Just FYI. I have no first hand knowledge or interest There is an $2500 ex GT3 Capri offered on the GTL website. Tub car Not heavy, it's a full prep 2L, with awesome after market support. So at least on paper looks mis classed in FP.....which is never a bad thing if it's your own ride LOL...

How close can I, or have you, run a Hoosier Prod/GT radial slick sidewall to the UPPER ball joint? How tight can I, or have you, run the clearance between the inside diameter of the wheel rim and the outside edge of the brake caliper? THANK YOU in advance for anything shared. I am trying to...

Looking for an EProd Caterham. Any available? Project or needing update ok. PM preferred.

Can anyone direct me to a good source for small volume DLC coating. I have just a few pieces.

I have run these for years and never had this problem. Realized at dyno today that my tachometer and the optical eye set up for the dyno do not match. At 4000 rpm the tach and the dyno read the same. However at 8000rpm on my tachometer the dyno said the engine was turning 8800 rpms, a 10%...

How difficult is it to bring a race only loose engine over the border from Canada and does anyone have experience? I'm wondering if its as simple as showing up at the border crossing with a bill of sale and declaring it, or if there will be some long drawn out bonding process and I would need...

Would like to mount two oil coolers in parallel, not in series. Have done this before with identical coolers. Question: if I mount in parallel one cooler (2x) much larger than the second will I get some flow through both of them? Or just through the smaller one offering less resistance...

I have 2 duel Westach EGT gauges hooked to 4 EGT probes in my current racer. I was running this stuff on another car 15 years ago and on something or another ever since. It is old but has been very reliable. Can I replace just the one probe I broke tonight and still have readings comparable...

Would anyone be willing to share their experience and/or opinions concerning the effects of kingpin inclination on 0 or low scrub geometry?? I have found a lot to read but having difficulty relating it to a small production or GT car and coming to a design decision. Thanks

Dear Spridget Gurus, I am, but should I be running the little tiny hose from water pump to head at front of a 1275 engine?? Doesn't seem likely, but is it possible that I get enough bypass flow under light loads to cool the engine with closed thermostat?? Something else I should look for...

Run into one I can't figure out? Any help would be appreciated. I can only get my Electromotive to advance to about 39 or 40 advance instead of the 60 it is supposed to be capable of reaching. Additionally at higher rpm it backs out 2-4 degrees seen watching with the light. Zeroed out it does...

Donna Mae Mimms 1963, Hprod, SCCA national championship winning Sprite will return to the track this summer. Yes it will be pink! For those interested I believe this was SCCA club racings, first female champion. For sure it's most flamboyant. I saw the car last weekend. It's current owner...
