It's been quite a while since I posted here on ApexSpeed and thought a fast lap was a good place to start.
The FST's ran this past weekend at Nelson Ledges and Doug Seim lowered the previous fast...

Just a guess, looks like an Adams Aero chassis (built in Michigan)

Colburn = NosTendo

Marty,

Same car, ran it under a different name

Matt, you're correct. Greg read the rules, picked the best package at that time and built a damn fast car.

Brian, CFF cars can run at Major events any time. They just run in the original class of FF, no biggie. And for the most part, CFF is a dead class even at the "Minor" level.

On FST inclusion, it...

David,
The "Tacky goes to Coventry" software is basically a global ignore.
The "target" posts, but only the original poster can see it.
Nobody replies to his posts, the target get bored and goes...

Doug,

This was were you applied the "Tachy goes to Coventry" software. Worked quite effectively.

I think this was Tyler Thielmann's old car. Very fast in it's day.

The car has been out of circulation for a while, but it was a great FB starter.

Woody sent me a note asking if I remember Radrog

New Zealand, but they allow mods to many front end components.

I think South Africa does as well, but not familiar enough with their program

Congrats Doug!!!
Really fast lap :checkered:

Looks to be a Lola T-540 with the front hoop and braces cut off

Just a WAG on my part

Great job on the new FST website. :thumbsup:

Something wrong with Coop's car, he pulled off at the end of the pace lap :mad:

Coop is back on track for his final race of the day

Went by pretty quick, but Coop finished up in 3rd in his first race of the day.
The second race is in about an hour or so.

These certainly look nice, but they many be a bit "spendy" for the typical FV'er

I think this was coordinated by the Colorado FST guys.
I was pretty much shocked a few weeks ago when a non-racer friend told me, "guess what, your mentioned in a Hot VW's article."

That's actually an FV from the UK.
Guy Bellingham knows all about it and I'm sure could add some detail.

Garry,

I'd bet the gear box is correct.
If your going off dash system info, the common issue is tire circumference.

Garry,
I think your MPH calculation may be slightly slow.
If you were seeing just shy of 6600 RPM, have the spec gear box and tires, your MPH should be closer to 120 than 115 :D

Ray sent me a couple more photos of David Cutts latest creation, enjoy

CAMS rules are fans with stock pulley sizes and no sewing machine fan belts, must be stock size and type.

And the crowd goes wild

A fiver says it's mighty close to 217 cm

:p

Wow, DC just can't stop building really fantastic looking cars.
Testing soon?

Yes, I've been Andy's trackside support at LMI for the '14 and '15 season.

IMO, the LSR is a very potent P2 car.

You'll enjoy it. ;)

Shawn,
