I have a used Elliot I would sell for $50+ freight. Used in many Van Diemen's.

I think Bob will make spindles BUT they need to make 10pr at a time. When I talked to him in February he said people just wanted to buy cheap Chinese spindles. It took him several years to sell the last run. The good thing is his spindles don't break.

Dave

I am absolutely opposed to the committee asking SCCA Enterprises for an estimate to build intake manifold.. We the Club has propped up that entity for 25 years with millions, yes millions of dollars and should have no dealings with them. The damage they have done to the organization is immeasurable....

You mean you don't check and balance the your drums before you put them on the car?

For those of you with a Han's and want to try the 2" belts give Tim at Safe Quip a call, he will make new shoulder straps only for you. What he will do is take a 3' belt fold and sew it over so it is 2" and add a non-slip fabric on the back to help keep the belt in place.Can also custom se...

Congratulation Doug that is a great car you purchased.

Dave

Robert has a new Bosch starter for sale on the First site. It is a very good price and can be converted to a 6 volt drive for use on a Vee.

It seems to me the newest and least experienced people in this class WHINE the most. Maybe they should get some experience keep the oil in their car's and keep them on the track.

There is not time to waste

Greg you sound Like Barack Obama.

OK I crewed on a F2000 East car all season. Let's look at the spec tire. $950 per set but that did include mounting and balancing. F2000 series limits a competitor to 6 tires for official qualifying and the two races per weekend. Unlimited tires for the test day and practice. We used 2 SETS for test...

Gel -AGM batteries need a special charger for extended life. The charge at a much higher voltage than a wet cell battery. Most are of a 3 stage type charging to 80% at one voltage then going higher to bring the battery to about 95% them another voltage to top it off in what is called a float mode. G...

This is kind of a funny discussion, people have been breaking and complaining about spindles breaking for years. Bob Lybarger stepped up to the plate several years ago and had spindles and drums made and approved to be used in our class. Nobody bought them (well very few people) I don't think anyone...

I read Friday's races will be available on demand Starting Oct.4 Saturday's races Oct.9 Didn't catch a date for Sunday's. Hope the include in car.

The cover on the collector looks longer than the stock one, I am sure it is BPR. Look at it Mike.

The headers on EBay look like Caracal C-D type, and looks like a BPR collector4-2-1.

Sorry the picture didn't post, but the link works. Thank you for all the PM inquiries I think I answered them all. I left many details out of the original post, because I didn't want to deal with it till after the Run-Offs. I wanted to have units available there, as it is looking I will only have se...

I love my Beer. I always have, that is why I have a hard time making minimum weight. So I made another run of starter drives so you can shed up to 7 lbs. off your starter. This drive will fit Bosch permanent magnet starters. See it at the Run-Offs in row 9 between Mikey the chef and Mikey The June S...

The angled adjusters are available in 2 different slot widths also. Thought I would further confuse the issue for you.

Dave

I would be careful mixing 110 and Av gas, you might want to test it for legality before you are asked to give a sample. I think you will be surprised to see it will fail SCCA tests.

Dave

Great write up Jim. I am in favor of dry sumping our motors. I think extending the sump or upping the capacity would be like pissin' in your pants it will give you a nice warm feeling until the smell kicks in. For a one time cost of less than $400 you are done. Jim can correct the prices but about $...

Mike Beaumia ran a set at the Sprints, Mike Knox said that they made 20 sets or so for testing and will have a new updated version or two before the Run-Off's.

Dave

Check with Bob or Jim, for a while the chrome wheels were out of spec. and there was a problem mounting race tires on them. You would have to run the 4 1/2" wheels on all axles.
Dave

Bob Lybarger stocks the tabs.

Dave

Depending on the age of the car and how much digging they have to do SCCA may just issue a replacement for the new paper price. Lot's of their records are in storage and they tend to be pretty lazy. That's what they did for me.
Dave

Get in a crash and you might choke on the thing. That's why the GCR tells old guys to take their false teeth out before racing.
