So It doesn't go off of events. It is a checklist of skills and knowledge that your in-car instructor evaluates you on. Once you meet those gates, you can move to the next group. Every region is a little different and every in-car instructor is as well. What Nick posted are probably pretty...
It's actually easy in a stock car. They now use a hp to weight equation.
Horsepower: While my stock rwhp level was 370rwhp, my adjusted rwhp through the equation is 340 or 345(don't remember off the top of my head).
Weight: Weights are taken with driver in the car. For light cars, you...
If you want to win, you have to run A7's. Most of the w2w guys run A7's as well. They don't ever fall off completely. They just get a greasy and slow down a couple seconds... which are generally still faster than an R7. I've had about the same amount of used between the A7 and the R7. The...
I had the same perception of TNiA as Impulsed7 and have avoided TNiA until recently as well. I've heard stories from TNiA from a couple years ago of it being a bit of a shit show. They have some practices that I don't necessarily agree with. For example, you can self-select what run group you...

I got mine from beefcake for a great deal back in 2015. Just looked at it last week and is still holding up fine.
I did TNiA last week at Heartland Park Topeka. It was fun. It was also $50 so it was hard to pass up. It's a little more hard of a pill to swallow when you are talking $150 for 3 sessions, but there is almost always a $25 off code. I think Sock did the last TNiA at MSR Cresson and can tell...
That's a pretty good rule of thumb. Sometimes TT is 15 minute sessions. Sometimes you get 5 sessions, sometimes 4 sessions. This is done for several reasons. Generally speaking, you grid by fastest to slowest cars. Within 2-3 laps, the fast cars have caught the slow cars(low hp cars, not...
You have to be signed off into DE3. At that point, you will complete a NASA TT check ride through the regional TT director. Once you pass your check ride, you get a provisional TT license. Once you complete 2 events incident free, you can apply for a hard-card, annual license(again, requires...
With NASA, they do allow it. You'll both have to pay an entry fee and you'll essentially have to split the sessions daily. Check with your specific NASA region time trial director as they all run it a little differently.
If you have any more questions, ask away. I'm not an expert, but I've...
Hey Rob, my comment was in reference to Higdomimator being at HPT last Saturday(I was there the following Thursday), where he first reported the issue. Sorry, should have been more clear. It reminded me when I saw his comment about Hallett. I guess I'm lucky to have not experienced fuel...
I did the SCCA track night at Heartland Park Topeka tonight. It was a fun time. The track has new pavement and was really slick.

My driver side half shaft popped out in on the third tap with a pry bar without issue. My passenger side fought me tooth and nail. I tried everything. Twisting around, tapping in to make sure it wasn't hung, 42in pry bar, 3/4 extension, hammer, bigger hammer, etc... I purchased the axle...
