Unfortunately, my long-term close friend, car builder, and support mechanic needs to retire from active duty.

I am seeking a mechanic that can do general chassis set-up, routine maintenance,...

I'm hoping to get objective opinions on the Avon A11's vs. the "new" Hoosier R35B tires on vintage Formula Bs (pre - 1972). I'm new to the class and would appreciate receiving the insights of those...

I can't say enough good things about Gayle and Jody and their Speed Seat Factory.

I have a 1998 Swift Atlantic and a 1968 Chevron Formula B that both needed seats. After having a local shop...

The Russians must be hacking my poll.

Several of the Vintage Associations that I race with are holding their year-end board elections. The contention surrounding the views of "Vintage-eligible" cut-off dates is very high and is a...

Good day all,

Rick Parent of SVRA has personally reached out to me and asked me to offer his apologies to Apex Speed readers for not posting a timely response. For an unknown reason, he has been...

Roland:

After I solved the high rpm miss in the engine that plagued my Swift in the first two races (caused by a faulty Pertronix Rev Limiter), I wasn't "held off" any longer. Here's the video....

Sorry....jumped in to the wrong forum....

Rick,

Great news....but, it brings up the question: If we intend to run both the Challenge and the Brickyard Invitational the next weekend, can we keep the garages, RV and Paddock parking spaces...

Did you change tire pressures, camber, caster and front ride height settings at all when going from the Toyos to the Hoosiers? Or, did you just go with your Avon/Dunlop set-up?

SVRA just posted that they are allowing the new Hoosier treaded vintage FF tire...only they don't stipulate eligibility for each of the run groups: FF, CF or PCF. Well, so much for standardizing on...

Marshall,

I posted the new SVRA FF rulebook simply to provide ease of access for the Forum readers. My intention wasn't to incite a debate. I have no issue with the SVRA rules. As to my personal...

Mike,

There are no options in regards to tire sizes (diameters) to achieve target ride heights. Only two tire sizes of the R888 are legal:

185/60-13 Fronts
205/60-13 Rears

If you show up...

Stephen,

Under the old (before yesterday) Post Club Ford Rules (contained in SVRA Tech Bulletin #TB2015-002 FORMULA FORDS REGULATIONS), the date range was 1982-1992. As of yesterday, Post Club...

Here are the new rules for all three SVRA FF classes for 2016.
