Thank you. That makes perfect sense.

I am curious. Is there a reason why FVs do not wrap their headers? Or at least the sections of the pipes that pass under the valve covers?
Thank you, R

First of all, thank you for your advice and info. I never considered tire temp but is something I need to start monetering. I was only concerned about the backspacing on the front. I am currently...

I need sone advice on wheel and tire combinations for a Solo Vee. I have been autocrossing one for about 6 years now and am questioning my current wheel/tire set up and would like to have opinions...

I found where to pay.

After much deliberation, I would like to post my car for sale. The problem is I can't find a way for me to list it on the classified for sale. How do I post and add pics? Thank you

Ok, maybe it is time to start writing letters and phoning.

Like many of you, I was very interested in this event and disappointed that they will not be including OW or SR. In fact if you track my posts I had planned on getting rid of my Solo Vee and...

A custom set of Kadron carbs from Kaddieshack. Or thinking out of the box a set of split Webers like were used on the Austin Mini. Of course custom manifolds would have to be fabricated.

Just wanted to thank everyone for your comments and suggestions. I am going to take a few months to weigh all my options but am pretty sure I will go with the Formula Continental. I know it will...

Let me begin by thanking everyone for their input. I am going to reconsider my choices but have one last question. I went back and reread both the GCRs and the Solo rules. In the GCRs the weight of...

I have been looking but they seem to be few and far between.

You are correct . I miss read the rules.

You are correct

Looking at rules,they must weigh 1180 lbs with out driver.

Let me begin by saying that at my age I doubt I could be nationally competitive. Also for the past 7 years I have been running a solo vee and want something a little faster and with better handling....

Burlky, thank you.

I live in Melbourne. Not sure where James lee is.

Thank you, Pru. An idea really worth considering.

Thank you. Being as old as dirt, I must be realistic. The thought of actually being competitive at a national level at my age is not even as issue. However, I am at the point I want a change and...

I am currently autocrossing a CM solo vee with limited success but am thinking it might be time to change cars and class. Before I do anything too stupid, I thought I would get some input from...

I am currently running a solo vee but am considering changing to a FF. When I looked at the results from the Nationals, I noticed the field was dominated by three makes: VanDiemen, Swift and...

I was in no way patting myself on the back but just trying to provide helpful data that is relevant to the topic. Hoping this info will provide useful info for someone selecting tires and how they...

This post is to share the date from a Saturday practice session and a Sunday event in central Florida. Air temp both days reached the mid 70's track temp 66F Saturday and 85F Sunday. These were the...

Happy Holidays All.
Tony, which Avon compound are you using?
I might be able to help with this discussion, because I have been planning to do some testing.
I am going to purchase the...

Could someone point me to the live feed link for the nationals?
Thank you, Richard

Thank you. I did misread the post. Richard

Thank you and I will contact Taylor. MrGas, if I read correctly I can bolt the Hewland ring gear directly to my swing axle diff carrier and the input shafts are the same. So this would make the...

I need some help and advice, especially from the FF people who have experience with the Hewland MK8 or 9. I would like to convert a Hewland Mk8 or 9 to a swing axle setup. However there are three...

"because Vees aren't as cool as FF's"..................................... Really

First, Thank you Mr. Wizard for your observations. I totally agree with you about the hp and where it drops off. As I said, the dyno guy suggested race gas and moving the timing up a bit which...

OK, I will try to attach pic and dyno............wish me luck.
Remember: Even a blind squirrel finds a nut once and a while. ;-)

The Weber is a 44 IDF. Top end might be determined by cam choice. The VZ has a lot of lift but not the duration of the W110 If you tell me how, I will gladly post the dyno sheet.
Richard

I run a 1915 with the single weber, VZ14 cam, ported and polished heads and pump gas with 32 degrees of timing. Just dynoed 120 ft lbs torque and 92hp at the rear wheels. The AF ratio was really...

Are you going to be now including us solo vees in this list?
Thanks, Richard

I am looking to contact a Florida member that lives near Orlando. I need some information pertaining to the Hewland that is used in you FM cars. Also might be interested in purchasing a Mk 4,7,8 or...

Hello all, my name is Richard and I am a Solo Vee owner/driver. I am also one of the people that petitioned the SEB for changes and suggested several options that might make our cars more...
