Rule change - 15" wheel allowance?

Expect to see a LOT of 2-driver Spec Miatas running in ITA next year.

And I think that is a GREAT thing for IT participation numbers.

Yes, please, if you can, get the wording fixed so us 13x6 ITC guys can run 14x6. As I'm sure you know, the VWs can't really be lowered in IT trim, so the 15s are really too big for us (IMHO). Plus, 14x6 OEM wheels (GTI snowflake, etc) are plentiful and cheap.

Thanks!

I was baffled by the comment that someone - ostensibly in a decision-making position - said that the spring had to be the stock diameter. That's just wrong and I don't know where in the hell it came from.

I could tell you the story of my fuel sample port and tech but that would really be off the subject.

Diane,

Are you perhaps confusing the threaded body issue with the remote reservoir issue?

Ah, who cares if it's off topic.

I've heard stories of every possible argument: You CAN'T have it in the engine compartment, you MUST have it in the engine compartment, you CAN'T have it in a high-pressure line, you MUST have it in the feed line from the tank, you CAN'T carry the hose in the passenger compartment, you MUST carry it in the passenger compartment. You name it.

Yeah...you hit the mark on this one...its comical...ask three officials and get 5 options!

Dick Patullo quips about the SCCA, "Ask an official, and if you don't like the answer, you asked the wrong official! Go find another and ask them!" ....or something like that!

Quite possible. Did that take place during the time I mentioned? Just call it temporary old-timers or something....
