This is the one. I think I'd like to copy the idea, but use mounts similar to the engine stand

Not sure why the...
A while ago someone posted pictures of a big shelf or "tree" that was made to hold VW engines. I haven't been able to find the post, but I remember it being a somewhat novel storage solution.

Oh, frame PRINTS... for some reason I saw frame POINTS (I have an optometrist appointment next week!)
Definitely still interested, email sent.
Dave,
As in the engine/transmission mount locations?
I'd be interested in that.
I'm thinking about taking some models from grabcad.com and modifying them to be FV-specific. I'll share as soon as I...
If I only saw the second picture, I'd say it's definitely a Lynx/Caracal C, but I don't know about that frame.
The frame might be based on a Caracal?
I don't recognize the hardware either....
Would you mind sending me these documents as well?
It's a good question. For all the books I've read, I don't recall ever seeing any kind of troubleshooting guide with suggested adjustments for...

That's awesome. I'm glad younger drivers are getting involved in open wheel racing, especially FV and FST.
Is that third picture a spherical or steam engine?
I totally agree and I'm glad I'm not the only one who was annoyed by the announcers.
The announcers went on and on about tie fighters and name pronunciation...

Nicely done. I think we need more ambassadors for the sport. I'm going to meet some high schoolers in a couple weeks who are building an electric "super car" (wish they had that class at my high...
For those who have not heard, I purchased all the jigs and molds to the Lazer Formula Vee at this year's FV Birthday, which were then promptly stolen when I got home.

In case anyone does not know, I purchased all the jigs and molds to the Lazer at the bday celebration this year, which were then promptly stolen when I got home.

How 'bout in Texas?
Does anyone in Texas have a (recently made) Lazer?
Does anyone in Florida have a Lazer FV?
If so, please pm or email me. Thanks!
I'm just wanting to get my FST rolling so I can load it up in the trailer.
I was going to use some wheels and tires I have laying around, but not sure if they'll work.
I think the wheels are from a...
That in-car shows a lot more action than the sideline shot...
Awesome video! Thanks!
4.3. Any tires (brand, size, tread or construction) fitting the 13 x 6 rims may be used when the Chief Steward declares a rain race.

I'm trying to decide what to do for the front suspension and looking for a source for the nifty shock rockers in case I want to do inboard shocks. Any ideas?
What is everyone else doing? The shock...
Thank you everyone for all the great advice.
I finally got them in and I'll be posting pictures of the FST (if I can call it that yet) soon.
Thanks again!
It's definitely the ball joint spring adjuster
They're the stock springs... Are there different adjusters for stock and HD springs? I haven't measured the thickness of them. I thought the...
Yeah, ball joint beam ride height adjuster...
So the hole is the weird cross shape and I'm stacking the springs correctly. They fit through the original middle section...

Good to know since I'm currently converting my Lynx!
CAREFUL FOR THE DOOR WIDTH!!!!!
You can do a 5x10, but the ramp door is usually too narrow!
Very true... I have a '75 Lynx that looks a LOT like this car (without the extended roll hoop) and it's really not worth much at this point so I have the choice of converting it back to vintage or to...
