OK gang, let's keep the NE entries coming in so that we can win the first Divisional Shootout at Nelson Ledges!!! I know we are good enough on track, we just need to be strong (in numbers) enough to...
This is your first announcement about an added challange that will take place this October at the MVR Double Regional at Nelson Ledges. Nelson Ledges track facility sits on the border of two...
We still have three of them (former IMSA Renault Cup Renaults) racing here in NE Ohio. They run in IT-C and I hold the Nelson Ledges track record for IT-C in my old man color maroon one. We have...
I believe that the rules say that you can modify the tops of the towers to install chamber plates. In that case the way is clear to cut and weld.
I do not see any allowence for that in the stay rod...
Hmmmmmm, If I remove my shift knob I can still shift my car. If he removes his "shift knob" he can't.
I will have the results on the www.mvrscca.org website in about an hour.

Those NAPA brake pads for my Renault are AE-7131A-M. I am sure they make them for the Pinto as I used them before. They were refered to as Ralok then. Now they are NAPA, United Brake Parts,...
OK, you guys find me an early (71-73) skinny bumper one with a trunk lid (not the hatch version) and I will join in. I still have all the other parts and could put one together pretty quickly. You...
I find it interesting that some of the group think the open ECU thing will kill the class.
I think it will save the class by allowing more competitive cars. If that is competitive adjustment so be...
The reality is that this rule may benefit more cars than it leaves out.
There are not many people building 25 year old cars anymore. (the ones with carbs)
Most new cars being built now are into...
I believe that the ITAC did a great job on this rule!
It will allow for a lot of new cars to join the IT ranks.
Lets remember guys, they don't make Pintos and Rabbits anymore. The rules written...
I bought a couple intake kits off Ebay for a 90-93 Acura Integra and they had 2.75 tubing and were fairly long. $9.95 plus freight. Fit my Renault nicely!

Back in the day I used Velvitouch linings on my Pinto. I believe that I had them made by Rochester Brake and Clutch in Rochester NY. The attachment method for the metalic pad material to the steel...
I really loved this book; The Front-Wheel Driving High Performance Advantage - Jack Doo. There is a picture of one of my old cars, #89, at the bottom of page 31! Cool to be published.
I built one a few years back, quite a few years back I guess, and it ran pretty well. I trophied at Mid Ohio with it when the IT-C fields were about 15-20 cars and at Nelson Ledges. I used Renault...
Reminder:
If you know anyone new planning to race this year, the Mahoning Valley Region is having a double driver's school at Nelson Ledges on April 20,21,22. Get your school requirements out of the...
Renault Alliance, Encore, and GTA, 1983-1987. Three different ECU types, all Renix. I'm sure that someone could figure out how to rechip and tune anything, but at what cost? They would remain a low...
Anything short of opening it up penalizes someone. If you allow many of the suggested specific modifications, only the rich can afford them. If you go back to stock you move closer to showroom stock...
I though the 8" only came in the wagons and some of the V6 models. I don't think it is legal in the 2.0 and 2.3 versions. It is also heavier which makes more unsprung weight and more weight overall....
Nice artical on the MegaSquirt in the copy of GrassRoots Motorsports I picked up at Borders last night. I have spent quite a bit of time researching MegaSquirt and you can fairly simply adapt it to...
Chris, very good job!
Just so you know my Renault runs with a MAP sensor, water temp sensor, intake air tempreture, but no throttle position sensor. Renault Renix system, those crazy froggy...
It sounds like it took IT-R to get a lot of you to see the light! About time.
They quit making bug eye Sprites a long time ago. It is time we get into the present and run cars with the reality of...
No, not yet. I have been busy at work and my body man just contacted me about doing the job. I am not used to having this kind of problem as this is the first major body damage I have had in over 10...
Hey John, those were my Renaults at Nelson, and my record, by .002 over the old record by Mark Connolly in a Honda. Not a great margin really, but enough.
I remember you from the Renault Cup days. I...
I have always found it interesting how we can read things so differently. In my mind the word "match" is the limiting word here. It clearly defines how far you are allowed to go.
I think we would...
