    Who's Racing at Sebring Intl. Raceway Nov. 22-24?

    I wish I were going to be there but a blown engine:( at VIR in October blew any chance at the championship. So the funds that were going to pay for finals are going to pay for a new engine. I HATE IT WHEN THAT HAPPENS. BUT AS THEY SAY THAT'S RACING. See you all next season.:2tu:

    Swapped the Sport Cups for Super Sports

    We ran the Super Sport on our One Lap car this year and they were fabulous. By the way we finished on the podium 3rd place out of about 60 cars with a 3rd place in class. The first American car on the podium in the last five years. And yes the pervious American car was a Viper also. They lasted...

    Cost to make SRT into ACR

    A really stupid amount of money. But this is what you get. And if you build it right you get to run the One lap of America and end with a podium finish. The repaint was done by PREFIX, yes the company that paints all the new Gen V cars. The is affectionately known as an ACR XXX.

    TRANZILLA vs TR6060 for replacement T56

    I would stick with the 1-4 stock gear ratios with 4.5 replacement for 5th gear and leave 6 alone. Otherwise you will find you are going to have to shift more then you want too. I have a 3.36 with a Quaiffe and I still find my shift points are much sooner than with the stock 3.07. That being...

    TRANZILLA vs TR6060 for replacement T56

    It depends on what ratio you have in the rear end. You might be hurting yourself with top end. If the tracks you are going to are short tracks and you don't need a lot of top end then the close ratio will work but if you need top end the close ratio might cost you speed as you will run out of...

    TRANZILLA vs TR6060 for replacement T56

    I have had a Rockland Standard Gear TRANZILLA in my race car for 3 sesaons and I LOVE THIS GEAR BOX. It shifts better than anything I've ever driven the 4.5 gear replacement (FOR 5TH GEAR) makes a HUGE difference on the race track. I have also had the stock box rebuilt in my street car and...

    One Lap of America Viper unveiled

    We unveiled our One Lap of America 2008 SRT 10 VIPER last Thursday at Prefix Coatings. The paint job on this car is truly unbelievable. This car belongs on the show car circuit, not on a race track. But, alas, it will be on VIR this coming weekend. We hope to get to most of the One Lap tracks...

    NARRA 2013 schedule

    Funny, I spent all weekend with the NARRA staff at the PRI show, up until Sunday @ 12:00 PM and no one had confirmed "Sebring IS being added to the schedule" as of that time. I am waiting to hear directly from the staff on this matter. I will post as soon as it is truly confirmed.

    R6 vs A6

    Guys, there is no cut and dried rules for tire replacement but the exerpt from Hoosier above is VERY good. If you are getting 20 heat cycles out of A6's & R6's you guys are luckier than I am. I use R100's on my car and they are basically junk after 6 heat cycles. Any body that tries to get 20...

    NARRA 2013 schedule

    Now that didn't take long for you to put this up. Your enclosed quote confrims what many have been thinking that the ACR-X's will run right along with the USGT races and just have their own class in our normal races. Which also implies that the standing starts are gone and will be rolling...

    Front Brake cooling for the track

    Remember if you use the ACRX rotors, they are thicker than stock two piece rotors which means you have to use ACRX pads which are thinner and will not last as long. Just go with two peice rotors IE: BREMBO and that way you can use good race pads that are thicker and less expensive than X pads...

    NARRA At The Circuit Of The Americas In 2013??

    Yes I would pay the price. I am planning on attending the F1 race in November and to think that I might be able to run on the same track next season would be a HUGE rush. We have run on some amazing tracks this season, and yes some have been more expsensive than others and believe me they are...
