They usually have them in stock, give them a call or send them a message. They have loads of different sizes.

He is in Granite Bay

I have what is basically the same car. PM me and we can set up a time to talk about it.

John

I talked to Ryan a few weeks ago and he is busy he was a few weeks out on my wheels. That was before the shutdown and I am sure that he is closed since he is in the silicon valley and that is closed...

To be clear, we had very stiff springs in our car and you still have the issues with rear Aero lift in the body work and a misplaced rear roll center.

There is a reason we all went away from the...

They were designed as a school car, so they are very roomy...

So Yes

I happy that it is in good hands. I may get out this year, we have our house up for sale and are going back to California, if it does not sell soon.. I will make a couple of races at the end of the...

We did the same with my car, and it solved my problem as well. Doug also added some floating rotors as well.

With a lot of work, you can actually make them fast. I had a really good crew chief. I set a track record (qualifying and race) at Laguna in 07 with mine, but they are heavy and need aero (Rear lift)...

No worries

I still cant believe that much oil could come out of a motor and it didn't go bang
If you need a hand at the track this year send me a note.

Dave,

Having worn the oil from your engine in the past. I am glad to hear you finally figured out a solution.

Hopefully see you at the track later this year

John

Yes this is your old chassis (front half) and body. It had a bubble round the shifter that I took out that I bet you put in also. I didn't need it for a FB.

The chassis has done some traveling, I...

Hopefully,

The car should be done, but I need to do a least one test day and I have some job things to sort out before I can run the car.

See you at Infineon

Cheers,

John

Ready to have the exhaust finished

I got tired of plumbing and wiring yesterday, so I assembled a set of wings and put the body work on and took a few pics
We tightend up the body in the rear, and kevin's packaging of the engine was...

Actually it is a refinement of what I had on my Maloy DSR, that worked fine once we went to solid blocks between the carriers and this is more robust.
It has a tie rod above and below the gear...

I had a chassis that I aquired with a formula ford, so I decided to build up a F1000. We cut the back of a Carbir FC off, and Kevin Mitz welded on a new back. It has taken at least 10 times as long...

He has the holders but not attached to a plate

You would need to get Doug or Pat Prince perhaps to make you some

Call Doug Learned at Fast Forward he has them.

Just a note, this is my third Carbir.

Brian has always been good to work with, helpful and has most everything you would need in stock.

Cheers

John

Before too long there will be a Carbir based FB on the west coast, so you can see for yourself.

Kevin Mitz has grafted a new back onto the the front of a Carbir FC car, and the chassis is way...

I quit running in group SCCA and sold my DSR after I got really tired of the really foolish driving I consistently saw in Group 2. Perhaps we should have a feeder system, spend a while running in a...

I suppose it could cost 10k to change engines, but last year we upgraded my DSR from a 02 GSXR 1000 motor to an 06. The 06 stock had more power than the built 02..

2 used 06 motors with wiring...

The cooler is 10.5 by 12 put in the biggest cooler you can.

I think it is the Setrab 13 X 10" 34 row cooler.. like I said LARGE. I will measure the spare cooler when I get home.

You could get away with a smaller cooler more like 13 x 5 or 7" cooler I...

The Arkens tried the oil to water cooler trick on their DSRs and by the end of the weekend they had oil coolers strapped to the top of the car to keep the oil cool. I do not think I have seen one...

My AMAC used rods and we had to have special plastic bushings carrying the rods and every thing had to be free or it would bind and not return
The way to get the shift linkages to work is to make...

Here is a picture of Matt in his Phoenix at Sears today.

It was running at the end and nothing fell off, so not too bad for a first time. He was being very careful, with 50+ cars on the track.

Never ever change chain lenghts

If you need more than one chain length, make 2 different chains.

Cool,

Something I can help with.

I run a DSR, one of the very first Maloys that had wood floors, so it was really a bit heavy. Lets just say more than a Stohr. I also had one of George Deans...

I have run FC and DSR.

The boost in power for a Modified motor over a stock one is about 20%, but you also really do get an increase in longevity.

Cars are not bikes we run the engines...

I can send you my dyno sheets if you like...

Over 180 at the rear gear is no problem, but that is before the restrictor. Your loss from there is bearings and CV joints to the tire.

It might be...

Just for the record, I am a former Karter. I went to DSR when it was cheap and cars were light. I think that for the road race and shifter karters they would not find this class intimidating at all....

Actually you need more radiator and you need a big oil cooler. You get a 180hp bike motor hot and it will blow up, and they really hate hot oil. My FC was 144 at the crank, the DSR is around 180 at...

Thanks Stan,

First I will get it all sorted out as a DSR, Perhaps I will look at a conversion a year or three, I will watch the F1000 with interest as I think they will be really super cars.

Stan,

I would be happier to see it at 1000lbs, I am over that now with all the body work and on the starts my car has way more power than anything around me, and I am ususally in the front part of...

Stan,

I am glad to see you have the weight at 900, that should keep the titainum nonsense that is going on in Xsr away. I went from FC to DSR cause I had no-one to race and I wanted to go faster,...
