Since my motor needed to have some material taken off the deck. So, I figured I needed to check the static compression ratio. It was originally built by Alan Jones for TC Kline's World Challenge team in January 2001, so it was a bit of an unknown, other than the 84mm piston overbore. So here's...

I just thought I'd bring this topic up for your consideration. With the new requirement for SFI spec'ed 38.1 Head and neck restraints comes a new item to replace: the helmet teathers. BMW club racing has required these for about 5 years now, and this is coming up for non HANS devices that...

I did a corner ballance on the Z3 last Saturday. I'd planned to install 45lbs of weight. I didn't bolt it down in case I needed to move it. Well when I finished I had 695 on the LF and 696 RF, but my total weight with ~7 gallons in the tank was 2763lbs. So I'll need to add more weight, maybe...

A associate has a 73 Gt he wants to move. The body's solid with no tin worm, but the rubber around the windows is shot and the interior would need work, and the paint's oxidized. I'm thinking that since this car's so old I don't even need to worry about smog, it can remain a dual purpose car...

So where does every one get their Ho-Ho's? Anyone buy from Hoosier West in Fresno? They do seem geared to the roundy-round and drag race set. Or are we going to stand with a gentilman's agreement and run Nitto's?

In a West Coast Regional Championship series?? Josh, As a side note, I noticed the number situation is pretty plugged up in IT. How does a visting person get a number when all the numbers are already perminantly taken?
