No, but Aeromoto & I have been trying to start something. There just haven't been enough people to get it started. He found a site that will host it, and Delta region scca will sanction it, but we need to put together a crew, cones & timing system to get it started. 
 

It sounds like yupididit is going to be pretty close too in the upcoming months, so if nothing else maybe the 4 of us can rent the site & just run our own private event. 

If I end up moving close we are 100% doing this.  North TX used markers that are sprung and padded and don't get knocked out of position and stop watches.  It's inexpensive and works well.  I will get more info about the pylons in two weekends.  If I move there, I will even have frequent 3 day weekends to go do course setup etc.  

Rallycross is the most auto fun per dollar I have ever seen.

You might be a hoarder(or maybe just a DSM owner) if: you save your dirty but pre-tagged baggies for disassembling your car. Again. 
 


 

I spent most of the day yesterday cleaning out & rearranging the shed & garage, and moving a bunch of Miata(and other random) parts to the shed, to free up space for DSM disassembly. I did spend about an hour this afternoon though starting to tag everything underhood(again) and removing the intake plumbing. 
 

 

Baby steps...

Dammit, this thing still hasn't fixed itself...

I'm waiting on a couple things for the RV & it was raining so I couldn't work on the exterior. Might as well work on the DSM. 
 

No major progress,  but I got the radiator out, which allowed me to get the turbo downpipe & intercooler inlet pipe removed.

Looking good Pete!  I can't wait to see this in action!

Thanks Jack! Sadly the motorhome has been taking up most of my time & budget, but hopefully we'll make it to the Challenge & back without it revealing any other major projects, so I can get back to the DSM.

Painting that turbo manifold was a very good idea!
