Forum will no longer be utilized!

After facing many challenges with utilization of this forum for many years, the board voted on the evening of 1/12/2026 to stop use of the forum in favor of the modern, more effective means.

Most of our general club organization will now be coordinated via Discord and results from our events along with schedules and announcements will be hosted on our main alscca.net webpage.

What does this mean for the old forum? Well, in short we are going to stop using it. This has been reviewed several times in the past few years, and there has been a desire for some of more tenured members of the club to have the historic content preserved. In an effort to preserve this content, it was discovered that we could not simply export the content to be placed in a modern website. This forum will now become an archive only forum and will not be monitored. If you wish to preserve any of the content, this is your time to search the pages to find it. There is no promise that this content will remain available forever with the fragile nature of this forum.

    Independence Day Safety Tip

    I just got home after an ambulance ride to the emergency room because I wasn't using safe methods to change tires.

    "I'm not getting under the car, so I don't need jack stands." is a lie.

    I slipped the Miata off the jack when I pulled off the left front, and managed to trap my hand between the tire and the fender. Luckily, I had the phone with me, and was able to call for help.

    Don't be complacent. Even a little girly car hurts a lot when it's parked on your hand.

    Nothing broken besides my ego and a bit of skin. I think the glove on that hand saved me a lot of grief.
