13" 4 on 3.75" steel wheels - FF and Prod

I have two sets of 13" steel wheels from my PS/DSR build which longer fit the car... could be useful for someone for either some backup rains or a street toy. All are 4 on 3.75" bolt circle (old British cars style) 4 5.5" wide wheels from the original Formula Ford car. These are not a matched set; 3...

Re: Hans Device

I have one pre-FIA and pre-SFI labeling (older than the one pictured above). I sent it in once for re-cert to get the SFI label; no FIA label given, but new tethers of course (sliding, as pictured above). Just re-upped again two weeks again on my gear annual without issue.

Re: SCCA Future Runoffs Venue Survey

Yeah, seriously, they were on the list!!!

As was Willow, among other small local tracks...

Pretty sure it was just a complete list of everywhere that's held a Major etc during the season...

SCCA Future Runoffs Venue Survey

So I just got my SCCA Runoffs location survey emailed (goes to all drivers with an SCCA license). Which means now is as good a time as any to remind anyone here what we've learned from previous years of wasted surveys: If you want your opinion heard, BE SURE to answer YES or POSSIBLY to the question...

Re: OLD SCHOOL

I miss the chatter too... don't know that I see all that much on FB either, TBH... Saturday evening after racing used to be a good bit more social too; understandable that Covid kicked that in the nuts, but it sucks to see so many high-tailing it out of the paddock at the end of the day... both days...

Re: open paddock spots

I've nabbed one for my two cars for testing - but won't stick around for the weekend, so we can probably coordinate that if you're not at the track too early today!

Race fuel at track for Race 3?

Probably a dumb question, since it'll be the Big Bore Bash, but gotta confirm - there will be race fuel available at the track, correct?

In need of 100 octane unleaded for the P2...

Re: lower 30s on friday night

For future reference..., we were hit with similar stuff Friday night at PittRace... my P2 was outside, with only a tarp over the cockpit to keep the rain away (but body installed, retains some heat). Low of 33 overnight, but when we fired the engine in the morning to warm it up, the coolant and oil ...

Re: harness update

As I recall, RCIs are only SFI-rated? Which would mean they expire a lot sooner than the FIA belts...

We switched over to Schroth FIA belts (6-point) in the 924 - very high quality, and good for 5 years (vs. 3 for SFI)... around $360/set...

Re: Safes start Alternatives

As long as the green isn't held longer than absolutely necessary, I personally think we're good. All the procedural changes in the world aren't gonna keep people from pushing the wrong pedal. That's more of a remedial driver's ed topic IMO. That said, if we were to try a back-straight start, I'd be ...
