Very nice Richard! I will bring my SoloVee out of storage to run with you one of the upcoming events! Beautiful job!
Give me a call sometime so I can find out which events you are planning to run (727-786-6852). Heading to Brooksville soon?

Re: Anyone taking a FV to Deland FL this weekend?
I think that's me you are referring to! I haven't been running the Solo Vee too often these days. We picked up a Super Stalker and have been running that most the time. I have been thinking about running it (the Vee) at the Brooksville/Hernando airport SCCA event on Aug. 8th....

Towing vehicle delima
We use our Tundra to tow our race trailer. With all the fuss about sudden acceleration, I went to the Toyota Dealership and asked about the recall. They did not have any of the replacement parts in just yet, but the service department did set us up with a temporary fix. I'm not too crazy about it, b...

Re: Need help - know nothing!
Can't wait to see the final results Paul. Cool Dyno video 8) Glad to hear your plan to keep the original body/shape. It's too nice to change! PS Here's the plate idea we heisted from your Huron for the Stalker that I told you about. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v640/snookwheel/Mtyfun-1.jpg Scott

Re: The Solo Vee is getting a room mate
Good eye Mr. Remmers! the tires are 240/570/13. Very close to 22" diameter. They are the same ones that I use for the rear of our Solo Vee. The fenders move with the wheels, so no rubbing. It rained today. Once it stopped, I took a few runs. A lot of standing water and learning a new ride... no...

We did get to test it last weekend. VERY fun and a little loose ... OK, a lot loose on street tires. But, new 13 race wheels and a set of C91 Hankook slicks go on tomorrow. I expect it will grip a bit better next weekend. I still have not built the ramps I need to bring the Solo Vee and Stalker toge...

It's here! Registered and licensed. My wife and Son love it. Now I gotta fab a way to ramp up the front of the Solo Vee to fit over the nose of the Stalker.

Re: The Solo Vee is getting a room mate
Hi Paul. It should be a lot of fun. So what are the plans for the Huron Powerplant? As far as Stalkers in Canada, someone did manage to get one up there. In fact, I think it is for sale now. Just google "Brunton Stalker calgary" and it should pop up.

My wife has been co-driving my Solo Vee between events where she drives her Solstice. She decided to sell her Solstice and now a new even less practical car is on it's way to the house.

Autocross at Sebring Raceway June 6 & 7
Always a GREAT time. lots of grip and plenty of room. Nothing like the Sebring Raceway atmosphere. I know there are a couple other Solo Vee's popping up in Central Florida. It would be great to see a couple of you show up.

Re: 1970 Lynx vee
I am looking forward to seeing the pics of the foam seats. I need to put one together for my wife to use. Did you buy a 'two part' foam kit? A friend of mine (redvette on this forum) made one for his Vee using the canned aerosol foam from Home Depot.

Very neat video. I would love to try a Hill Climb. Not a lot of opportunity in Florida though! I have googled quite a few hill climbs to drool over. Here's a couple of my favorites: http://videos.streetfire.net/video/An-F1-car-doing-full-on-t_1953.htm http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=paClRcT39HY&N...
