south carolina events
 

Started this thread for the south carolinians or any people coming to the state. Anyone planning on doing any autox, track days, etc?
I am trying to prep my car for something later this year and I thought it would be cool to meet up with some mt.netters! :party:

I will be at CMP in May for Lemons. Should be driving with teak Sputnik.

Thats quite the trip!

Only 3 hours. I will be driving 6 hours to crew at VIR at the end of this month.

Yea buddy!

Pretty epic. I need to start with some autox and then progress I believe. The car needs a lot of work though...

I should be at CMP for an HPDE in May. Probably going to do a CCR autocross or two when the car is finished. They have a TON of events at black lake this season.

I am waiting for SCCA to have the autox events at Stratford HS, mostly because it is a 5min drive from my house. That is about the furthest I will drive for an autox now. Track days have spoiled me.

Haha as I'm sure they will do the same for me one day. I need to revisit the schedule and see what they got when thats for sure.

Lars, my understanding is the neighbors complained of the noise and we will not be returning to Stratford HS.

Well then that makes me sad. Maybe the coliseum will host them here and I can goto those.

I know they still do some events at the coliseum in North Charleston.

I was going to mention some autocrosses up here with the CSCC, but then I saw your location. It's there for anyone closer. I don't think you're driving to the upstate to go around some cones.

There's a few with the SCR chapter of SCCA

I'll be at the SCCA event at CMP on the 28-29th (Buck Muse), but I heard the track day for this Friday was cancelled.

Auto-x at Black Lake this Saturday, actually.

I'll be at CMP in May as well. Trying to get my TT license that weekend, but I don't have a passenger harness :-\

Please see your location to your profile. Are you in Clemson area?

Just FYI I have miata meets at my house every day. You just open the gates to my back yard and BAM enough miata's to qualify as a meet.

Lol.

It'd be cool go do some meets, runs, whatever in the upstate.

Lol.

I'll be at the jzilla track day at road Atlanta on Monday, and I'm from the upstate.

Please add your location to your profile.

I'll be at Road Atlanta with NASA this weekend.

Updated my profile with info. I usually run with NASA but they jacked up their prices at road Atlanta this year. Jzilla is about 200 cheaper for a roughly equivalent amount of seat time. I'll miss that delicious barbecue though, and Jim is always entertaining.

Actually, flier I am pretty sure I met you at an event there last year and rode along with you one session. I have a white NA with a tan top..

Did Steve@Panic ever get that dyno he has been talking about. Would Columbia we a relatively central place for everyone to meet up at?

Rode with me in the car or along side on track? I've never had a passenger with NASA though, besides an instructor.

I thought about doing Jzilla, but I'm trying to get my TT license this weekend with NASA :party:

Yes. $120 an hour, but is open to doing dyno days for clubs.

Ah, that must have been someone else then. My mistake!

Also, what kind of times are you running? Mods? Top speed on back straight? Trying to get a baseline for how my car performs. Seems down on power still (112mph).

When do we want to do a SC dyno day? Worth waiting for the fall for temps to go down some?

Yes. Because I'll be back in Columbia in the fall. lol.

I'd be up for one this fall...just don't do it the weekend of the Sebrong ChumpCar race!

Panic is having a Tech Day for the Carolinas Miata club today. $50 for three dyno pulls. I might swing by. Doubt I'll do a dyno run with 100deg ambient Temps.

I wish I would have known earlier, I would have tried to go out.

I din't make it out there either.

Yea...more warning next time!

I need to dyno the ChumpLude at some point...

They didn't give much warning on Facebook either. Sorry.

We might be able to set up a testing/tuning day if there are at least a few of interested. I can check with Steve. A while back my brother and I were looking at renting the dyno for the day to tune my miata and his FFR Cobra. It would be cheaper than paying for 2-3hrs of dyno time each.
