Hi John (et al), I saw the race on TV... The EP race was pretty bad vis-a-vis Triumphs. I'll summarize. Or at least try. The track appeared to be fairly dry at the start of the race, but I'm sure the

Street Prepared allows any form of carb or fuel injection. This is also summarized as: external engine mods are "free". So, you can't run a cam in SP (FSP for the Spitfire), but you can run Webers. N

This is correct. This is the same as the Production road race clasees, GP for the top two and FP for the bottom one. Apparently, this is a performance equalization issue. Join the club. Put the Weber

Just want to point out one minor fact... the Solo II specs for TR6 _requires_ 28 mm chokes. I guess they (the ubiquitous they, of course) don't want us making too much horsepower. I'm pretty sure SC

Hmmmmm, let's see. More horsepower (potentially - via higher airflow), and the rules let me drop another 100 pounds. With the Webers, the TR6 has to weigh 2000 lbs. With SU's or ZS's, the car only ne

I noticed a bit of a "clunk" in the race car last event and it took me 'till last night to "get a round-tuit". Anyway, instead of the prescribed .002" of end float, the number was "much larger". See

Howdy. Big Triumphs run in EP. GT6's run in EP. Spitfires run in either FP (1500's with a single carb or 1296's with the dual carbs) or GP for the 1147's. I'm not sure about any other Triumphs, but p

Depends on the classes. In a nutshell, the idea is that as the classes "increase" in allowances, the costs go up. Now, we're not all naive here - I think we all realize that you can spend as much as

Regarding SCCA/Vintage I really appreciate your attitude towards running your cars. That's why I've driven to R/A a couple of time and to Mid-Ohio to watch you play. In other words - it works for me.
