Ya I get the whole CRS vs SWRS thing, in that i don't get it.

I mostly was picking which ever events in the CRS had the most stage miles / coefficients .

I did notice that there are some folk who would never
go to an RA event
go to a nasa event
go to a SWRS event


I have no insight as to their reasons. not sure if some peeps only do SWRS due to the $100-$300 in prizes for the SWRS per event, and the year end cash. also there's a team O'neal gift certificate up for grabs at the end of their series. (that did make me try and get to seed 9 a bit harder)

guess i'll hold out 2 hands
in my left hand i'll be waiting for rally sanctioning bodies and organizers to all come together in happiness.

and uhm let me put this glove on my right hand ... i have the feeling its gonna fill up faster

Since you are part of the organizing body, I'll ask this here.
Why? I speculate maybe lower sanctioning fees. Maybe even some subsidies since one thing the SWRC peeps seem to do well is get support from companies and people outside of competitors. And that it gives Mendo a series to be part of.

That's no secret. Jim didn't pay his sanction fee to RA last year, and they refused to sanction it this year unless he paid last year's debt in full first. That left him in the position of having to pay two years' worth of sanctioning at once, which he didn't have money for. How he managed to get himself into that hole in the first place isn't something I know - I wasn't on the organizing team last year. This year we managed to keep the budget in check. I haven't seen the final numbers on some bills yet, but I think it'll end up enough positive that he'll be able to pay off all but about $1000 of the outstanding bill. Of course that leaves no seed money for next year, but hey.

Yes, Mendocino was part of both the CRS and SWRC.

Sometimes it's like watching Christianity split into factions around here. tongue sticking out smiley -- (meant as humor!)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First_Council_of_Nicaea
The First Council of Nicaea (/naɪˈsiːə/; Greek: Νίκαια [ˈni:kaɪja]; Turkish: Iznik) was a council of Christian bishops convened in Nicaea in Bithynia by the Roman Emperor Constantine I in AD 325. This first ecumenical council was the first effort to attain consensus in the church through an assembly representing all of Christendom.[5]

Its main accomplishments were settlement of the Christological issue of the nature of the Son of God and his relationship to God the Father,[3] the construction of the first part of the Creed of Nicaea, establishing uniform observance of the date of Easter,[6] and promulgation of early canon law.[4][

The First Council of Nicaea was the first ecumenical council of the Church. Most significantly, it resulted in the first uniform Christian doctrine, called the Nicene Creed. With the creation of the creed, a precedent was established for subsequent local and regional councils of Bishops (Synods) to create statements of belief and canons of doctrinal orthodoxy—the intent being to define unity of beliefs for the whole of Christendom.

Derived from Greek (Ancient Greek: οἰκουμένη oikoumenē “the inhabited earth”), "ecumenical" means "worldwide" but generally is assumed to be limited to the known inhabited Earth,(Danker 2000, pp. 699-670) and at this time in history is synonymous with the Roman Empire; the earliest extant uses of the term for a council are Eusebius' Life of Constantine 3.6[8] around 338, which states "he convoked an Ecumenical Council" (Ancient Greek: σύνοδον οἰκουμενικὴν συνεκρότει)[9] and the Letter in 382 to Pope Damasus I and the Latin bishops from the First Council of Constantinople.[10]

One purpose of the council was to resolve disagreements arising from within the Church of Alexandria over the nature of the Son in his relationship to the Father: in particular, whether the Son had been 'begotten' by the Father from his own being, with no beginning, or rather, begotten in time, or created out of nothing, therefore having a beginning.[11][11] St. Alexander of Alexandria and Athanasius took the first position; the popular presbyter Arius, from whom the term Arianism comes, took the second. The council decided against the Arians overwhelmingly (of the estimated 250–318 attendees, all but two agreed to sign the creed and these two, along with Arius, were banished to Illyria).[12]

Another result of the council was an agreement on when to celebrate Easter, the most important feast of the ecclesiastical calendar, decreed in an epistle to the Church of Alexandria in which is simply stated:

Naw was more referring to Good ol Luther slapping list of complaints on a church door right around the same time as the advent of the printing press... and the beginning of struggles with the naunces of the typed word.

Oh, dear.....there you open the door to really understanding what's going on here.
But remember, that opened to door to over a hundred years of brutal warfare of which the Thirty Years War was a central part

But joking or not what Luther started is at the heart of this proliferation of Sanctioning bodies.

They've already won their class multiple times in Rally America and going to be the CHAMPION this year!

Ironically I had been trying to get in touch with their South American branch about bringing in some tires. Guess that won't be happening.

Evan Cline has been running them this year with really good results. He had some really fast times top 5 over all and lead a lot of SP class rallies with these tires. Im pretty sure he ran all of 100 acre and STPR on 8 soft compund tires and he plans on running LSPR on the same tires. I would think they would last a long time on a decently fast regional car.

Is he still racing? I thought he quit years ago.
Yeah, he's a decently fast regional driver so they're probably plenty for someone like him. smiling smiley

Yes he still rallies. He is on the Anders 3 a year program. Not saying he is the fastest guy out there but he is lots faster then most of us running and he hasnt had any issues with the tires. Wasnt trying to be little any body here with my comment its just he has ran the tire and is fast in the usa standards. You dont win regionals by minutes. Finish in the top 10 of nationals and not be a little more then decently fast.

You are correct thow vsc built sp cars with antilag $1800 active diffs 18k susp good brakes and unlimited tire budgets do beat his bone stock 05 sti on some stages by 1sec a mile. winking smiley

Yes, he is a very fast driver. Runs on 93 octane on his stock STI. He's proof you don't need to go crazy to do well in SP.

Anyways, I've talked with him on several occasions about the Maxxis tires and he has said they are honestly on par with BFG's, except much easier to mount without ripping up the bead. Says that the softs are like the BFG softs, while the hards are more of the BFG mediums. Would run 100AW with the softs if it was 40-50*, or LSPR, but anything other than that would be running the Maxxis Hards.

My BFG mediums have lasted for the last 2.5 years, maybe 3, on a ton of events. So I think I may be giving the maxxis hard's a shot. I already have a set of BFG softs that are waiting for LSPR or 100AW.
