    Talking Trans Am with David Pintaric

    Right front brake caliper seal failed causing me to have no brakes and to experience a small fire. That's three "fluke" incidents this year causing my DNFs.

    Talking Trans Am with David Pintaric

    I was running 25s on tires 30 miles past "junk," and felt like I left two seconds out there. Truthfully I think 22s or 21s are going to be needed. I think I can run those times. True story: last Sunday I complained about the motor feeling weak. A bad plug wire was found. What a difference! The...

    Wear and Tear from Road Racing

    Vipers are very robust cars. I raced a 2004 in SCCA's T1 class for several years. Touring 1 requires the car the be pretty much stock with some suspension mods.

    Rear suspension defect?

    #1 was on the initial test of my 2004 T1 car at Heartland Park, June 2006. Lance Knupp was driving and towards the end of the first session the car snap-hooked into the wall entering the "auto cross" section of the track (don't remember turn numbers at HPT anymore). #2, same car, 2009 Run Offs...

    Rear suspension defect?

    I've lost 2, maybe three, over the years. I never gave it a second thought because my failures were always on race cars, and thought the stresses of the track caused the problem. Maybe not.

    SCCA adds STO cars to GT2; Speeds up class

    Don't know the details of the GT2-spec Porsches. But I have been told there are faster slicks available out there than the Michelins we used in Viper Cup; those are endurance tires and pretty hard.

    SCCA adds STO cars to GT2; Speeds up class

    STO cars have been added to the GT2 class. The two groups are made up of very similar cars, Porsche 996 & 997s in STO and GT2, Vipers and Corvettes in STO, tube-frame full racecars in GT2, etc. There was a difference in tires; GT2 allows slicks, STO required DOTs. Now the two classes are...
