Might also be pertinent to know just what is " the car in question". I didn't see any indication that it was a FF.

Looking forward to seeing you at Roebling Road in Feb. Tell your friends.

I do remember the classes for that particular event were confusing to say the least. Back when SVRA followed the Monoposto rulebook it was much clearer. Since they abandoned that and continued to...

Well marketing could be an explanation I guess. I always assumed the "A" was just an abbreviation for "Atlantic". Seemed logical to me at the time as SCCA had already abandoned the 5000 cars.

I think the FSV cars are covered in the Monoposto F70 rules. They have a very clearly detailed eligibility platform that covers every air and water cooled SV up to 1979., see Monoposto...

The VDCA Board of Directors has decided to open up a new run group for next season. In addition to their existing Group 7 and Group 5 they have formed a Group 9, to include Monoposto F70 cars (thru...

Well stated Peter. Clubs like VDCA and RMVR (and others) do a fantastic job of meeting their members needs at smaller tracks in their regions. It's a decidedly different game when you're trying to...

"It seems that it more up to the car owners than the Organization owners. If we work together, we can make things happen."

And that, my friend, is exactly the point. We can blame the "owners" all...

"I've been fortunate to run with several Organizations and I'd have to say the biggest reason for combining the groups is unhappy customers who have gone elsewhere to play"

OK Gary, if that's the...

Does anyone know the reasoning behind combining Miatas with Group 2?

The "reasoning" is the same old story. At Mid-Ohio there was a small handful of Group 2 cars. You're not going to get a...

Let me chime in as well. I've raced with SVRA for over 20 years, through many different ownerships. I've been well served by this group and contrary to what another poster asserted, I've yet to...

Arrow Precision has the followers in a variety of diameters and heights. Check their online listing for VW 8 V.

Gary: I'll be there with the March running in Group 9. I'll be running the Crossle the following weekend with VRG at VIR. Will I see you there as well?

I had a bead seat (old style) that was damaged by a fuel cell leak. Lost major sections of the bottom half of the seat. I made some light gauge aluminum panels that spanned the area to be replaced,...

And for what it's worth the Chevron is a legal F70 car in the Monoposto Group. Not so with the newer RT4. Give some thought as to where you're going to race and with whom.

I'm in need of a drive pulley (XL timing belt style) for a Lucas Metering Unit as fit to Brabahm Super Vee engines (and others) back "in the day." Kinsler tells me it' a proprietary part made by...

Take out a shim. Try it or dyno it and see.

Thanks Brian, that's just the sort of insight I was looking for, very helpful.

In the case of traditional outboard suspension cars, what is the "rule of thumb" for the relationship between front and rear wheel rates?
