Re: On board camera suggestions

Hal,

I hear it will do that sometimes if your manifold is too big...

Maybe you should get rid of it...

Re: 2009 Runoffs

Very Cool!

Re: Fitting in a car

I hope there are cars roomier than the Citation. Dean looks like a stuffed sausage in my (SpeedSport) Citation...

Re: EFCN Trackside Live: FV Birthday Party Coverage

Allan, I'd be interested in details of how the Hoosier 45/55's compare to each other in performance including air temps & conditions throughout the weekend, and also how they compare to the Goodyears... I suspect a number of drivers are making tire brand decisions this spring... Thanks, Donald F...

I met Andres in '06 at a German Formula Vee race in the Czech Republic... BTW, he won that race too... Donald As you do ...
