Re: For what it is worth...

Thank for the reply Lynn. I did not have the dyno verification but I can definitely feel it through seat of the pants. It no longer sputters out of corners and even the idle cleaned up. It is pretty incredible the difference it made.

All the best,

JB

Re: For what it is worth...

Another decent outing at a two day divisional in Peru. My co-driver finished 2nd on the first day and I finished second on the second day. Chris Pruitt had me by .7 secs but I left some time out there. Of course, everyone always does.. The diagnostics says an optimum lap would have been .5 secs fast...

For what it is worth...

All, If you look at the results of the Peru Tour, you will see that a Vee can be competitive. My car has had modifications learned from the last Nationals I attended. Namely, changing the restrictive exhaust I had on it and introducing rear roll resistance to the zero roll layout... The results coul...

Are Solovees done?

Guys,
After the dismal results and the MAC reluctance to give us any rules changes are we to just accept that we will always be at the bottom of the order?

If not, what are the other options?

I believe I still have the original Zink bodywork for that car, if you want it.. We would just have to figure out how you could get it.

Re: How many Vees???

Lynn, Thanks for the reply.. I can only say that if they can play alphabet soup with all the tuner classes it makes no sense that they would be that negative in regards to getting more modified cars out on track.. I can't see their reasoning and I am going to pursue it anyway. Maybe a letter to Lisa...

How many Vees???

There has been some discussion of trying to get a class of our own. So I would like to hear from everyone that has any information on who has a vee that is just sitting on the sidelines...
Ultimately, we need to know if we have enough interest to build our own class Nationally.

Re: The latest results... MAC requests...

Thanks for that info..
I am dropping the straight cut gears request as it is cost prohibitive..
Asking for 950 lb weight, same heads and compression for both engines. The only difference between the two engines would be the number of carbs allowed..
Unshrouding the valves..

Best regards,

Re: The latest results... MAC requests...

Okay. Just FYI but here are the changes I will be requesting:
Reduce minimum weight to 950 lbs.
Consolidate the 1600 and 1915 engine specs to be 10:1 and the 1600 heads. The only difference to be 1600 gets 2 carbs and the 1915 only one.
Remove the "No unshrouding of the valves" wording...

Re: The latest results... MAC requests...

Yes.. They would, but we would also have to have bigger valves to allow that amount of flow increase potential. Increased compression would add more torque to accelerate out of corners...
