The guy talked to said he was running 9's at 139!

I talked to a guy last night that is Drag racing a F500 car!
Has anyone else ever done this?
I never thought of it but could be fun to run some crazy times with these little cars.

Thoughts?

I just picked up a 1986 Red Devil maybe I will have to take out to a VARA event.

Thank you mark. It would cost a fortune to ship because of size and weight.

Thank you to everyone.
And RIP Brian.

Does anyone have plans to build a formula car lift.

She is the owner and has forgot more about cams than we will even know.

Edmund. You seem to think that 180-200 hp is not much. In a car like this you would be running speeds of 160-170 entering turn one on an oval!...That is damn fast when something goes wrong or a part...

Yes it looks like a lynx or a very good copy. It has been converted to a Zero Roll Set up. It would not be hard to put it back to a twin shock set up for vintage.

Rimco was the top VW machine shop in So Cal in the 70'-80's They were invovled with midget racing and because of the compression ratios cima barrels would be prone to cracking. We would have never...

A Lynx B is simple if no one has cut off the orgianl frame shock mounts. The Zero Roll set up was a simple bolt on easy to remove.
You will need a Z Bar and I have a brand new one from Fred Clark...

The Clevis is a good way of doing it and how most are set up. As for a source. I would look at aircraft spruce supply.
for the steering arms you wont find an adapter you will have to drill it out to...

The first 2 digits are the Region the car was taken to. In your case Region...

Thanks David. I was there in the early 80's and know Don. I have already talked with him. He thinks he may have the original drawings as well.
I also know Steve Lewis and knew Stan Fox as well....

Oh OK. I take it you know him

It was Augie Pabst

Hey Michael? do you know which car this is? I would think a very early one going by the flat bottom and the wheels.......not the centerlines used later.

Jeff

I am restoring it to the same condition it was in when Stan ran it with Pabst Sponsorship.
I have been in contact with Steve Lewis and Don Edmunds both.
I am going to San Francisco to pick it up...

Thanks Jerry

So that was his secret!

Thanks for all the input guys. A lot of good ideas to think about.

Jeff

Thanks guys. That is helpful. I was think of doing what Ed had suggested. But I do like the supports coming from the roll bar. And thank you for the picture.

Jeff

I was doing some test fitting in the Lynx I am trying to restore and have come to the conclusion that I need to widen the top of the cockpit.
My forearms hit the upper frame rails. Any advice or...
