    Your start looks pretty impressive on my video. I couldn't see the flag and by the time I moved over to see it, it was waving.

  3. In-car from ITA race

    Here is my video from the Saturday ITA race at Gingerman. Had a blast battling with the ITA Saturn. I ran in full SM trim with the restrictor plate so I was a little under powered. No time between...

    The 1300 piston idea is great for a tuner kid on the streets as "cheap" compression gain. But for the ITC racer, if you want to deck the block/head, there is already very little room to deck and...

    What?

    What? <_<

    The Si piston actually has a larger area dished out of the top of it, which would create less compression when used with the CVCC head.

    The radio and speakers comment sounded like a bit of sarcasm to me. I don&#39;t think he was serious.



    Also, which is heavier... the door glass, door cover and door guts or nascar style door bars?...

    I&#39;m in a 1986 Honda Civic DX and it weighs in at 1987lbs. The rule book is 1955lbs. I&#39;m not a heavy guy at 177lbs. I&#39;m not really sure where to shave 30lbs out of the car, or if I&#39;d want to with...

    Why would you want to cover the interior openings? Just cosmetics? Won&#39;t that add weight? Plus, make it more difficult to push dents back out?

    Greg - that&#39;s pretty crazy that you can run a stock radiator on your G-Prod car. I&#39;m guessing you also have an oil cooler or sump system? I am running the Honda oil cooler from the 86 Si that...

    Is it worth the money to buy a prepped Weber or just buy a new one and an assortment of jets? Pegasus has the new one for $420 something and the prepped ones for $650 or so. Any idea what prepped...

    What radiator options do I have for ITC racing? The radiator that came with my car looks to have been re-cored with more cores than stock. It has a couple of leaks and I&#39;m trying to decide whether...

    I went with Honda parts for my rebuild. The 0.040 pistons came from OPM. I think it was worth it. Food for thought. I had a radiator issue in 95 degree heat and ran the car at 250 degrees for...

    Bent one by running a little too close to a fellow competitor. Anyone have a spare steering rack for sale for an 84-87 Honda Civic. Manual, not power steering. I think the CRX is the same part?

    Steve - Did you see how much my car did the "dog pissing on the hydrant" this past weekend. It&#39;s just a product of front wheel drive. You&#39;ll want less rear traction anyway - and what better way...

    Any thoughts on R6 vs. A6? I have heard that some road racers are using the auto cross tire, A6 for shorter, under 30 minute sprint races. What&#39;s the difference in compound? A6 softer?
