Be careful. For some reason, my trailer came with a bolt pattern or 5x4.75. I believe it is a GM passenger car bolt pattern. I had to special order a spare tire and brake drums for it.

Some of the Production guys swear by the Flowmaster single chamber race muffler. The claim is that dyno testing shows no power loss. Never used one myself, though.
I'll second the PFC z-rated. I use them on my Bronco. Nice stopping power and next to no dust.
You're wrong about one thing, though. The best thing about them is the lifetime warranty. ...
I was watching the race Sunday night when they showed the wreck. One of his rear tires blew as he went through the traps at 322 mph. The frame broke between him and the engine, and then his car...
I hope you're right, but I'm not betting my life on it. That's why anyone with an opinion, one way or the other, needs to write the CRB and make your opinion known.
Here's the introduction to section 20, followed by 20.4
20. DRIVER’S RESTRAINT SYSTEM
All drivers in SCCA-sanctioned speed events shall utilize either a five or six-point restraint harness...
Well, I have other problems with SCCA that have almost made me quit racing with them. If this rule is truly interpretated so that I can't use my Isaac, it will be the last straw. Let's hope that...
Mike, go here for info on the Isaac:

Here's a copy of the email I sent to the CRB:

For the Isaac users, what does this little tidbit mean (page 12, Member Advisories):

Thanks!
I have some Toyo's on the way to use for open track days (trust me, I need the track time). What should I set the camber to as a good starting value? My car is a production car set up for slicks. ...
Thanks for the compliments. Hopefully I won't wreck it the first time out...
I just got finished painting my Pinto. I went with Grabber Blue. The paint I used was an enamel, a Dupont line called Nason. I got it at O'Reilly's for $50/gallon. One gallon did the whole car. ...
Thanks for the leads. I'll check out these other sites.
Actually, it ran quite strong. But it would lose about a quart of oil in a 30 minute race. I haven't raced since correcting these problems, so I'll see what happens in a few weeks.
I have a question about crankcase ventilation. I recently replaced the rear main seal and the oil pan gasket, which were leaking like sieves. I want to prevent these leaks from re-ocurring, and I...
11.2.1.BB Cool suits are allowed in all classes. Water tank mounts shall be of a safe and secure design. Showroom Stock and Touring cars shall meet minimum weight with the system totally removed.
There's way too much to the rules to start building the car without a rule book. Where do you live? Maybe someone will give you a 2003 GCR, which should be adequate to get you started.
Here's a...

Bill F.: Thanks, I sent Bryan an email.
Dick: My car already has the larger front brakes from a '74+ car. FP is limited to a 9.3" disc and stock calipers. Rear discs can't be larger than the...

I just recently purchased an F-Production Pinto. It's a '72, and has also been raced in GT-3 and GT-Pinto in the NE.
This summer, I am going to attempt to install rear disc brakes. If...
