I would say that if you don't know whom the other party is by now, you will never know.

Did you walk around and look at the other cars at the event after your incident?
Obviously, it is too late...

When we built our A2 cars we would go to the local shop that did custom exhaust and had a pipe bender. We had the header and the "flex joint" on the car and said "Make us an exhaust that fits this...

Swepco 201 is what we use.

I have gone through this repeatedly with my drivers school students. I would suggest that (as I suggest to my students) that you know two things. You should know:
The flags, what they mean AND what...

I have two.
The Sparco Tech 5 (all around use) known as "ol faithful" is 3.78 pounds.
The Sparco X-light (Sunday Suit) is 3.0 pounds.
Both are 3 layer FIA/ SFI 5.
Both are size 60 (euro sizing)....

Well, yes. But it still does not make the outcome right. :dead_horse:

However, if I think about it too much I will just get pissed off all over again.

Thanks for the kind thought....

Sadly, the SCCA has been scared of the Porsche cars since the late fifties when "the Giant Killer" known as Bruce Jennings to the rest of the world, cleaned everyones clock with a 356 Carrera....

Thanks for knocking me back into reality. :happy204:
What the hell was I thinking.

Somebody please flame away.

I am a regular poster on the prod car forum since I have two production cars.
I asked Mr Stautberg to elaborate on his post right after he made it, with no response.
Someone else posted an...

I have tried several times to access the Baum tools pdf file here at work with no luck.
I will try it from home and see what info it offers.
Thanks

Ok group,
I have spent the last two weeks on two different 911 motor rebuilds so I have been a little occupied.
I have found another box of these VW/Porsche tools in the mean time.
Here is an...

Group 42 was the smaller, lighter battery used in most of these cars.
Group 41 was used in diesels, cold weather area cars and lots of A/C cars.

Beware that because of the price of lead, many...

So it is the time of year that my boss has me cleaning up the machine shop in preparation for "motor building time". Today I found a box of VW/Porsche specialty tools that I cannot identify. Here is...

An SA2000 helmet will be good until January 1,2011. So yes, you are ok with most sanctioning bodies until that date.
Hopefully Snell will release the SA2010 standard in the next few months to allow...

While I am by no means an expert on Volkswagens, that car would probably do ok.
Until you had to race against a well prepared E36 BMW.

But it would be a fun project.

Thanks, for taking the time to post.
"Example: "What are you, are freaking idiot?" is not an attempt to gather info." Yes, apparently I am.
I am going to go hide under my rock now.

Group,
So I am trying to figure something out. I had posted in this thread several days ago the question as to why open wheel and closed wheel cars were on track at the same time when this incident...

This an easy question. The answer, regional production.
As long as you do not get caught up in the stupidity that is National production car racing,regional production is a great play ground.
The...

I will ask the question since no one else has. Why were closed wheel and open wheel cars on the track at the same time?
Has the "Club at Lime Rock" forgotten one of the primary tenants of auto...

The Mk1 hubs are very fragile and should be replaced at the end of every season. I have had two Mk1 hubs fail in nine years of racing and luckily both failures occurred in parts of Summit...

While I am glad that the ITB/ITS grouping works for other regions racing programs it has been proven here in WDC that it DOES NOT work. The last year that I raced in ITB we were grouped with ITS. You...

Thats right you heard it here first, the powers that be have chosen to move the ITS class into the ITB/ITC group.
Welcome.
I think that we have tried this combination several times before and it...

How about keeping up with the car in front of you on a single file restart? If you need an example I would be happy to elaborate.

Some observations on these units from a year of helping a customer deal with his.
Tag or 5th? 5th wheel for sure. By the time you load the car, tools, gear, spares, more tools and gear, and the...
