Production (et al) are group 1. 36 cars on track as of Monday morning. Group 1 EP, FP, GTL, HP, T2, T3, T4, STL, B-Spec 36 Relevant Entrants I withdrew from the event from a number of reasons. When I withdrew, I mentioned that the run groups were unsafe.

I got an unsolicited package from Ken Brown with runoffs photos in it while I was on vacation this week. I probably don't have to tell anyone, but - in case you aren't aware - this type of phony invoice is a violation of USPS regulations http://pe.usps.com/cpim/ftp/manuals/dmm_old/C031.pdf...

OK as silly season approaches, maybe we can keep closer to racing than the bench... Here's my runoffs video. As I explained elsewhere, this was my first trip to RA and was terrified of the kink. My fastest lap through there was just staying right behind someone at their speed. I haven't...

For those of you like me, who want to attend the suspension seminars from Optimum G, but can't afford either the class or travel costs, I learned this morning that they're now doing webinars. http://www.optimumg.com/training/vehicl ... -webinars/ $295 for each of four sections of the course -...

I was looking for something on mylaps, and noticed the runoffs are posted. Under those results, there's a new column labelled "section times." I believe they're "section avg MPH" instead- anyone have any idea what that data represents? I'd like to piece together my hypothetical fastest lap...

Looks like they didn't run the full course. Bill Hingston was having trouble getting a trailer to get to the event - then promptly lowered the FP track record, both days. http://www.mylaps.com/results/showevent ... &org=25600

Folks, I'm wondering how RA is on tires. I have a limited tire budget (don't we all), but don't want to show up without enough tires to get through all the sessions. I'm running the Monday test day to learn the track, hopefully on the 2 used sets I have left from Hastings. One set is about...

1) When I was out there a couple years ago, I noticed a truck driving around and dumping RVs and refilling them with water - any idea if I need to get on a list or contact a vendor ahead of time - or can I just sign up when I get there? Anyone know the cost for the week? 2) Does anyone rent a...

I'm in need of a good product suggestion. I have a quaife dog box - and I'm extremely unhappy with the factory case gaskets... they leak very quickly no matter what I try. I've had the dogs and gears machined, and am putting the case back together this weekend. There's no chance I'm putting...

I need some thin wall (say, .040-080) aluminum tubing, somewhere near 3" OD, and somewhere between 12-24" in length. What I'm looking for is two thin-wall tubes, one that will slip snugly inside the other, so I can adjust the length as I need it. I can find the tube and cut it, but that's a...

Not a huge field but should be some good EP and FP prod racing. Another former SM driver, Bill Hingston bought an FP car from out east, has made some improvements, and is under the PPIR FP record, and close to the EP track record set by Tony Rivera 10 years ago. He may be the overall winner...

Folks, By show of hands, which way do you guys plumb your fuel lines? 1) Pump -> Regulator - > split to fuel rail -> all pressured fuel goes into injectors 2) Pump --> fuel rail -> Regulator -> return to cell Option 1 has the advantage of simplicity (no return line from the rail) but if any...

Current entry list http://www.motorsportreg.com/index.cfm/ ... 6B77C1A710 Class Totals: EP: 10, FP: 6, GTL: 3, HP: 3, STL: 9, STU: 6 Good to see Brett Whitney on the entry list, after his big fire at MPH last fall. Some new fast names in EP - not sure how much we're going to find out with...

OK, I realize this isn't going to help me win any races, but I'd like to learn something as always. I've redone my dash and center console, by welding some flat aluminum as a "frame", then mounting my gauges etc onto a carbon-fibre panel, which in turn mounts to the aluminum frame, mounted to...

Where did we wind up on the screen meshes on the front grill/bumper/openings/etc? I'm getting ready to refactor my front bumper/airdam and would like to push my current screen out near the front of the grill opening. It's currently tacked on the back of the opening, several inches from the...

It'll save me a couple hundred bucks to use some tilton 5.5" dual-disc clutches in my QuarterMaster housing. Far as I can measure, it all looks ok - the tranny-side disc for the QM has a 1/8" thicker splined hub where the disc is riveted - that's the only difference I can find. As the floater...

Hi folks - I am looking for a monoball/bearing housing - one that has snap rings on either end. Here's a few examples: http://ubmachine.com/monoballhousings.html The size of the monoball is 2.375" OD. This is for a swaybar mount. I'm ultimately trying to tig together something like this, but...

Hi folks, I'm looking for a threaded insert, which I've seen used as an inner heim-joint mount on a control arm. I was pretty sure UBMachine sold something, but I looked through their catalog this morning to no avail. This picture is not exactly what I'm looking for, but gives you an idea...

OK, after a lot of research, I think the Miller Dynasty 200 dx is what I want. Don't see myself needing anything bigger. Before I shell out the big bucks for one of these things, someone tell me I wouldn't be just fine with a syncrowave 200 or a precision tig 225... or the Thermal Arc ArcMaster...

My supply and return fuel lines both travel right next to my dry sump tank. I'm looking at some sort of heat shield tubing, but before I spent a ton of money thought I'd get a second opinion on this stuff. Anyone have any good experience with these sort of products? Here's one from Pegasus...
