I have read this post with great interest. GT40 or not, when a guy is going out on the track, or just setting in the pits, you should think about the fact that a human life is at stake. I ALWAYS SPEAK UP!!! If the guy gets mad or tells me where to go, that if his problem. MY mind will still be...

I am totally amazed at your talent. You have really raised the bar for others to meet. I only hope that I ever get to be as good at this stuff as you already are. You go, dude!!!!!!!!!!

You might want to also check the bottom of the carbs...I do it with a steel ruler (machine shop type). I've seen both, and so the above post is also correct. I hope it helps!

I'm sorry for the confussion, the crankshaft WAS supported.....I know that I certainly would not try that on an unsupported crankshaft. The balance was continually tested before the high speed turns were done. To answer the above post, it meant that the crank was balanced down the axis of the...

I will find out the name of the machine, I used a professional racing balancing company. The statement quoted came from a man who first did my balancing up until he died. But that said, some of the engines that I felt I was lucky enough to be a part of, left the starting line of the track at...

IMHO, mass is what makes the torque value of the motor. But the flywheell can be lightened at the outer edge only, and a heavier pulley put on the front of the crank, to make the total package weigh the same. It improved the acceleration rate. In all of the engines I've worked on, and I can't...

Done, and good luck!

The picture you made the link to is a Bradley GT2. Has not been made in years! I hope this helps!

Sorry about that, I've lost several oportunities myself. I remember seeing one in Telephone texas, but I don't kow if it is still around. I'll see if I can find out.

There is a Valkrie for sale on ebay right now, they are calling it a gt40 replica, but trust me, it is a valkrie. Look under KIT CAR BODIES!

I think that it shows a total commitment on behalf of the police department to make sure that all of the details of the accident could be so well documented, and I think that Mr curb crawler will learn a valuable lesson...weigh the item you're going to steal, because you might not be able to...

There is a type of snake that "jumps" from tree to tree...so I would go with the elephant! But this is a really funny set of facts!

I would like to point out that the silver car is not an Avenger, but rather a Valkrie. It is a beautiful , as are the cars that on shown on this forum. I always believe that it is the get together and sharing of information, that makes groups like this a scene that I like to go to. It doesn't...

Hey, the asshole is dead...done the right way, no trial, no bullshit, just done. Now, if we go after the others, and not do what we did in the first irac war by stopping when we had it done, this will put an end to the assholes who think that we want to talk them to death! I think ( in MHO) our...

I just want to know why you would a bag to go golfing with you...I'd go with one that looked like something! HA!
