I prefer the Schroth Formula 2x2 pull-ups. Call HMS in Mooresville, NC if you choose them. They can configure pretty much however you prefer them.

I used to buy Odyssey PC680s for my FEs - it didn't take a LOT of mods to the tray to fit. They were about 100 bucks compared to the $280 for a Varley Red Top 15 from Pegasus, so it seemed like the...
I think I picked it up from my military friends. Verbiage sanitized for public airwaves;)
Butch,
Thank you for recognizing that we ran 41 or 42 race laps without a full-course yellow. Additionally, there were no local yellows on Sunday that I saw, and only one short one for a spin and...
I used to race Club Ford with Tom Raber...more than 20 years ago. Were you able to find ANY part on that car with room to drill ONE MORE hole? LOL

Hey Victor,
I was thinking what Coop beat me to posting...you know I've probably done 50 events there and never seen that feature on the grid. They usually chase us the crew if they have shorts or...
I don't have an FM, but it sure sounds like a design feature similar to my old Zink Z-10 CF I raced years ago. There were two large dia. rods ends at the outboard end of the lower rear A-arm that...
Yet another vote for the fabulous service provided by Greg Jezarian. He and I have spoken on the phone and emailed over the past few years about race car stuff, but I only recently became an actual...
Just a lttle update to save Sean the effort;) My wife and I visited him yesterday and he is looking quite good, and is in good spirits. As we were leaving, they were moving him into the PT ward to...
Hi Everyone,
Sorry to not post on this in a while, but as Bill Maisey posted, things have been good and bad for Sean through the last week. However, since Saturday, things seem to have been on a...
My good friend and friend to many here, Sean Maisey, was badly injured in a motorcycle crash this past Sunday afternoon. He is currently in the ICU at the Medical College of Virginia, in Richmond. I...
Hey! I resemble that remark! :D While women continually confuse me with the "other" Mr. Cruise, our names are actually spelled quite differently....

FE cars came with the screen type. I sent my injectors off to be serviced this year, and they required cleaning based on the receipt inspection/test. I replaced the filter with a 10 micron unit....
Hi Russ,
Power is the RATE of making torque. Here's the relationship:
Power (hp) = Torque (ft-lb) * RPM / 5252
That's why power and torque curves for a given motor, plotted on the same...
Easiest thing is to know the diameter of the rear tire and the rear sprocket that's fixed to it via the axle.
Car Speed (mph) * Tire Dia / Sprocket Dia = Chain speed (mph)
[or you could...
Just looking at the picture in the lower right of the webpage Russ linked to, it appears to me that they do include a bearing or two. You can clearly see a part of the snap ring that would probably...
Didn't mean to start the AVGAS thing again. I think it just depends on the airport. Nice little Mrs. Waltrip that owns the Williamsburg airport (General Aviation Facility) doesn't require anything...
The fuel requirements for FE as stated in the Formula car specifications for FE (pg. 170) are that "Fuel shall meet the requirements for IT per the GCR." Despite the fact that looking only at the...
On my FE I extended the vent line with AQP hose all the way back until it exits the bodywork by the bell housing, on the side of the car AWAY from the exhaust. It is fitted with a one way valve. The...
Steve Lathrop thinks a radiator is a good idea (see above) and he should know!
