Developed specially for GS competitors
Get your order in before supplies run out! I know you all are hurting from the index change (in case you haven't heard - it went from .782 to .795).
This was sent to me by a local competitor. Honestly, I think Rick Ruth was overcompensating on this one, but it is what it is, and we will just have to run with it. I think it is tough, but I don't think it is impossible to overcome, and at least it will shut everyone up about the "soft" index.

Thank goodness here in SFR Region we don't rely on PAX for year end points. The only thing it is good for around here is the street tire index classes. Contrary to what D. Shield may think as a "local" competitor I don't mind changing my tires to "R's" at an event. This is a racing sport, not a trip to the grocery store.

In the D.C. Region we don't do ANY street tire classes except for the National. With the exception of the Ladies class, I don't see why anyone would rely on PAX for the year end. The wife is not driving a Cooper S anymore, so we're not worried about that (she won the championship in 2005... ).
However, I think H Stock will still be a great PAX for L1 and local Ladies classes, particularly since there is still money involved at the National level.
I personally feel that the bump should have been maybe .009.

I received my tube from the Subaru guys on Monday:

It has not been very soothing or cooling at all. I do smell kind of funny now.
And of course my region has decided to run a PAXed Pro class for 2006. We'll be running the Pro class and using the new '06 PAX at our event this Saturday.

AH HA!
I was wondering when someone was going to get this thread going again.
LOL!
BTW, we are 2 events into our local series and......
Kudo's to Jake at event #2:
http://www.wwscc.org/event_results/2...06-2.html#OPAX
Glen did pretty well at event #1:
http://www.wwscc.org/event_results/2...06-1.html#OPAX
I agree, that so far, the tours seem to be ok for the Mini's if you care about PAX #'s.
It is my guess that the GS Mini's are going to just fine in pax for the rest of the year too.
Too bad RR lowered the number .001 after all the screaming/yelling..
Locally, I am going to need all the help I can get! LOL!
In all seriousness, I think the # is close now. I would guess, from what I have seen with the new #'s, that lowering the pax for next year is NOT going to happen. Will it get harder? Hard to say.
I think that there is a good chance that the # could go up slightly for 07.
FM(who is hoping his new car in CS is going to do ok in PAX)

Or the surfaces do not work well for Mini's set up for asphalt....
My quickie math says that CP whooped up on everyone.
Beat Kevin in SS(stock class p1 pax?) and the rest of the stock classes by 4+ PAX seconds????
WOW! what's up with that?
Course or concrete surface or both???
There was some good drivers in Atwater. Not used to seeing such a spread.
