What about a stand alone event with select invited groups to fill the weekend like they do at the Formula Festival?
Run group suggestions:
FV
VFV
FST
Spec Miata
SRF
F500/FF/CFF
Think outside the normal club racing weekend format. Maybe create a series that utilizes a variety of venues, Rent a kart track midweek for the day or 4 hours. Next event, rent or race at a short...
Check out Hawke Racing Cars / Formula Ford Facebook page. Is it a bizarre coincidence that someone else is trying to identify the same model or is this the same car? Norm V, I believe you made a...
AutoTech adhesive remover or Rapid Remover by Rapid Tac are products I use.

Points work fine. Never had an issue with points and a condenser.
It's hard to tell in the photo what is damaged. If it's just the leading edge that is slightly bent up, use a couple of pieces of wood and pound it flat or use a wide nose flat sheet metal pliers.

Hahahahaha.... Yes, everyone spends $1200 on a paint job and $3000 grand for used regional motor. $150 to paint a chassis? A can of rustolium cost $5.00
Rod ends, you are assuming all rod ends are...
Please list how you came up with $8000?
I think someone could restore this car with some harbor freight tools and parts for under $2000.
Found some noses, just need to convince the current owner...
I thought this thread was getting really weird (especially with the vintage photos) until Nigel stepped in and gave us his marketing campaign. BTW, the tongue thing in the very first photo of the...
Nice video Peter, great run in an old Tiga! Couldn't help notice how you shift your thumbs on the steering wheel. Without giving away any of your coaching techniques, is there something to gain as...
What about a more modern Ford (Cosworth Engineered) DURATEC 30 V6.
Aluminum block and heads, 200-240 bhp stock, fuel injected, cheap and easy to find.
Just a thought,.

I was thinking a replica.
It's a Alfa Romeo 750 Competizione.
At a glance, I thought I was looking at a big naked butt in the top right corner of the photo. Like the hand print as well.
I was thinking the same thing. You got skills.

Lynn,
It's not clear in the MCSCC GCR and the following I found on the website "Our General Competition Rules are published before each season starts and are available online. Most of our open...
Here's my suggestion:
Talk to the cendiv SCCA license official (Bob Clark) and see if you can get a full competition license (skipping the novice license requirements) after completing the one day...
Hi Jim,
Midwest Council has a vintage run group, however, most vintage formula cars run with the regular formula car group. Council had more club fords then SVRA, VSCDA, and SCCA combined, plus a...
As mentioned in post #10, I can print or cut repositional vinyl ("fat head" material).

Your target market is extremely small. I pulled up some reports from last years 25 hours of Thunderhill and there was 2 or 3 cars in the fastest class. At the 12 hr mark a Chevy Silveraldo pickup...
At first I was thinking you were going to build a one-off car, then you mention clients taking orders. I'm not sure if your market is large enough to support such a project. Yes, endurance racing is...
What is the point of the plastic?
Right from the green flag your competition checked out. You needed to close the gap more and be on the power earlier before the start finish line. Can't blame the FF for the first half of the first...
Why don't you base it around the new beetle and use the transverse setup. The new beetle (1st gen) production spans well over a decade. Use stock components for uprights, brakes, driveshafts,...
I'll be at Blackhawk for the SCCA Drivers school weekend 4/26-4/28 at Blackhawk crewing for Brian Ell in a FF. It will be his first weekend participating in a SCCA event so everything will be new to...
So true - rules are rules. For those of you think that he shouldn't go unpenalized for breaking the rules, then why should we have a post race impound? Impound does not have anything to do with what...
I just read Paddy Obrien's post since I was typing my response when he posted and also your thread posting. I was assuming the buyer asked for $500.00 from you to look at the car since you used the...
First red flag should have been the $500 peep show. Why would you pay this? Your the buyer. You have travel expenses to deal with and if the seller really wants to sell the car, he should work...
Awesome link. Does F1 teams preheat the brakes prior to a run? It seems a bit crazy that a F1 driver can do one out lap and then a flyer (especially at a shorter tracks or even Monaco) if the...
Can you explain why or how they become dangerous when driven slowly. I've seen some slow out and in laps over the years and seen drivers park it in the corners and allow over taking driver by. I...
How bad are the panels? Try to make a 30+ year old piece of fiberglass that has battle scars, cracks, and crappy patch jobs from decades of racing look like a million bucks. Your car can't be more...
Hi John,
I have RF75. Do you have a RF73? Rare car if you do. I see you have Lotus 69 based on your profile. The RF73 (I believe the 73's are FA73)-RF76's frames are basically clones of the...
I assume you signed up for the school if you are required to be a member. You should be able to race on Sunday with a current SCCA license.
[quote=WAM;207044]Selling my car and buying another isn't a bad idea. It's just that my natural talents seems to only be in buying cars and I can't sell a car to save my life. (I still own a 7-time...
quick sketch with wings.
Do you need to look at a few formula fords for a better visual? I'm in Milwuakee. I can also use your help with a project I'm working on.

I had the same thought. Your rear hoop is also in question. Study the GCR. Nice work.

Just curious - what would a 1988 Indy car have on it that is so techy and that you don't see in modern day top flight club cars? I have a friend who has an Indy car and I know he is not an engineer...
