You can have them shipped here. I'm about 12 miles away from the Windsor tunnel in Madison Heights, MI.
And I'm open Saturdays, that is until the seasons starts, then you better call first.

Re: Rationals scheduled in the West
So I guess that National SCCA license that I was told was so important to strive for in 1971, really wasn't. Looks like now I would be able to do it all (except the Run-offs, if one cares) with that Regional ticket.
I did hear about some costly accidents at the test event.
Good Luck

Re: Brake bias and general brake questions..
You want the balance bar to be "straight" under Max braking, so you have maximum stroke available on the good side when the other (hopefully never) side fails.

Re: Brake bias and general brake questions..
I don't know if my customers do that flip the shoe thing, but we sell KFP Magnum, Carbon-Kevlar brake material on our F/Vee shoes. The KFP material is notoriously easy on brake drums/disks. My big marketing problem with the KFP material, has been that many of my customers (F/Vee and FST included) do...

Re: Brake bias and general brake questions..
The reason you want the brake bias bar, parallel to the front bulkhead, at full brake pressure, is so that if you have a brake failure on one end, you have maximum push-rod travel left for the other master. A few years ago, a past employee who now works for an IRL team (CART at the time), told me th...

Re: FV Meeting at Runoffs
Seems that I saw a sign with an arrow on it, pointing out towards turn 8-9, with CRB on it. Was it a case of being so remote, that no one could find them and voice their opinions, or did someone move the sign as a joke ? Gomberg must have something on someone(s) in SCCA, he sure has had us eat a lot...

WoW !!!!!
You got two engine and intakes and both on short notice.
Both of those guys/companies really stepped up.
Glad to hear the Abbott brothers will now be able to make the show!

Re: Hans Device
I have found that everyone likes the sliding tethers over the fixed. HANS angle (20 or 30) depends on your seating angle. Have someone measure you, while you're seated in the car (upper chest where HANS would sit). The number you are looking for, is the angle back from vertical. Next, neck size (dre...

Re: braided brake lines
Making braided brake/clutch lines yourself, is (and always has been) such an easy job, I don't know why anyone would buy them in fixed lengths. With one piece of line, the length of the longest used, 2 olives (the brass part under the nut), a couple of wrenches and a good cutting tool, you can fix a...
