[BROKAGAIN] – Mid-Season SitRep

Situation Report: I suck, but I think I’m getting better. I have had 3 events with 3 different clubs since we last spoke. The first event was on May 29th at Lake County Fairgrounds with TSSCC, the next was June 18th at Route 66 Raceway with Chicago SCCA, and the…

#GRIDLIFE2016

Where to start… This past weekend was even crazier than last year. Gridlife 2015 was rather nuts, and I would say the amount of precipitation that weekend could be defined as torrential. This weekend was dry; albeit a bit hot, and 10x crazier. We arrived (I carpooled with a friend)…

[BROKAGAIN] – Cone Carnage at Event 2

May 16, 2016 ♦

Featured, Race

♦

This past weekend was Event 2 for the Chicago Region SCCA. It was the first event with the new upgrades to setup (alignment, brakes, wheels & tires). Let’s just say, it was amazingly different. The car was a million times more responsive on all fronts, and with the loss in…

With the rust (see also: lack of talent) shaken off, and a couple events under my belt for this season I’m looking ahead to a planned track-day on May 27th at Autobahn Country Club. Huzzah! I wanted to also start exploring more types of events like road rallies, lapping days,…

…and we’re back. It’s only been about 3 months since I gave a recap of Season 1, but race season is in full swing and it’s time for a Brokagain update. While I’m writing this it is May 6th, and I have finished the first event of the season for…

Wow! I’m without words. I’ve gotten some really positive feedback from y’all on the last post in the series, and all I can say is thanks for all the kind words. This series will be back for the 2016 season / foreseeable future so if you would like to see…

[BROKAGAIN] – Mid/Post-Season Catch Up Pt3

January 6, 2016 ♦

(don’t worry it is the last part) We left off at CR SCCA Event 5 at Lake County Fairgrounds and a finish I was relatively pleased with. The event that followed wasn’t until a twin weekend (back at Lake Count Fairgrounds) with TSSCC on September 26th/27th. Saturday I was rather…

[BROKAGAIN] – Mid/Post-Season Catch Up Pt2

Still catching up here, but I left off with our event in Rantoul. We (the Tri-State Sports Car Council) were trying to make an effort to put the Tri back in Tri-State by not only visiting Wisconsin at the end of the year, but by taking a trip to Grissom Air…

[BROKAGAIN] – Mid/Post-Season Catch Up Pt1

Race

The beginning of the season went well. In the last installment of [BROKAGAIN], we covered the cost to autocross when I took the [BROKAGAIN] FRS to its first event. So this series of posts will cover the events since then and bring us up to date since that first outing…

#GRIDLIFE2015 – What is GRIDLIFE?

Drift, Race

With the inaugural GRIDLIFE being last year, I was all too excited to get the opportunity to cover it this year as it happens to be the first year of their new ‘Track Battle” time attack series. What started just over 15 years ago as some Honda enthusiasts who decided to set…

[BROKAGAIN] – The Cost to Autocross – First Race in the FRS

If you follow my instagram account or if you know me personally then you will know that I sold the [BROKAGAIN] STI because, well, it was broke… again. Compression low on CYL4, eating a quart of oil every 500miles, the crack on the turbo you saw in the first article,…

Thanks for following along with me on my 2015 autocross (and more) season. This post is a completely optional step when getting into racing, but I thought it may be something people are interested in learning about. In this series I’m going to discuss working to get sponsorship for your…

This is going to be the first in a year long series about the actual costs to race. I’ve been autocrossing my 2005 Subaru STi in local clubs including Chicago Region SCCA, and Tri-State Sports Car Council. This year I plan on running full seasons with both clubs along with…

The 2014 Lake Superior Performance Rally (LSPR) is the first event I’ve gotten the pleasure to cover for Build Race Party. I’ve covered several Rally America events as a spectator, but this was gong to be different and I could barely contain my excitement. LSPR takes place in Houghton, Michigan…
