Re: Buying race car from Canada what should I expect?

Don't try this. It can land you in big trouble, or at least your new purchase stuck at the border for a period of time while they sort it all out. I heard a story about something like this that...

Re: Gold Crown Question

I don't work on one of the cars, so someone else will probably have a little better answer on bore/stroke combinations to get to the max of 360 ci specified in the rules.

They used to have to be...

Re: eldora format change

The one problem with parking one whole division outside is it makes it really tough, if not impossible, for the guys pulling double, triple, or quadruple duty.

Re: Old Open Wheel article

Interesting. Not actually what I was talking about...it just has a really different feel compared to normal power steering.

I never tried to turn it past the travel of the rack with the engine...

Re: Old Open Wheel article

You're looking for a Char-Lynn torque multiplier. I believe Eaton is their parent company now. They don't speed up the steering, but multiply the torque the driver applies to the wheel for power...

Re: October racing in Indiana / Ohio

Fremont is racing October 1. Their schedule shows "Open Wheel Shootout" with winged 410's, BOSS non-wing sprints, and winged 305's. That would be much closer to on the way to Ft. Wayne than some of...

Re: Fremont BOSS Results

I wondered who he was. He really looked good Saturday!

Re: Cam driven pumps question

In regards to the cam drive question, it's an option from most cam suppliers to have the back of the cam drilled and tapped for the rear drive. Most engine builders are capable of doing this as...

Re: shock help

I don't think I would be real quick to throw a shorter shock on there. Is the tire still on the ground when you see the spring off the perch? If it is, at least the unsprung weight on that corner...

Re: PLYMOUTH: DIRTcar Crate wing Sprint. Will it work?

The only thing I don't get is why all of these divisions that mandate smaller, less powerful engines insist on running wings. IMO, it would make more sense if they would get rid of the wings because...

Re: No way out 40

Actually, it hasn't held up in court. Way back in the 80's, M&H sued over a track tire rule that spec'd Hoosiers somewhere up in the northeast. They lost. There was a similar suit in 2007 that was...

Re: New Hoosier All 4 Rule

I'm glad to see Waynesfield has backed off of the "four Hoosiers" rule. I help with a car that normally runs the BOSS series on American Racers and that rule kept us away from non-BOSS races in the...

Re: Short driveshaft needed

I'm pretty sure DMI will make you a custom shaft. The big question is how much shorter does it need to be? If it's only a couple inches, you can usually take a bit off the end of a standard piece,...

Re: Wanted-Beast Asphalt rear sway

I'm reasonably sure that's the same bar used for the Beast sprint car rear sway bar (3/4" x 36). I don't have any, but it might help widen your search a bit.

Re: USAC Pavement Midgets

My observation as a pavement fan and sometimes pavement sprint car racer is the real difference in the cost of running dirt vs. pavement is the tires. Engines are basically the same. Pavement cars...
