How much insurance do you guys have to buy? What kind of local permits are involved?

10/26/2009 6:17:01 PM

I don't know...

I'm just a member/participant/racer

10/26/2009 7:34:22 PM

Need a cage, right?

10/27/2009 7:23:55 PM

nope, need a daily driver with street tires, working seat belts and stock suspension

most you'll be doing is 45 or 50 mph, and that's only in short spurts

a cage is nice, but not a requirement

10/27/2009 7:31:43 PM

hell yeah ill be there in the bimmer

10/28/2009 1:14:03 AM

nice

10/28/2009 2:16:00 PM

I would like to do this...but alas, I have no POS to take. Only thing I got now is the Accord, and it's my DD. Not a snowball's chance in hell...

10/28/2009 2:20:36 PM

take matt's car

10/29/2009 1:11:18 PM

Is trailering the car in OK? I'm not putting tags on this thing.

I've also got sheet metal covering the radiator. Any problem there?

Car is missing a few fenders now(damn trees jumping out in front of me) and has no muffler but is otherwise stock.

10/29/2009 1:23:19 PM

what about an SUV? i see nothing in the rules that says only cars can compete??

10/29/2009 2:57:39 PM

^^ from what i know, as long as the wheel bearings / tie rods / ball joints dont allow the wheels too much play, i.e grab the tire at 3 and 9 and check for play, then also at 6 and 12 and check for play, you should be good
also, the battery tie down has to be sturdy, and no blatant visible leaks

that's pretty much all that is needed to pass a tech inspection **from what i've seen**

^ SUV's are allowed from what I've been told, but I've never seen one at a rallyX before

I can put you in touch with the RallyX President and VP to know for sure, if you're serious

let me know, i'd be happy to help

the more the merrier

Well, my back tires have so much negative camber that they scrub the shock towers. Too many jumps.

10/30/2009 12:15:04 AM

you should be fine

come on out

10/30/2009 12:23:38 AM

11/22/2009 10:40:18 PM

How did it go? I wish I could have made it.

11/23/2009 10:05:13 AM

with what? the dually?

11/23/2009 3:07:09 PM

slick as snot out there, especially on worn out street tires

i was first in the AWD street tire class after the morning session, 5th overall.. but i missed a gate in the afternoon session and got a 55 second penalty, which knocked me out of trophy contention

However, Kourosh and I both wrapped up 2nd place finishes in the season points in our respective classes.

He's running rally tires and I was running street tires, both on 2.5RS's





This is Kourosh racing, you can see my car in the background, green with gold wheels
