NASA is talking about have the 944 cup run 40 min race on Sunday at 3:00. Sounds like more race time to work out the grid. Better for the better drivers with a bad qual time. Makes turn one less important i should think. tire managment comes into play as well. Lawrence

tried to post this a while ago so i hope its not a double post. Is the sunfire approved anywhere in IT? i know they made this thing in a 2.2l and a 2.4l model. did they make a 6 cyl car at any time? would this be a car to look at or a bomb.

Noting to do with racing in any way. Driving from Greensboro NC to Danville VA last night about a one hr hop (lite rain) in my nice white king ranch ford truck I am passed by three tractor trailers with a load of turkeys in cages. :o Yeah the white ones that die on the way to be killed in Nov...

I have talked to some guys ( mostly older ones) who get an IV drip of saline before a long race or high heat high risk heat stroke races in the south. They call it a splash and go. Are any of you guys doing something similar? They swear by it and I was just wondering if there are regulations...

I see several of these things around and dont know anything about them. Where do any of them run? Is it a ITS car or ITR or what? For than matter is it a front or rear wheel drive car? any support in aftermarket or over the counter parts? They make a MX3 to I think with the very small v/6...

Is anyone racing and having fun with the 944S this year? We will finish ours in about__ a week or a few months_ I will be in Dallas all next week so no work then. I havent been here or looked around racing for the past few months :( so I am a little out of touch. Just wondering.

I know some of you guys know about droop limiters. Most have them built into the front shocks or struts. Is tuning with them legal in IT? I know that short strut housing like the VW Golf on the front of the 944 will stop inside wheel sping almost as good as LSD. Can be tough to tune and may...

Seen someting on Speed TV over the weekend. Water for ballast. Some kind of blader that will flex to -30 dergees and bolts to the floor,comes in different sizes too. Legal in IT? Makes sense,water is heavy. Add some or take some out. Has bolt pattern to keep it from moving around. Lawrence

Well as I posted here the other week I sold my prod car. I know better but!!! I want something to play with again. I was considering a 240. I dont know anything about these cars other than it will cost me less to play with than the Porsche did,I hope. I have been told the engines will crap...

Well I sold my race car. Dont know what to do with myself now. Open weekends I guess. :birra: I know!! I will get a golf cart and ride around the paddock and screw with you guys. I wouldnt do that,I would do it this way. Is that legal? I will ask the guy next to you if thats legal. You...

Does anyone run the 87 MB 16 valve car in ITS? How is it and how long will that engine run without rebuild? I know it runs at 2800# now. What HP does the engine make. In short will this car run with the 240Z,2nd gen RX7 or the BMW? Lawrence

What is the best (if any) Accord for ITS/A? Would the prelude be better? How are they doing in the class? Is the 4 door or two door Accord the best one? Things like that. In short would I be better building a civic or something else Honda? Lawrence
