I will be back to Summit next year. That is one of the best group of racers, Vee or other class. that I have ever seen. I can't miss that! Even though I am the slowest vee out there, I'm still having fun!
Oh and Steve thanks for the r45s that I want to grove. Tell Eric I said Hi.

thinking I might just buy a groover and try it my self. sound silly but I want to have a set of inters. just incase. have lots of slicks, a good set of rains, need to have middle ground tires. could use the street tires from my VW thing, for the vintage look. 14" wheels though, or I could use t...

I am trying to find someone, hopefully in SW FL that can groove some slicks into inter. for me. I have 2 sets of R45 hoosiers that I want to groove. I would do it myself, but I am slightly disabiled, no use of left arm. so I think trying to do it would be very hard. Thanks for any help or info. THOR

Gary,
do you still have your D13?

any one going with a vee besides me? Mark? should be a fun event. I just hope I'm not the only one in class.

saw George this weekend at the Duryea hillclimb, where he broke the hill record that stood foe 15 years! by 2 seconds! and yes he was up here running the Polish Mtn. hill the same weekend as Eagles nest. What an amazing driver! 4 vees showed up at Duryea this year. Tammy Osawald taking the win, my d...

was George not there? how can ANYone beat the "shark"???? Mark I know you to be a true guy! but this is unreal! I guess George was up north runing with the PHA! the kings of hillclimbing!

at school with mark

Steve, I think you forgot one very important thing.
HAVE FUN!
That is the only reason we do this. I don't think any one is getting a pay check. so just enjoy. I know when I get out of my car I have a big smile on my face, why I do it.

is the throw-out arm"fork" bent? putting strange pressure on the bearing? just a quick thought on it, that could cause a problem
THOR

I like the idea of a spec tire. I would run the class. I can't make min weight unless I cut off an arm or something heaver
THOR

I plan on it, if all works out. I'll be there

the one I have is a billit allum. peice that goes on the nose cone. made by a guy named Ken Taggert. it has a bar that slides to block reverse. IN hillclimbs you need second alot. I'll try to get Taggerts number posted
THOR

I have 2 cars, and 2 differant lockouts. will try to post photos of the one that works best

car counts? look at what Bob Tupper did @ summit point! fv counts were low and summit said unless you have more cars we will put fv in groups that you don't want to be in. Bob made it happen! I don't want to leave out any one that helped him, but as far as I know it was he who did the grunt work. Su...

I have a 6x14 side to side is a little tight, but length is fine, could go 12' long if you don't plan on carrying much in the trailer but the car. I also have a 8x18 that I might be able to get 2 vees into.
hope this helps. I would say 6x12 would be the smallest.

I have used an old front drum, bolt the wheel to it and the speed balancer will take it, now I have my own bubble balancer. local vw shows you might meet people that know of a shop that has the adapter

so what you are saying Hughie, is we need to bring the scales to the hillclimbs to make sure you make weight, or feed you a few extrea gunniess to add weight, and slow the brain. Like I said the Womer is a car for bigger guys, and they do well when set up right. One won the big race at the BD party....

Vector or Womer, seem to be the bigest of the modern cars that I have sat in. I just bought a one off that I don't fit in, mods needed, live and learn

will we have to go through tech before we can do test day? just bought new car, had 07 annaul so I'm sure it will pass.

look great, but my trailer only has 6' of head room any ways, maybe up front. Once I get done building my new lift for the BD party, I'll think about doing something like that. any one looking for a vee lift, this one might be for sale after the party. find me in the pits by turn 3 I hope. yellow #7...

Yes Mark I got the Brazos, Dad will be at the BDparty running the Vector. we have a few more NE hillclimbers coming also. the PHA will have about 6 vees there. It will be fun learning to drive a new car in traffic. see you in Savanna

I saw 6500 at roebling road drafting a SRF running a short box. you will go as fast as your car will go there. it is a good time
I was pulling 6300 no draft, and big thanks to Dave Carr at Autowerks for the motor. Roebling is a fast track.

wish I knew how to post photos, have a few good ones of mark passing me at school. that is one fast vee. watch out for him at the birthday party. I bought a new car just to keep up, hopefully pass Mark at the party, but The Caracal is a beast! and Mark is one he!! of a driver/ must be hillclimb time...

they were looking for them at the double school last month, better to be safe than sorry
