I reuse the bolts.
Unless you just want to spend the money, I've never used aftermarket connecting rod bolts. The people to contact if you want them would be Sparky Grape, Richard at Rilltech, or Greg moon.
If you're referring to this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OWXXiXyKKyc the driver is brand new to this car. I'm quite confident he'll be a lot more competitive towards the end of next year in...
Thanks Chuck for the clarification of what you look at for data purposes. I will refer to that data for this example. Since you obviously like to talk more than you like to present facts that back up...
Could you please supply some data to back up your claims ? What you posted is clearly your own perspective.
At this point it's all speculative. If you take a look at last years results, I'd say the two stroke had the advantage. That's comparing the same chassis with a four stroke to a two stroke. Same...

Leon mitchell and Jay novak can build new ones
99% of the driver left foot brake and rev match for shifting
Great! You can rent the national championship winning car from the 2017,2019,and 2020 runoffs. I'm always there and usually have an answer for most questions. Tracks are limitless as long as you're...
Not sure what your point is....
If I were you I would rent a car first. You'll have a chance to talk with guys that's changed over and get to see their perspectives on things before and after the change. You'll also get to see...
This is what was said for the last six years about a two stroke period. I'm pretty sure that can no longer be argued. BTW, a 494 still holds the track record at road America after a week of the...
It's the design that needs to be looked at. If this is the car I'm thinking about the design was good. You just need reliability and then learning the shifting part which can be done on the...
I'm for this but there's currently no 494 car/driver combination in the class that's capable of winning if the rules were to be changed
I'm glad you read magazines. Next time you pick a few up please post the differences in HP from magazine to magazine on the same year model bikes.
I think at this point in the game the weights need to be evened up then trim the remaining balance of performance with the restrictors. Now that the two stroke is about 1mph faster on top end (same...
When you see the horsepower numbers on the dyno then you can believe them. Every magazine is going to be different from one another and every manufacturer will always boast the highest horsepower...
Not enough to see an increase in MPH.
I wrote in for the rule change because the suzuki motors are the same from 2011-2020. I asked for 2011-2019 because I didn't know if any revisions would be put in place before 2020 was over. Even...
Thanks John! Yep, we had some great races! I can recall a couple of time we got chewed out for "Racing on the checkered flag lap" and your excuse was " I was trying to keep my tire temps up so i...

The wiring harness,ecu,throttle bodies and air box will be different. The best thing to do is to buy a "car kit" off of ebay like the in this link....
Figure in about 35lbs
I'm pretty sure Chuck Mcabee run a 493.
Exactly what do you think they're doing with the restrictor and weight adjustments? What adjustments do you think should be done above and beyond what they've been doing?
Runoffs winners...
R-Factor 2 is the one I run. Matt,Sven and Ryan run all of the platforms most likely. As far as what's being done to get the most out of them, We're just taking an open wheel car and tuning it until...
For me it helps whether I've been there or not. At VIR I picked up a lot just by adjusting my lines and trying different things along the way. At INDY it was even more important simply because of...
The fewer laps would make it a little cheaper. How much cheaper would vary from track to track of course. At any rate, if you're on track and spending less than 1600.00 a weekend all in you're doing...
USF2000 in R-Factor2
My opinion of this thread is simple. There's guys that can spend very little and make it work and guys that can have a blank check that couldn't win if their life depended on it. I know of at least 5...
Wow! That's great management!
Breakdown of a typical weekend:
1) Entry fee 475.00-900.00 (regional to majors)
2) Travel costs with a tow rig that gets 12mpg 36.00 (200 miles round trip)-133.00...
I spent 1500 initially and that included the computer (thanks Matt strand) , the monitor and the wheel/pedals. That's enough for the majority of the people wanting an entry level SIM. From that point...
The best professional driver coach I've had was Kelly Jones at Racecraft1. If you're lucky enough to get some time booked with him you'll soon realize how far you're off of you're potential. Kelly...
No doubt it does! I just stayed home for one race and had the money for it then. It was a good choice.
The simulation stuff is becoming the norm now days. If you don't have it you'd better get it. For me it's made a world of difference. I don't mind admitting that at one time I thought it was a joke....
Our team has a quote for this.
"Consistency is cool, but if you consistentily suck you still suck"
Quote by Megan Cabot
Let me try a different more simplified approach. If you have something you want changed in the class then write a letter to the CRB. The letter also carries more weight when you actually own a car in...
.
In order to use the word "we" , YOU would first need a car. Contribute to the class by way of participating or stop complaining. For example: Chuck complains ,but he has the right to do so since he...

Thanks for posting! This will certainly help new guys that want a new motor as well as others currently in the class. I didn't expect the price to be that high , but at least there's the option to...
I'm still waiting on anyone to post a link,email or phone number to the contact who still sells brand new 593 motors.......
You should learn from your oversights above. At least show people you're either trying really hard to be factual or just be honest and tell everyone you're not capable of making a factual post. Btw,...
Now this is a great idea!
I stand by my comment. If you write in to the CRB for this I will support it and I'm sure that atleast 90% of the class will as well. I know 7 drivers right off the bat that will write in to support...
It doesn't give it a performance advantage. It only lessens the amount of expertise one would need to optimize it once you've figured out how to operate the power commander and auto tune. If you ask...
Actually, I'm not yelling. Just making sure you see the points. In any case, if you had been asked to change restrictors 5 times in 6 years at $2000.00+ each time I'm pretty sure you too would be a...
Let me start out by saying that if you want to send in a request to the CRB requesting that the two-strokes have cockpit adjustable "jetting" or for that matter fuel injection that can "tune itself"...
