I am looking for an old Formula Vee. A Caldwell D13, Lynx B and Zink C4 are my preferances. I have exhausted all leads on the Vintage forum and the Formula Vee forums. I am hoping that those of you in the IT world might know of one tucked away in a corner of a prep shop or a friends' barn...

Class C diesel choices, what are they? Quality differences? I know of the Gulfstream Endura. A little too pricey for my blood. I also have heard that their quality has fallen over the last several years.

Any way to put someone on your own 'ignore list' so that you can view/read threads without having to view/skip over their posts? ------------------ Daryl DeArman

I have been out of IT type cars for a while, but my daughters are expressing an interest in karting. If they do the FFord has got to go and I might just have to play a little with the Honda then again I might just have to get a shifter. Do you think it is a good fit in the 'new' ITA? How...

I know it's not IT, but Saturn fans out there might be interested to know that at California Speedway's drag strip the fastest pass ever in a NHRA ProFWD was made 8.028seconds at 186.12mph. Not bad for a FWD 4cyl! They (Lisa Kubo and her team) need to get within 1% of that run today for it to...

This clause seems to come up fairly often. However, what about this? ITCS 17.1.4.B "...other than those specifically allowed by these rules, no component or part normally found on a stock example of a given vehicle may be disabled, altered, or removed for the purpose of gaining any competitive...

160 vs 260: Are they both suitable for Road Racing? Where is the cheapest place to purchase one? (I race with VARA and they don't sell them, they rent them).

Who's attending the enduro? I'll be wrenching/fueling for a FF on Sunday, would like to say hello to any members on this board who will be racing. --Daryl DeArman

Help! I really take pride in being able to do most everything on my cars myself, but I'm stumped. I have been attempting to make new SS hose assemblies for all my oil and fuel lines. I have purchased Aeroquip AQP racing hose and have Earl's re-usable swivel fittings. I wrapped the hose with...

Here's the scoop. I am helping out a new Group5 Rally team. 3 events and they got their first win this last weekend! I am new to 13B 6-ports so here are my questions: Should I wire the 6 port actuators open? The motor will spend very little time below 5000 rpm. They currently do not...

I had the opportunity to assist in the teardown and inspection of my old motor. 12A. It failed during its' 5th season. 3 years for me, 2 years for its' current owner. Other than the obvious "rebuild after 4 seasons" what could have been done differently? The front rotor broke an apex seal...

Does anyone know of a dial type prop vavle with the correct threads for a 2nd gen rx7? If not, and I go with the standard 1/8NPT, could someone tell me what threaded adapters I need? Thanks, If it matters the car is a 87?(friends) rx7 w/5 lug brakes.

The Formula Ford is not going to make it on the track this season. I can't stand being out of the seat this long so I am going to 'time trial' my daily driver. Help!! The car is a 2000 Civic HX. It is stock! The tires are Kumho 716HP4 195/60-14. I would like to drive the wheels off it and...

Okay mazda guru's...a buddy found a "good deal" on a 12A to replace another burned up motor in his Rx7. Long story short...motor runs great...needs a water pump. We can not find the correct pump. He knows this is not a legal 12A motor and will be running it with the AROSC which only cares...
