Here's a sample from the gallery:

 

I think I saw a video of this somewhere.

 

yes your right, he was the one who posted them.

adg016 is the driver of the car..

 

this is a cool pic

 

^ nice.

What suspension setup are you running

 

Custom Progress coilovers, custom Progress rear bar, custom K-Mac front camber plates.

All of the items will be available for purchase to all of you I'm sure. If enough guys want our suspension bits, I can try to organize something for you. We also have a custom 4 point strut tower brace, but that won't be for sale.

We will be doing new shocks with rates that won't be safe for the street, but a toned down version will be offered by Progress.

 

I would be interested in two pairs of camber plates, please PM me.

 

PM sent, but if others want them, please contact Vicky at Wild Pony Motorsports. Tell her Dan Gardner sent ya.

Thanks Dan!

 

it is always great to see someone racing scion tc out on the track!
so how did the race go?
what racing class are you running?
what performance upgrade have you done to your tc?

my brother and i race our tc here in phoenix arizona..
you can see my brother's last race video clip here.. he won second place for his class..

i saw your roll cage.. now is that something your racing club requires??
here is a picture of roll cage we did to my brother's tc.. pretty simple and yet it meets their safety..


anyway.. if you have any of your racing videos.. i love to see it..
our next race is this saturday... it is going to be practice run.. because car just got done with turbo kit, thanks to www.turbotoyotas.com, and need to see how it will handle...

see u around!

You guys wheel-to-wheel race a tC in a National series???

 

if you search around in the owners lounge you will find all the info you need, he posted everything you asked.

that wasnt meant to be mean either, im being nice

 

Just "meeting" safety standards is almost never good enough. My life is worth more than that. Plus a PROPERLY engineered roll cage is the backbone of the vehicle, allowing the suspension to do its job most effectively.

 

watching!

 

my brother, jp, he race with ASA racing club here in phoenix, arizona.. since we don't have major sponsorship, and everything is paid out of our own pocket.. things have been moving little slow.. so my car is almost finished.. and i will able to race with him wheel to wheel starting may... other than that.. i have been doing lot of open track so i don't get rusty..

right now, we are trying to build reputation and racing career... so within year or two.. we will have enough budget and experience for SCAA.. and move on from there..
so u can say we are taking one step at a time..

but.. yeah.. it would be great if you share your racing experience with us..
i like to see how others are doing.. and share ideas..

thanks

 

I've never heard of that organization. Doesn't look like they sanction any Nationally-recognized events. Is it just a for fun thing?

 

ummmm.... i don't think someone spends grip of money just for fun out on the track.. unless they are flity rich..

anyway..
they have regional racing club through out the states..
this is the ASA racing club we belong to http://www.speedtruck.com/
one of their major race they do is "speed truck challenge"..
but they also have cart racing, champ car, mini cooper series, stock cars, and so on..

as i said, we are in process of building racing career and reputation locally then move up to SCAA once we have enough budget plus sponsorships..

ummmm... maybe we are not in same page.. anyway.. good luck with your racing!! next year or two.. we will be heading out to california for some racing.. maybe we will see you then!!

take care..

 

All good. Feel free to come out and check out a NASA race sometime in California. We'll be at Nationals as well at Mid-Ohio in September.

I was DEADLY serious about cage construction. Don't take it lightly. I can't really tell in the photo, but it doesn't look like you have any front down legs nor adequate side impact protection. I also don't see a diagonal cross brace on your main hoop. Please consider doing this.

Are you really running with stock belts and a stock seat with a cage? That's a dangerous combination. Your seat without a back crush brace will not be able to withstand an impact against the cage, and you may be accordianed in the process. It is vital that all the safety equipment work together. You can't mix and match and expect the car to be safe.

 

picture you see is an old one..
i will post the new picture.. we are busy for this satruday's race..
so once everything is done, i will share some racing video and pics..

later
