Car looks great. I'm sure the bar was just raised in 2016 with Dr Bill's new ride. Guess I better get back out to the garage!

That was exactly my point when Mike singled out slow FST tying up the FV. It's not a single class issue its a driver issue.

We spend thousands just like FV guys. We were taken out in Bowling Green in the lead by a slow FV with a corner and a straight from a checker that in the end would have given us our championship....

Imagine the frustration when the FST guy is stuck behind the FV. We can all play nice together. We all have to now almost every weekend. We are all striving for our own gold.

I guess I'm the hopeless Optomist/ Romantic. I decided to join the FST class in 2012. We purchased our first Evolution in 2013. I've lived through a share of the FV vs FST drama but granted no where...

Even the Red Headed Step Child can dream of being Cinderella at the ball!! Your right though Bill it's up hill to be included in the Runoffs but then again if it was easy anybody could do it.

We would be in with both cars I'm sure. Just doing a quick count in my head I bet we would hit at least 18. I bet 4 just from Nashville.

I had some good news today regarding our 2016 car counts. I had a visit from an FFDA driver from prior years that owns an Evolution. He would like us to go through his car and see what it will take...

I would expect a finalized schedule sometime right after the first of the year. There is discussion going on now with the current participants but I'm sure input from prospective drivers would...

Congratulations to the entire RGU team on a job well done. Competing against you made our team strive to be better every weekend. We are looking forward to an exciting season of close racing again...

Garry
Dont sell your car yet. We are planning on promoting the FST class heavily in the Tennessee area. With 3 cars here now and the population base just in Metro Nashville we are hopeful we can add...

Although it's not definite I know it's high on the probable list of 2016 dates for FST to run Atlanta in the 2016 Hoosier Series. We now have our two cars based out of Nashville as well as Dr...

It was a wild ride in this, our initial year in the Hoosier Series. In retrospect we accomplished more then I ever expected last April. Due in no small part to Rob Clark. His driving ability is...

Oh Man I really wanted to see a Schings/Campbell match up. FST founder kart match for a years worth of bragging rights. Come On Larry race him!!!!!!!!!

Linda will be racing for the Nuveau team and I hear Tracy is in also. I have several others that may be attending and racing also. I'm with Doug, I like keeping it crew. These wives & people work...

Here is the information on the final Hoosier Series Formula First race at Gateway. If you attended last year you know what a great weekend this is!

The St. Louis and Southern Illinois Sports Car...

Ask Larry Campbell, Jim Schings,& Rob Clark how many hours we spend on set up.

It works why change it. My two cents but our tire bill with Hoosier for the two cars should allow us to have an opinion and a spokesperson for advocating a spec tire for any class.

Linda and I will be there Friday morning and Robert provided us with a map of the preferred paddock area so look for our maroon & black trailer as you pull in.

We would love to have you join the FST family. I think you will find it to be a close knit group that will help you along the way. It truly is an affordable racing alternative. We are just finishing...

I want to extend an open invitation to all FST drivers to join us for a weekend of testing at Hallett. We will be there on April 25 & 26 2015. Rob Clark (2014 Hoosier Series Champion), Jared Smith, &...

This is not an endorsement of doing so or changing FV. I'm not going there & do not want to stir that pot. More hp can be gained in the 1600cc platform. I believe enough to keep up with the classes...

For starters dual carbs would give the most in one step but a good pair of the older Weber 44's will run you about $1,000. We actually have been considering building up an Air Cooled we think would...

Robert
It would be awesome if it could be complete by April 25/26 when we will be testing the NBA chassis from Campbell Motorsports at Hallett. It would be a blast to let Jared & Rob have it for a...

We just started assembly on the Campbell Motorsports Evolution FST Big Man chassis. It will accommodate a 6'8" driver with no problem. I will post pictures as we near completion and have a 6'7" 280...

I did forget we are building them for sale. $5,500 plus shipping for total motor. Rebuilds less depending on condition.

Greg- I prefer to not get into a lot of details in the Forum. It's easy for anyone to make a bunch of claims. We feel like we have worked out a lot of the haunting problems with the 1600 and provide...

We now have the Campbell Motorsports Evolution "Big Man" chassis at our shop. We are finishing up a new " Next Gen" motor for it this week and should be starting car assembly next week. We are...

Hans adjustable.

I realize there have been little to no changes almost since the beginning in FST. That's what attracted us to FST to begin with. But, earlier posts start mentioning changes to meet in the middle....

From an SCCA political perspective I feel they spoke to membership a few months ago with the disc brake decision/indecision/decision. That along with the " Concorde Plan" tells me they are not...

From our perspective I don't see the need to be included in the Runoffs as FST. We will be running two Evolution chassis FSTs in 2015. It's our goal to develope the MidWest series and run both cars...

I agree with Scott. Everyone is invested financially in their chosen class. New people that are interested aren't just comparing FV to FST. They are also comparing F600, FF and some FC. We chose FST...

Dave
Use a sand seal.

Linda and I are proud to announce that we have purchased the Campbell Motorsports "Big Man" Evolution Chassis. The front suspension has been moved outboard to allow more room in the pedal box area...

Linda says she can't wait till the 2015 season to make it the biggest and best season ever!

This last weekend is the perfect example of why we race FST. First of all, as new comers to this group we have been treated with the upmost respect. To Linda and I it's more than competing on the...

We are an FST company. I can really only speak for ourselves but I haven't chimed in because we really have no more than a passing interest in the discussion. We promote our class as every driver...

I have been a loyal Apex follower for years. Before we bought our first car I was on this forum learning from experienced racers. I follow it daily still and still learn from it. Just as in life you...

This past weekend Linda and I had the absolute pleasure of having Jared Smith represent Nuveau Autosport at Gateway. He along with his father Win Smith and mother Ellen were an absolute pleasure to...

We just received the same call. We had already planned to arrive Thursday evening with both cars. I know Chuck Singletary is going to be in on Thursday also. We will be in the very north end paddock...

Maybe we could persuade Bonow to venture to sunny Florida From the Frigid North in February to drive a car?!!!!!!

Marty, it's nice to be asked for the input. Personally start speed doesn't matter much to me. I'm usually at the back of the pack watching all the action. LOL. However this is my "Home Track" so...

Let me see how things go the next couple months we might just bring an extra car.

Since Butch and his wife have lunch covered on Saturday we decided to pack up our big commercial coffee maker and have coffee and pastries for everyone Saturday morning. Being an early race group we...

That's great news guys. We have had similar response here in the Midwest. Maybe we need to load up in January and head to Florida for a race in a warmer climate!!!!

Let's just be Old School and scatter all the tow vehicles around the track and turn on the headlights. That's real Midwest Redneck Race'n there. LOL

I just looked up Gateway because I couldn't remember and they do have lights. Maybe that's an option?

Maybe an earlier start time by an hour? Hope we can still squeeze in some decent time. We have lots of set up to do for Jared's car and Bill Johnson is getting some laps in the Predator/Mutant in as...

We just signed up both cars for the test day. They said they are over 1/2 way there now.
