No, the fancy aluminum radiator that came with the car started leaking so I replaced it with a new OEM-type. Haven't had a chance to actually drive it around the neighborhood yet to see if it leaks...twistedwankel wrote:You mean....got all the air out of the system? Right?

Anyone know what class a 2010 Roush 427R would land in? Kinda curious.

It's not listed in Stock/Street. I'd consider it a modified Mustang GT. That would start out in M2, and then bump up to M1 due to the high power engine swap. Just a guess.

Early Session is filling up QUICKLY. Only 7 openings.
Late Session is still pretty loose.
As expected, the Miata guys are starting to take the Early slots. If you're one of those Miata guys who is registered Late Session and thinking about switching to Early Session, do it NOW! With a bunch of people running early who "need" to be out on time, there's no way we're going to fudge our Early Session numbers and let more people in there. (wouldn't be inclined to do so, anyway) No, not even for you. Don't ask.

Good eye! Drew usually catches stuff like that in review.
We could just fix it at setup (we'd surely see it there), but I'll go ahead and update the map.
Thanks for pointing it out!

Okay, course fix is done. I didn't want to change the intended racing line through there, so rather than add a slalom cone, I just put a cone wall on the inside to constrain the eye and break the "rythm" of the slalom so that the next apex after the straight "makes sense". We might change the visual aspect a little at setup, but the key cones will stay pretty much where they are on the map. You know, the usual.

Should be able to find your SCCA class on the "stock class" website page here; there is a linked car list...98rock3tt wrote:Bone stock Focus SE. What class?

Given the ST focus is S3, probably should be S4 for non turbo.

If the tires are 195 or narrower, you could run it in S5.
