Driverz Cup 2023-5 Road Atlanta with VDCA

Thank you Driverz for another great season!

18 cars started the race on Saturday at Road Atlanta for our final event of the season! Rain was a non...

Hey Joe,

There is a good tech page on DriverzCup.com that includes instructions and a video along with some other good tidbits. I'd paste a link but I'm using someone else's computer and I can't...

Joe, which of your Citations doesn't have the front mount - black or orange?

I haven't seen a ton of Citations but every one I've seen has a front mount. Makes me wonder if you're missing one....

Thanks all for the replies!

I do have an inline cylindric aluminum body fuel filter. I've had it open a few times to check for clogging and will do so again, may be time for a new one.

I have...

Hi, hoping someone may have some advice. I have regular issues with the carb fuel needle valves either sticking open or closed. I change them out, blow compressed air thru them etc but it seems every...

Friends, registration is now open for Driverz Cup's annual early fall race with VDCA at Roebling Road outside of Savannah, Georgia!

Drivers Cup features single class racing for SCCA FV's using...

Really glad school went well for Caroline and yourself - yall did a great job preparing and driving!

Just FYI, both Roebling and Road Atlanta are short box tracks. Road Atlanta apparently used to be a long box track before they added turns 10A & B - at least that's what I've heard.

We only use...

Great Joe, I saw the two of you had registered for Roebling. I'm planning to come down to help out and so is Zach from Driverz Cup. Greg who started DZC will be instructing and running with your...

FasterRam or anyone else attending an SCCA school, just a suggestion - ask the community for help if you need it.

If you need crew/support for the race weekend or maybe need a set of tires/parts...

Great info, thank you!

Great video, really appreciate the tech tips CCS has put on the site!

I couldn't find the 7" x 5/16" grade 8 bolt locally so I had to order one on Amazon. Slid into the spindle fine but the hex...

Hi all,

DriverZ Cup is racing at Road Atlanta on November 14/15 with the VDCA. There is an open invitation to Challenge Cup and any SCCA FV drivers who would like to participate running DZC or CC...

DriverZ Cup will be racing at Roebling Road with VDCA on Labor Day weekend! DZC seeks to build the sport by using lower cost street tires in the Southeast,...

Looks like a FV with an improved front suspension and 1600 engine. I used to run an FV with 1600 autox years ago but I can't guess as to which class this could be anymore.

I will say that the...

Appreciate all the replies!

I am pretty sure the insert is a solid design and not a helicoil. This occurred during my race school when I pulled the plugs while chasing a different problem. I...

Hi,

I pulled plugs the other day and a thread insert came out with #3 plug. I haven't tried to separate them yet but afraid the insert is rusted to the plug and will be damaged when I try to get...

Hi, new guy question related to measuring toe. I attempted to do this using a trammel bar but I must be doing something wrong. I loaded the car with driver/fuel weight, bounced the car & rolled it...

Thanks Matt!

Yep, can only do RPM with the more expensive DL model in the Solo2 line. RPM pickup comes with the MyChron5.

The 5 also comes with choice of CHT or EGT temp sensors. Confusingly...

The AIM products look like really good medium budget options. Reading specs the MyChron5 and Solo2 appear quite similar. Looks like the MyChron5 does not have an accelerometer where the Solo2 does....

Just want to say thank you to Greg and the Driverz Cup team for hosting me at Road Atlanta and answering all my questions yesterday. You all were great, and the event was terrific!

Thanks very much for your thoughts on this. I've loaded up RFactor (1) but the old RFactor Central site seems to be abandoned & fairly broken. I can't find the FV or VFV mods to download. If you all...

Hi,

Wondering what you all use for racing sims that can replicate FV / vintage feel on real US club/national tracks? Years ago someone built an FV mod for the original RFactor simulator but I'm...

Thanks Daryl, I would if I could! Unfortunately, 3 college educations dictate this is an either/or situation. Not an easy decision though I agree.

Thanks Steve! I am in Columbia, dead center of the state. I really like the Driverz Cup approach and will be looking into that as I get closer to making a move. I appreciate the offer to share info!...

Thanks Greg, I thought that D13's had aero issues that challenge their competitiveness, is this not the case? I like the looks of the Citation cars which also seem to have a lot of room.

Again,...

Thanks for the replies, very good to know!

I'll look for drivers in South Carolina that may need a hand at local races to get a better feel. If anyone is looking for help please send me a PM and...

Hi, I'm considering getting into FV and I have a basic question: is it possible for me to both drive and maintain the car at an event by myself, without crew? I used to autocross a D13 and that was...
