damianq · 10-14-2001, 05:19 AM

I am there, pending school responsibilities. What am I talking about. I WILL be there, bringing spectators/fans too. Hope there's snow by then. Keep us informed, thanks BTW.

direwlf · 10-14-2001, 11:09 AM

Got costs now too

$15 for Calgary Sports Car Club members, $20 for non-members. Classes are still being determined.

markus · 10-14-2001, 11:39 PM

Why do you guys insist upon choosing dates that I can't make it. GRRRRR

Oh well. I'll see if I can rearrange things, but I'm not too optimistic.

damianq · 10-15-2001, 06:04 PM

Chin up mate, anything can happen... hopefully we will see you there. If not, we'll tell ya all about it.

HOK · 10-20-2001, 08:51 PM

yea! I want to go... how do i get involved.... also do i need a special licence?

just wondering...

HOK

direwlf · 10-20-2001, 09:29 PM

Just show up on the 17th with a helmet and be ready to go

No special license or anything required, just yourself and your car and your helmet

HOK · 10-20-2001, 11:34 PM

coooooooooooo thanks...

direwlf · 10-21-2001, 01:03 PM

Have some info on car classes now too. This is going to be pretty simple. 2wd cars less than 2L displacement, 2wd cars greater than 2L displacement, and any AWD/4WD vehicles. Note, these classes aren't set in stone, they will probably change and be refined along the way.

HOK · 11-01-2001, 04:33 PM

Just wated to bump this...

I'm READY! high suspension and everything hehehe

schlong8 · 11-01-2001, 08:20 PM

Sorry guys, but it looks like i CANNOT make it for the RallyX. I just have to many projects and midterms coming up that i can't afford to make a trip to calgary on that weekend.
I really wanted to go too. When's the next one??

HOK, what suspension were u running before and what did u put in now?

direwlf · 11-01-2001, 08:22 PM

Fear not chris, dates haven't been set but there are going to be at least 2 more before the winter is done

HOK · 11-01-2001, 09:05 PM

I had tein medium on kyb struts... now i have legecy L springs on the rear hehe took them off of GTBguy...

But the fronts are stock RS's...

raised up...

schlong8 · 11-01-2001, 09:48 PM

WHEW, thanx Warren. Keep me informed.
I think i'm going to leave my suspension setup the way it is for winter. I did rally w/ it at teh Rally School in April and it was okay, i might have bottomed out a couple times, but oh well. The muffler is nicely scrapped on the bottom. If i'm not satisfied i can always swap the stockers in....if i'm not too lazy.

wrxcanada · 11-01-2001, 10:52 PM

OK. Now I know what an autocross is, what is a rallycross?

Darrell

HOK · 11-01-2001, 11:13 PM

rally cross....
its an autocross on anything but pavement...

hhhee dammit... my 5 zigen is scraped too... maybe i need to protect it...

Wrxtasy · 11-02-2001, 11:17 AM

How ruff is the course?

Do we need skip plates?

I don't think I am brave enought to bring the rex... I am thinking I will bring my 323...

direwlf · 11-02-2001, 03:16 PM

Course is the relatively smooth gravel parking lot of race city. Shouldn't need a skid plate.

tulit · 11-02-2001, 05:24 PM

I agree with warren that its fairly smooth.

But MAKE SURE YOU GET MUD FLAPS (unless you don't care about your paint of course)...

HOK · 11-03-2001, 01:58 AM

So its like a back alley type of gravel right???

I only have front flaps... will that suffice... mine ripped off since the car was so low...

Man i hope it snows...

tulit · 11-03-2001, 09:37 AM

HOK, its like most gravel parking lots/alley. Medium sized rock.

If you don't put rear mudflaps on, theres a possibility that it can damage your muffler. This happened to my old muffler. Small dents all over the one side from the tire kicking rocks up.

You can go to canadian tire and buy some universal flaps and just stick them on. Doesn't matter if it doesn't look good. Just might want some protection for the one day. Rip them off again at the end of the day.

If it snows and leaves a good layer on the ground, well, then I dont think you'll have to worry.

I actually hope it snows too. A lot easier on the tire

HOK · 11-14-2001, 08:53 PM

just bumping this... and i have to go to the santa claus parade as a dinosaur it ends at 3 i think... are you guys going to go for the entire day???

direwlf · 11-14-2001, 09:18 PM

9am to 5pm. ONly three more days, can't wait

Wrxtasy · 11-16-2001, 01:46 PM

1 more sleep ... Can't wait..

Along the same lines there is a group of guys in edmonton planning to have regular "Ice Dice's" at telford lake this year.

They are basically solo's run on the ice race track. Let me know if you are interested and I will keep ya posted.
