9thCivic Dragon IV Official Registration Thread

The "speed limits" on the roads are usually arbitrary, but one limit to absolutely heed to are the roads around Fontana itself. There's usually too many aimless old people, old people with bikes, kids, pets, clogger dancers, and flat our morons walking around without looking both ways.
 
Autox results are posted. Ryan is doing well for his 2nd time. He has good instincts behind the wheel. Wish I would have charged the camera better. I only have vids of my first few runs. He was only .2 seconds off my time. I may need some instruction, so he doesn't beat me from now on. Makes me feel good that he is doing so well. I am not sure he is ready to drive at the dragon. He is doing well, but think he needs more seat time before letting him loose.

He really wants to buy your car, Jason.

Maybe you need more seat time before hitting the dragon. :)
I think he will be fine on the dragon but would take him out without being in a group, that way he doesn't get the "gotta keep up" mentality or have someone in front to purposely pace him (not pull away)

Always need more seat time and better(younger) reaction time. Maybe one of the morning runs down to the overlook. Gotta scope the road for the return trip.

It's still for sale, I can adjust the price also. Given he's not competing against very modded BRZ / FRS, it can do well in STX, and it's an easy car to drive, neutral handling with just the right amount of oversteer or understeer depending on your driving style.

If I could figure out a way to transfer the title out of PA beforehand, I can come down to the dragon with the RS and leave "empty handed" if you know what I mean.

That auto-x course is long, I'd need at least 3 runs to figure it out and not mess up towards the end. The most recent event I placed 23rd out of 110 cars (4th in STX out of 12 cars). I could've done much better, but my head wasn't in the game that day (thinking about what car to replace the RS with), and after hitting a cone on my 3rd run basically just gave up. I'd rather drive something else.
 
Room is officially booked, headed down the 16th, leaving the 21st. I'll see y'all then.
