Good Luck to Him.
The FC crowd is very similar to the FV group.

Re: Project Wanted - Looking for first FV car

Take a look at my Caracal "C", since I am in Greenville, SC. There is enough there to race now and still have most of the parts to build another car.

Re: Registration for the Atlanta ARRC is OPEN!

The "2015 American Road Race of Champions Contingency Sponsors" is an interesting list. FV is one of the few cars that has no contingences from anybody. Hoosier will award contingence to CF and FST in group 4, but nothing to FV in the same group.

Re: Photo Finish

Brian/Steve

When I talk with people about FV racing a picture would really help.

If the photos could be posted on this website so that we could download, it would be great.

Photo Finish

Lisa Noble

We need to get a downloadable photo of the finish of the FV race.

It is the best advertisment for FV racing.

Was it the closest finish for 5 cars in runoffs history?

Re: Alternate tire/wheel for FV?

Steve and Barry Thanks for the data. The change in tire diameter translates to an increase of 5.9% in circumference. So there will be a top speed change. When I ran my car at the Bonneville Salt flats, my top speed with Hoosier slicks was 98 mph at the 1 mile trap. Switching to DOT tires on the rear...

Re: Alternate tire/wheel for FV?

For those who have the actual tire dimensions.
With the 14" wheel tire combination, will it mean that a long box will be needed?
With a 15" wheel tire combination will the short box be the more useful choice?

Items that I would like to see.

Re: Formula Vee is invited to the FF 45th Speedfest at Barber

Steve I beg to differ. Of all the tracks that I have run at, there are only 2 (two) that have a no pets policy. Those are Mid-Ohio and Barber. As you said, car pet collisions are unknown to me, while I do know of car wild animal crashes. I have been at one track and was warned of a real rattle snake...

Re: Formula Vee is invited to the FF 45th Speedfest at Barber

Thanks Steve Yes, I know about the human penchant for procrastination. The FV 45th and 50th had considerable numbers long before the actual date. Different subject. It is realy a shame that Barber has the no pets policy. It is the one thing that has kept me from going to Barber in the past. Matt FV61
