      PDX = SCCA's version of Nasa's HPDE (Performance Driving eXperience) vs "High Performance Driving Experience", the SCCA is such an innovator.

      They're not making reference to Portland's godawful airport with their DMV reject security screeners.

                yeah, it is a bit scary sometimes. I have a spare pan on hand though...

                Those are undersized tires too.

                      Duplicolor bronze. I would not recommend this shit to anybody. I love the color, but the paint sprayed like crap. I even tried cleaning/changing the nozzles but it just splattered all over the place. Good enough for track only tires, but I think I will get them powdercoated in the future.

                        That's crazy. I've used Duplicolor's engine paint and the nozzle was fantastic in my opinion.

                            you can see the fender flare-age in this pic




                            After my off


                            Most of the BMW's in attendance. (E60 M5!!!!) The E36 328ic has a low compression 3.2 with a twinscrew pushing 14psi :eek


                            BTW my new Hoosier 225/45/15's are the shit. I could hang with ANYONE in the twisties!
                            The car looks good. But just question, I thought that verts were not allowed on the track any more or is this an auto X event?

                              I used black duplicolor paint on my winter wheels last fall and they also turned out great. Must be something about the bronze :shrug

                              Both cans were the same.

                              Verts are allowed with rollbars in most organizations.
