodjob:

Yehaw! The fastest MazdaSpeed3 turbo set the 2wd records at PIR stages held on the track at Oregon Trail Rally last weekend. Also did some racing around the perimeter roads at PIR. 2 stages were pretty much a lap a PIR. Some of the stages there we ran part of the track in the opposite direction. Way different. Enjoy pics.

PIR shortcut

Forgot to mention, if you ever get to race around the service roads at PIR like we did last weekend, be sure to take our shortcut we made.

Thank you so very much for the pics. I'm so pissed I had to miss this . Saw a few of your fellow ralliers up in the coast range on Saturday. I can't wait to take my Speed on the track Next month. Congrats and good luck this year !

Nice shot.
So are you folks running a front mount intercooler ? Just some of the pics look like it
Also what happened to the stock wheels you may have had ?

Yes, FMIC.
We got a 'shell in white', just the body so no stock wheels.

Awesome pics of a beautiful car.

I'm drooling. That sounds like it was a lot of fun. Can't wait to chase Lance around the track soon.

Weird with no VIN. I remember back in 95' (SCCA Times) when I rallied I thought your car needed to be able to license but I guess it depened what class you were in also.

Yes, because all rallycars transit on public highways, they are registered and licensed.

Friday May 25th Lotus Track day ....... Anybody gonna make it ? At least come out for a ride (come on Josh it won't be that scary- tell work you are going to do some research to see how the MS CAI works on the track )

 

[TheSpuddy]

Those pics are awesome! Have yet to head over to PIR but maybe with all these events I may have to.

Forgot about this, how much is it, $120? I'm doing the Freeks Coast run that weekend, the trip will cost me two bills easily.
I need to pick a track day that you can go to.
