Final drive gearing is free, but not transmission. Also, the parts (gears and brakes) don't necessarily have to match the numbers listed on the spec line, many of the published numbers have been...
Personal responsibility in this country is at an all time low its seems, but don't open that can of worms. How many cars do we have running now that were required to disable their anit-lock brakes?
Crossing also multiplies the load in the strap, could easily be two or three times the load depending on how steep the angle is.
Is this an IT motor? If so, an offset key is only legal to bring the cam timing back to stock.
Not an ECR. We're out.
This is probably a bit calous, and I only have a few of the facts, but it sure seems you showed a lack of awareness in this situation. It may be completely the other guy's fault, or maybe you took...
There is one of my major complaints on this car. The transmission should have been taken into account. The ratios are phenomenal in that box, and it negates the 'low torque' (100lb deduction) of...
Our best at VIR is a 2'12.5. Ben hit a 2'12.7 at the March race, while Mark got the Acrua to 2'13.3. Mike Skeen ran a 2'10 in Moorefield's E36 BMW last year in qualifying (2'11.2 is his true, but...
They found somewhere near four seconds at VIR since last season. Quite impressive.
Paul Dubinski and Mark Masters have their "Part Time" Acura RSX moving very well now. I've heard of another in Ohio, but haven't seen it.
"Consideration is being given to revisiting ITR as a whole during 2010."
What's going on here?
Like the ITS Alfa Milano's. One has a 2.5 liter engine with 154 hp, the other is 3.0 liter with 183 hp. Both weight in at 2780 lbs.
You forgot the S2000 @ 240. There was a car classed at 238...
Larger diameter tires will change the gearing, but will have zero affect on torque.
I was just poking fun since the car was listed as "ITA certified". Maybe it's on par with some of the "certified used cars" you see. Yup, it's used, here's a certificut...
Seems it didn't sell... yet.
Notice the lack of the ever-controversial washer bottle. Or more significantly the lack of the front turn signals. Certainly minor details, but more evidence the...
I remember an ITB Alfa GTV that would run with the A-Sedans on the banking at Daytona...
3052 (probably round down to 3050) is the weight per the process all but one ITR car went through.
217 x 1.25 x 11.25 = 3052
The 92 is the only year without VANOS, and is also down half a point on compression.
The original proposal was in the July 2006 Fastrack. Here are the numbers as I know them, correct me if there are any errors:
15%:
Honda S2000
Porsche 968
Mazda Rx-8 (as originally classed,...
I've heard several complaints on BMW auto's, but never anything on a manual, and certainly not the E36. We got somewhere around 5 years (8-10 races a year, mostly 1.5 hour enduros) on the 100k mile...
All the ITR BMW inline 6's were set at 30% (every inline 6 got 30% in the original proposal). The ITR BMW E30 M3 got 25%... good luck with that.
The 968 was run through at 15%
