It is oil temp specific. ECU doesnt care what the water temp is.

Monitor your oil temp. In the cooler months you will need to block off the oil cooler to maintain 150+ on oil temp.

We have had extensive conversations with SCCA Staff, Board of...

This is my as Formula Mazda stance at this point.


1) We need a more defined explanation of what FX is. At this point the minimal information I have been given verbally is that FX is a class that...

Just wanted to clarify a couple of points and expand on this thread.

The fuel line that can be the sneaky culprit is the line that goes from the fuel cell, to the pump. Over time this line can...

We add 6 OZ per 5 gallons. As SOP we always add the 6 OZ to the fuel jug before filling it.

What can happen from time to time is the shift rail heads can rotate on the shift rails. When this happens the selector finger can slip from the 2-3 shift rail into one of the other gates before...

Cars came new with 6 in the rear 3 in the front.

The more pins you run, the longer your wheel centers will last. 6 in the rear and 6 in the front is your best bet.

If you are only running 3...

I assume you must be running a Pi data system. One of the lights (should be located top center) is the shift light for the Pi system. The other (should be located to the right) is your low water...

Both Pictures show that the car needs the Roll Bar Update (to be SCCA legal). The red picture shows the car with non SCCA legal rims.

Did I just get compared to Taco Bell???...HAHAHA!!

OK. Here are some facts...

- The Last 100% new FM was built in 2003.
- There was a new car built in 2004 that used the 4 port Renesis (out of...

This is how it has always been for the RunOffs.

Some competitors will sticker up for every qualifying session, and the race. Others will pick the two theoretical best qualifying session and...

I just wanted to change the topic of this Thread for a second...The overall vibe of this thread is kinda negative (IMHO).

So lets see who can come up with the best answer to the question;

Why...

We arent coming due to scheduling conflict. Our SCCA school is the same weekend as Sebring. We have 4 new drivers getting their license that weekend, so on one hand it is a bummer, on the other, we...

Here is our schedule for the year, and it looks like we have a Full trailer (5) for the majority of the events.

We are focusing on the Mid States Majors weekends, with a few Add on races.

Sounds good. Friday is a test day, might be a good time to get a little more track time. You could also come out the weekend before as we have member days available. You could then leave your...

The quick and easy answer is 1600-1800. There are some other factors regarding throttle response. It sounds to me like the previous owner was trying to fix a low speed throttle on hesitation....

The arms can be changed one at a time. The only dimensional change to the Arm itself was to accommodate larger inner and outer himes.

There is a proposed schedule change for the RunOffs. The proposed change would Group FM and FE (For the runoffs only). Those of you registered to race should have received an email.

An bolts are not a direct replacement for the FM. All the shear plates were designed for Standard bolts. If you want to go to AN you will need to ream all the shear plates to make them fit.

As far as the gearbox goes, Higher blips will help, but really the timing just needs to become a little smother. Be...

Check your belt placement. If you sit forward enough you will need to use the forward mount holes for the lap belts. Lap belts should hold you DOWN in the car not Back. Of course there will...
