As I purvey the differences in the class rules throughout the world, I can only believe that disc brakes will only liquify. the class. The acceptance of disc brakes will drive a huge wedge between...

Thanks Dietmar, The belt on the car was so tight I could hear the belt short squeal on downshifts. It was tight enuf to turn the engine over turning the gen pulley by hand.

I'm going to guess that no student will be allowed to drive that car. The insurance companie's underwriters will not allow it. Best probable scenario is to get a benefactor who would pay to bring...

This car ran out of George Mazuro's shop as a customer. Car has original front slicks at all 4 corners. This was done only at Waterford as track was short and you would buzz 3rd gear. Dating the car...

Can someone give me a ball park figure what it would cost to ship a FF from NZ to say Chicago?

They held up fine when I used them with slicks. I am sure that vintage tyres would not load them as hard.
