I don't think I've managed to hit my horn yet... that's my next trick :D (drive)
 
Crazee D hooked me up. He was going to install it in his ride. I pried it away from him (j/k...thanks alot bro).

Both the Mini and I were running HS.

Getting my tech inspection, I found out that a ground kit puts you in STS. Guy was cool and said it didn't really matter, but just thought I should know.
i'm in STS because of my intake. but now i've got all kninds of mods so it helps to keep me somewhat competative in my class, though i lack the get-up-and-go of other cars in my class.

I don't see how the cooper-s could be paired with the p5 in HS. huge power difference.

This was just a regular Cooper... not an S. There was an S running in GS with DOT slicks... got fastest pax of the day. Awesome driver.

I really want to stay in HS so I can be somewhat competitive. It's the only reason I haven't gotten an intake. I'm going to get a K&N panel filter and (SCCA legally) mod my intake box to get the most out of it. I'll also try to do everything I legally can in HS, as far as other mods go.

Do you know if we're allowed to do suspension mods that came stock on the MP3? The suspension would be stock mazda... therefore "stock"... but I'm guessing that since in theory, those parts weren't offered on the P5, it would make them "illegal" for stock class.

ok that makes more sense with the plain jane cooper. as far as i know you can't do suspension in HS. you can however change tires as long as they stay stock size. look for some sticky rubber. also check scca.org for official rules as to the mods you can do. I knind of wish i had tried to stay in HS but i wanted to do these mods anyway. All i have to do is finnish the exhaust and then i will have a chance of matching the faster(more powerful)cars.
 
Just went over the SCCA rules, which actually say a ground kit is legal as long as it benefits the sound system and nothing else.

Now I know that a grounding kit maybe smooths out your idle and nothing more... but at least it's legal for Stock class.

Looks like I could run Tokico's and still be stock... hmm...
 
Had to drive mine an hour away to the dealership, since they screwed up the VIN and we had to redo the paperwork. While I was there, I had them tighten up the door handle.

so nothing too fun!
 
this was actually the other day...

installed my custom rad shroud - many thanks to Yeloprofan

comments always welcomed :)
