This is the most comfortable seat I have used in 20+ years of racing. I can literally fall asleep in it on grid. Full of great features and very safe. The reasonable price makes it a fantastic deal....
What "rubber" parts in your carburetor are there other than the o-rings around the idle jet holders ? The O-rings would be easy to match up with ones of compatible material if the existing ones...
Thank you for adding to the discussion. No really I did not mean to come off that way. I have run my personal daily driver on E85 for 5 years now and absolutely love it as a fuel source. I would race...
Hmm, not much support. And only a couple of intelligent responses. If more people had actual experience with E85 it would be much different. The plus sides of 105 octane and virtually no pollutants...
I would suggest that the bigger question is why they did not get the dead car off track sooner. They should have thrown a full course caution and sent out the tow truck right away. I did not like the...
Jonathan, this is where it is at. Looks like comp board is still working on a final decision...

Another view of the Group 5 race on 6-7-2009 from the ITB winner. I started first with a new track record for ITB of 1.36.801 and finished first. My...
I am sure your car will be loaded with good stuff when it is done. Definately include those compounds in your tesing. Start with the 60 series unless you need more bite then try the 70's. if you need...
Sweet
I am glad you have made the effort David. Did you happen to add the 245's into a spec line?
David, you may want to research the Hawk DTC60/70 compounds. My personal experience with them has trumped anything I have used. This is on the Volvo with Wilwood SL6's and my Manta with its puny...
New video posted... I took this video during an instructors test day last weekend. Notice that the track does not even have curbing or markers yet.

I currently have my oil cooler mounted in front of my radiator behind the standard grill opening. I would like to move the cooler to the lower portion of the front valance. This will require cutting...
Welcome to Portland. Along with a healthy SCCA roster we also have the ICSCC to race in. Come by the track June 7/8 and enjoy some Conference racing. I will be in a silver ITB Opel Manta.
In any class you can spend just unlimited amounts of money. Even in a standard IT class that are supposedly limited. I have a serious backlog on the to do list but in reality the car is very close to...
I feel for you James, I ran ITE for one year before deciding to go to super production M (NA up to 4.0l and forced induction up to 2.8l). In ITE thre are just too many crazy cars for a lesser car to...
What about next weekend slow poke :o :o :o
I guess we will need to let this play out a bit... The information I recieved was from a couple of top local teams that can afford to test these things. Their feedback was relayed to me via a local...
So I was looking into tires for next year and have heard some very positive feedback from my tire guys on the "new" BFG R1's. Has anyone invested in them yet and what do you think. So far I have...
As stated in previous posts, ITE rules vary from region to region. I would advise against running in ITE and just go to SPO. First of all you are building the car now and claiming that it was in...
I would strongly recommend clutchnet. Get their sprung six puck disk. it will virtually never wear out and even if it gets oiul on it you will never know the difference.
This is an online store i have used a lot. The pricing is generally very good and the quality so far has been as good as any. http://vertexnow.com/Welcome-Verocious-Motorsports .
That is the same sealant that Kodiak Motorsports uses and recommends for their wheels. I am not sure where to get it, but they are sending me a tube with my new shells.
itmanta has sent a request to join the IT group under the username linssenp. Thanks
Wa Wa Wa. Come on Tony "they" said 240's would never be competative. Don't give up so fast. Write a letter, get a weight adjustment. It is very arguable and I am sure there are people on this forum...
