Sometimes, a person only gets one shot at a unique opportunity! If I had any of these Lola's. I'd have registered already! (I liked the T70 most)

I would ask Scott Young and just do that. Then I'd buy a case from him as a thanks for the advice.

Thanks Mike but I need to acquire some 8" and 10" wheels first!

That might be how long it take me to save enough for a set of FB tires! :D:p:thumbsup::greenflag:

I've seen several CFs with data/digital dashes but not on VFFs.

Curious if the FC through 1990 includes some of the FSV designed as FSV tailed off. I wasn't around then but I thought that FSV was classed with FC when FSV participation dropped. I know that Zink...

If you're small, I might be able to help with a suit!

Check with your Vintage organization. Some Vintage groups don't want Data on VFFs. Neither of my VFFs have data acq but the rest do!

Registry's are always started out of passion but it helps to get a couple "attaboys" or pats on the back to keep them going! I've reached out to a couple of the names I recognized in the Registry to...

I agree that the Alexis is one of the prettier cars!

The Hoosier tires are very good for equalizing the field but there are still some cars that are faster than others. For the 3 models you...

I'd guess it was R.D. Enterprises:

If you haven't visited Eric Langbein Racing, it might be a good place to start. He's in Annapolis. I think he services quite a few in his shop.

Not sure what you're being so sensitive about, I didn't mean to disrupt your safe space....

After I clearly said I wasn't around for the series originally, I clearly stated that I was posting the...

I wasn't around for this series originally but having a T326 project, I had downloaded the Monoposto rules, which say (bold underlines are mine):

I'm a huge fan of doing Vintage in the most correct "period" manner and hopefully you find a friend/partner/helper of Mr Hart's that knew the direction that he was working toward.

OTOH, if you...

I contacted John and about his website and after several months of discussion and work, my expert son hit a few buttons, checked a couple boxes and got everything back available on the web! He even...

I have a friend here in TN who has MANY Ducati bikes! He really liked the single cylinder, smaller displacement models but he's finally getting motivated to start selling some stuff. I'm guessing...

Steve Lathrop has forgotten more about these cars than I'll ever know but I will add that the newest one on my unofficial Registry was a kit from 1975, just as the Z12 was getting ready for...

Here's another source of pictures from IMSA Formula races, listed as FF and FV:

There are some Beach resources that Google found for me. Also, I think John Ridings and Edward Ziegler (Houston) are Texas Beach experts. I've chatted with John about his Zink Z5 but he mentioned the...

Are you looking for original steel wheels, which were originally Dunlops (or one of a couple other, less popular brands) but are being made new in a similar pattern by Weller and others (including...

Which gearbox? I have a 14/36 for a Mk 8/9 I'd part with.

The diameter of the piston and the caliper bore are sized to fit the appropriate o-ring. If this were my car, I would contact a good machine shop (maybe Richard Pare at ICP?) and have him duplicate...

50:1 means for 50 oz fuel, 1 oz oil. So for a 50:1 mix, he would put 12.8 oz in a 5 gallon jug

Another suggestion is to post a "Wanted Ad" with a picture of what you're looking for. Since the diameter range can get a fair bit smaller than 12", you might want to post a minimum size you want. I...

I googled a little too. Saw a kit for electric conversions of classic cars and includes the single motor, controller and regen brakes, listed at 250 lbs. The battery weight would depend on the size...

I will be interested to follow as a 2012 Leaf owner and had leased a 2021 Leaf+.

Excellent idea, never too soon to start.

Thing is, the market for new cars is very small. I wonder how many brand new (not rebuilt or refreshed) cars come into SCCA every year. What ever it is,...

Logbooks started in 1972 or 73, if I remember what I've read in the past.

I'm not seeing the similarity to my T326. (Picture before I worked on it)

Glad you found all that info, I was trying to earn money the old fashioned way....

Hopefully this Region has all their original records. There have been many cases where the info was lost in a...

I'm woefully uninformed about FVs in general but I have started a Zink and Citation car registry. According to Ed Zink's nephew, Ed was irked at the model name "C4" being used on his Z5s! Hopefully...

Last weekends Vintage FF race, multiple HSCC champion Cam Jackson borrowed a car, started last and in mixed conditions was well into the top 10 by lap 2. The blue March he passed last was a car he...

John,
Since your location is listed as "New England", try giving Lee Chapman or GMT Racing a ring. They seem like a really big, well stocked Vintage race support group! Also, Eric Langbein is in MD...

Eric has some familiarity with the RP3A as the previous owner of mine used Eric.

John,
That March 729 is in SoCal now. I'm not sure where that gearbox came from but my 1971 March 719 has a Mk8, which I confirmed with Hewland Classic to be one of the 3 sent to March in the winter...

Not a secure website but here's the link:

Thanks Chuck. FYI, that ad already expired or was removed.

BTW, I'd love to have the car info on the Registry I started almost a year ago! I need more info in the coming half year before my son goes off to college and gets his college life on....

Eagle has a specialty department from which I have purchased 3 custom fuel cells in 2018 and 2019 (March 719 and two Zink Z16s, each different).

From my research on Zinks, the "C4" nomenclature...

Also know that the Zink Z5 FV won 6 SCCA Runoffs including 5 in a row! That was 5 different drivers. Absolutely changed the game when they came out.

Yes, higher resolution pictures showing the front and rear uprights would be helpful.

The roll bar number will give the Region the car was first teched when it became mandatory around 1972. Your...

I had that once on my HFF, fixed after changing the Grose jet. The seat was old and not sealing properly, which actually was flooding my engine briefly before it could clear out. Fixed before the...

I don't know about the latest Les Weller wheels (Wiz) but I got a set of Wellers from David Clubine back in 2019. I'm sure he'd be ok with this information being posted:

This car has no idea how lucky it is to have been picked as Graham's next project! This is going to be neat!

Anyone notice the 5 lug wheels? Unique!!

With a front rad car, I have just poked the nose out of the garage (gravel and grass in my case) and loosened the hose clamp. But here in TN, I just leave it empty.

Since you said "a pin hole leak in the side wall", I assume that you see the hole and it is in the sidewall. As soon as I read that, I thought about T1 or T2 at Willow Springs with a pin hole in the...

I would replace the tire. I've never used sealant on a race tire.

The only reason I would use it on a car or trailer tire is to get to the next tire shop on a trip.

There was a guy named Jack Butterworth (I think that's correct spelling) who sold some on FB a while back. They were reproductions.

I've bought several decals from the UK here:...
