Thanks Mark,

That I was hoping for, plus the valuable resouce of you club guys here in Rennlist never fail to help, thanks for all for that!

OK, so can you act as PCA's head instructor and sign me off..?

I actually checked PBOC & PCA calendars and it seems I'm probably able to squeeze ~8 days for this year meaning with last years 4 I should be able to have 12 but what if I fall short (i.e. only 10 or 11 days)?

 

Petu,

I have a feeling the powers that be could find a way to include you. We need you aboard. PCA has races coming up at VIR, Daytona and Roebling. Followed by the 48 Hr at Sebring next February.

40! is that human years or the amount of times you have been hit in the head by a hockey Puck ....

 

The silly stuff would need to be done for sure. The only part I think you could argue is the alum hood (because of the crash). But you would definitely need to do the small washer bottle, no hood shocks, hood pins, radio block off, lightweight glass, etc. The other ones I thought of that would be hard are no undercoating and the lightweight wiring harness (I think the 993RSCS had one of those).


How underweight? If it was 150 lbs or more underwight, I could buy the 2:24.9

 

Even though I have most of the above, I'm thinking NASA may be a better fit, or possibility, for my car. That wiring harness and the seam welding are the tough ones! Thanks again for your knowledge and help Colin.

 

I would like a rule that specifically gives the steward the discretion to make a "no call" in 13/13s at the track. It seems they are forced to make a call one way or the other and always do. In other cases, the original "adjudication" takes months (if it's that difficult to assign fault, then a decision may not be necessary). In addition, that two drivers with insignificant rubs can go to the steward together, if they agree, and request a "no call."

 

+1

I will go out on a limb here and say that almost all of us 944 racers that know each other here in the SE would walk up to the steward and say "that's racing....can we go now?"
IMHO, Single car incidents and minor rubbing should be dismissed if both drivers agree.

 

The issue with this will be one driver may get intimidated by the other to say "no call" when in fact they are not happy.

 

Yes! If people allow themselves to be intimidated into doing so, maybe they need to find another activity?

 

+1


Or you can have very minor damage that no one cares about, but both drivers get a 13, and have everyone not happy.

 

Also true.

 

No, I think the danger is that you don't want to go along, and ask the steward to make a call, and he hits you with the 13 even though the other guy is at fault.

 

I would never start with Daytona, never driven there (except for few parades)...
Sebring is another thing and PBOC has ton of stuff down here so that would be a good place to start.

Unfortunately it's human years... If you count the "mileage" (hockey pucks, dirt bike chrashes etc.) I'm much more than that... I need a body off restoration...

"Silly things" makes perfect sense since they want to include everything & most of that is simple, washer bottles & whatnots. But as already said, wiring harness, seam welding, aluminum doors (easy to do but very pricey!) are tough...

Weight was quite a lot underweight, I think between 2850-2900 lbs + me (180 lbs) so around 3030 lbs which is just about 150 lbs underweight.
Although there's things that should make my car little but faster: euro tranny, LWFW, LSD, Motons (I guess I should also replace the original bushing, maybe change toe links etc.).

 

The RSCS was never a seam welded car, no need to do that. Radio was an option, glass change is not mandatory as the RSCS's out there rarely have thin glass in them after one gets broken, usually replaced with the far cheaper normal glass. My understanding is You can use a normal hood/doors under current rules, aluminum is not mandated any longer...
