Actually "Lincoln Mercury Merkur" dominated Trans Am from 84-87. However, those cars were the "Mercury" Capri and the "Merkur" XR4ti. As usual the the SCCA responded to success by spazzing out, and...

A few years back, one of the local radio Morning show guys, Joe Sanchez, would do the Sunday announcing at SP. If You are going to get radio DJs though, Bob Steele would be a much better choice. :D

Occasionally, vintage "vsr"s from the North East will pop up on ebay or elsewhere. Same idea, except the chassis was replaced with a full 2 seater, usually LeGrand inspired and crude. I don't know if...

Didn't I see this paving project on Top Gear the other night?

SP is pretty much a year round operation, and alot of it has nothing to do with racing OR track days. Cancel a car club event or three? Yes. Cancel those government driver training events? What are...

Everyone seems to focus on the last line, while ignoring the rest of that quote. Why do we have to throw out "low cost", "limited modifications" and " useful and necessary to construct a safe race...

Hmmmm... original idea seems alot like the WDCR SRX7 rules. Only difference is, start with SS rules, add "trunk kit" and rip out interior. One of the best cars in the class can't sell for 5k here....

If its no big thing for open ECUs then it should make no difference to allow all cars the option of converting to EFI, so long as they use the same intake area and number, right? I mean, isn't IT all...

Actually it was an outgrowth of a driver of one of those unnamed spec cars with a rotary motor making the split start suggestion to the class admins. There were two groups of the aforementioned cars,...

1. The FAA has taken advantage of 9/11 to restrict alternate uses of airports. You know those racers are a very suspicious bunch.

2. Having followed a north east skiing forum, there has...

Shhhhhh.. you didn't have to give out the white flag secret. Next You will be telling how many sheep are involved when the green flag with yellow and white on it is shown. :birra:


Do remember...

Ahhhh but which way did they run at Paramount Ranch? :P

Been calling down there alot, have you? :rolleyes: :happy204:

One frequent difference is that many wagons have a longer wheelbase compared to their sedan/coupe brothers.

Oh, and Adam Malley seemed to think that Civic wagon brakes were enough of an advantage...

Dave, yer starting to sound like someone else whom the Piggly Wiggly racing team knows and "loves". :unsure: No, the track fund is not going to get anywhere near paying for a track, but it would be...

Wasn't there a slow/fast group pairing about 3 or 4 years back?
ITS/ITB I want to say. Before that I seem to recall ITB/GTPinto

With as many classes as there are, we are allways going to have...

Do other tracks offer their own PDE programs the way Summit Point has their Friday At The Track (FATT) program? Many of the instructors are SCCA racers as well. There is a large contingant of SRX7...

1. Solo events are not "High speed events", and so as far as personal insurance goes, is looked at in a much different light than Road Racing. Any bets the insurance underwriters look at it the same...

Up until 2 years ago, I used to flag at this event. It was very much a "run what ya brung" event for the "modern" cars with everything from SRX7s and HP bugeyes up to SW and ALMS GT Porsches. You...

So the Neon was allways an ITA car, or has that bus allready departed?

What stromberg? The BGT only came with 2 SU HS4s and then 2 SU HIF4s

that was part of my original post. The spec line is wrong to the point of a MGBGT being impossible.

If I choose to do a BGT it will be out of enthusiasm for the car and the marque. I do happen to think that there are a few things that can be done to improve the cars performance that might not have...

I have been looking at the spec line on the mgb gt (68-74) in the ITCS, and several things jump out at me.

1) in the last few years, the GT came with the same HIF carbs as the roadster.
2) 18V...

It was mentioned to them at some point after labor day, and they were not aware of the rule change at the time. I think they are going to make a kit for the 1G rx7, since the MARRS srx7 ruleset specs...

Soil? You have soil? You live in the fertile part of the Shenandoah Valley!
