Just

Welcome to Mini Sprints. What part of the country are you from?

Years ago we ran across a father son Mini Sprint team just transitioning over from SCCA class racing to Mini Sprints. They were having a bit of a problem also adjusting to left turn only racing. Their names were Larry and Scott Fasse. I turned Larry the dad on to a book written by Steve Smith Titled "Mini Sprint racing and set up". Well I guess Larry and Scott read the book. They went on to open up a store for Mini Sprint racing parts called "Speed Partz". Scott the son went on to write and publish his own book on Mini Sprint racing titled "Mini Sprint Racing 101". They even went on to sell their own brand of race car that they named the "Foz".

I understand Larry is retiring from "Speed Partz" this year. What he doesn't mention is that he was retired from working when he started "Speed Partz". Give them a call or Google search them. Buy both books from them, read them a couple of times and come on out to the race track. Talk to your fellow racers and ask questions, the books will help you frame your questions.

We depend on a half dozen tires and wheels to set our stagger>> several right rears and 4 or 5 left rears. We adjust air pressure only to help adjust the car to track conditions heavy or dry, never more than 2 or 3 PSI. Race tires are like children you can buy half a dozen of them all the same size and when you air them up each one will be a different size, to add insult to injury you can go out and race them and they might "Grow" or "Shrink" in circumference. Then when you dismount them and mount them up again they will measure out different again. Check your tire circumference and tire pressure immediately after the race and take notes, you will soon see a pattern.

Good luck>>>have fun>>> and if you are ever in the pits with us look us up.
