Stan - Back in the day I owned the MK6A that was originally owned by Chuck Witz and then Lou DeMarchi. Won my first national race in this car back when S2 was booming.

Probably my favorite car...

Bruce is great but I believe he is retiring, at least that was his plan a couple weeks ago. I would call him to verify that though.

If not Lindstrand I would look at Mitchell Racing services in...

I had the same issue with my VD side panels and had no luck. I locked the side panels down and exaggerated the "warp" going the other direction. Put a propane heater underneath of it for 24 hours...

Good number of youngsters in the mix and at the front, that's good to see and good for the class.

The SCCA results show Stevan Davis in a Vortech, can that be true?

Absolutely you can do it and most do exactly that.

Lots of Volkswagen specific things to learn but it is a great class and everyone is willing to help or share information. I've never been...

I am disappointed to see this.

There is no upside for our club in this. Some of these guys will race in FA, some will just go away or find other places / organizations to run in. In the end it...

Al is still in Kansas City.

Great guy, raced S2 for quite a while then went the vintage/club Ford route. Haven't seen him out in a couple years though but I think he still has his club Ford.

Have to admit, this has been a cluster. My apologies to all for the confusion and agree that drivers shouldn't have to "figure it out".

I won't try and explain where this went south, at this...

Disc brakes were voted on and approved by the BoD at the national convention, effective date is 1/1/2019.

Hallett is a great track with a wonderful staff, you'll love it!

Yep, third generation. Father Buddy and uncle Jacques both started racing careers running Vs in our club. Jacques won a national championship in the mid 90s. Both went on to the Indy car series...

Have to assume nobody really cares if it's a street radial or a bias ply race tire, the draw of the Falken tire is low cost and long life cycle. Those qualities already exist in tire that fits our...

Might think about a Vortech, I know a really nice one for sale :).

The Vortech was built to fit bigger person, Brad Stout, and can accommodate someone your size. Also the Vortech is very light...

Would like to thank Bill Gray, Rave Motorsports and the entire FST group for their hospitality this past weekend at Gateway. Incredibly nice group of people.

Was great to see all of the...

I have 4 manifolds sitting in my office right now. Looking at them I'm embarrassed how money I have invested in such crap parts. Runoffs last year I took my best manifold to Fred Clark in tech and...

Guys - sorry for the confusion here.

What we are looking for now is a simple yes or no on this specific proposal for disc brakes in FV starting in 2015, not input on disc brakes in general.
...

What's the layout for the rear suspension?? Can see the pushrods and bellcranks but nothing else.

Beautiful car.

The SCCA Formula Sports Racing Advisory Committee (FSRAC) is asking interested club members from the FB / F1000 Community to serve on an Ad Hoc Committee to develop an entry path for new engines,...

Mark, respect your opinion, just disagree.

Have a national manifold - talk about a waste of money for what it is, that ought to be a $20 part

I didn't say drivers never mentioned cost as a...

I'm relatively new to FV but not new to racing or the club.

Just my opinion, I'm not in favor of anything that makes these cars any slower than they already are.

If I have to add 25lbs to my...

Jerry - Who in Kansas City has chassis #1?

Bruce - I'm the "white nose" guy. We met at MAM in August.

First of all, I'm really, really sorry for hitting you. Didn't know it was you until your post. From a racing standpoint, not much...

Duane - I looked pretty long and hard for an easier option and I couldn't find anything. I made a template locating the 4 existing ears and the 2 new ones on the uprights together out of a peice of...

It would help if we knew what the application was since it is not a FB.

The biggest problem you have is there is nothing bigger/better that bolts up in place of the LD20 and still fits inside of...

Russ - It really is not that big of a deal. I did it when I converted a formula car to DSR a couple years ago. Take some good pictures, send in the old homologation certificate and fill out what you...
