Re: cylinder jug air deflectors-use or not?

John, Even with the bottom cooling duct, Ed Womer has said he would like to experiment with a deflector at the top of the cylinders to improve the cooling. While we used it as a First with no cooling issues, our races were run in early April, October and November, so with higher ambient temps we mig...

Re: Adams Aero Body Question

Bob, My old Adams did have a one piece upper body, 2 lower side pieces and a nose. I believe Chuck Rutter is the guy that altered your Adams when he owned it. IIRC, he sold it to buy a Mysterian and still races in the Michigan area. Someone here may have contact info for him and he might be able to ...

Re: Womer EF-1 Formula First

I need to sell my Formula First parts. Everything that's needed to put a kit together is available except fluid lines, an oil cooler, seat belts (I can throw in some SafeQuip belts to get re-webbed), a battery, rain light and rod ends. (We didn't get that far with the new car.) That includes - from ...

Re: WTB Fire Bottle / System

Matt,

I have an ESS system that I bought for the 45th Birthday after I set off my HALON bottle 4 days before the race. Everything is there and I'd like $150, but make me an offer. It can't be mailed. I'll be out of town until Thursday.

For Sale - Engine, Beam, Transmission & Tires

For Sale - Everything for sale is as it came off the Womer I converted and sold unless noted otherwise. The car ran as high as 5th at the ARRC, finished 6th and we felt that a 17 year old rear shock and exhaust system where what needed to be developed, not these parts. My house is going on the marke...

Re: FV Racing Sim Development

I swapped out the SCCA 'engine' for the South African (about 100hp with a 2k higher tq peak). That one seems more powerful than it should though I've been having motor issues with my car for so long I may not be a good judge of it :cry: South African Formula Vees use a 1400cc, dual carb, watercoole...

Re: Who else is running Formula Special, and what setup?

My concern is you say you have a vintage eligible car. Several years ago at a regional I saw a Zink C4/Z5 get hit by a modern home built car. The Zink was absolutely destroyed. It folded around the driver's legs. Vintage cars are best suited for vintage racing. The chassis was designed for stock 40 ...

Re: Canopy

I have a 10X20 canopy from Harpster. Their cheapest canopy is much heavier duty than the conduit setups, and even though the poles are included it still costs less than a system from Pegasus without the conduit. I bought a 10X12 tarp so I can set it up as a 10X10 if I don't need 10X20. Also got the ...
