Sneeking up on a Porsche. Oh yeh

Success . Not perfect but getting it Top of the hill. Slippery exit if you turn in too early.

Sorry guys, I thought I understood how to do this. I will try Marks method 2. If this does not work help me out here.

Well that did not work.Hopefully this works. (image)http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e266/gwozencroft/GT40Infineon2-24-06019bothcarssmall.jpg(image)

Had a great day with Trackmasters at Infineon on Friday.Perfect weather and dicing with Steve Beck in the yellow Tornado. Steves Goodyears are getting thin so he was sliding a lot, but we handled the Porsches fine.

Oliver , Count me in ,thanks. Graham W

Ron, I have done 2 track days on the R65 Dunlops and about 150 road miles . About 50% worn . For the road I normally run 225/50/15 Z rated G Force fronts and 305/50/15 Goodrich TA on the rear.The Dunlops are good for 10 seconds a lap at Thunderhill and are superb track tires but will follow...

Had a great time at the Party. I think your neighbors were beginning to wonder about you when Sheikh Farhad opened the rear end and everyone was blinded by chrome ! Congratulations to Howard on winning the Bud Jones annual award. Bud you are a class act ,super trophy but Howard don't wear those...

Kev, My car just passed 23,000 miles on Renault21T transaxle with AP racing clutch. No problems. I run synthetic oil and change it every 1000 miles. I do not hammer it in 1st since everbody says that 1st is the weak point of the transaxle and with so much torque available I don't think you...

Jamie, Take a breath and think what you want to write about ,I see you have only 5 days left to write your essay and you are in a panic.However if you focus,you can do this well.You obviously love the GT40 like the large audience here of certified GT40 lovers,they are here to help.You have to...

yes, I am going to take my GT40 for the track session with 'hooked on driving' on 28th. Any of the NorCal group going ?

Contact at WC Engineering is John Welch. 708-534-7968 website www.wcengineering.com. Look at service link.

Anyone have any comments on WC Engineering ,Moree, Illinois. On there website they advertise Renault UN1 transaxle work including limited slip diff installation. Seems like a nice guy on the phone and his rates are reasonable. Thanks .Graham Wozencroft

Jim, The renaults have an aluminum tab on the rear lower middle bolt that will say UN1 then the model number (13 on the 21 Turbo ) and the transaxle serial number.Unfortunately this tab is often missing if the transaxle has been worked on.Not sure if the Eagle transaxle has the same tab. I...

Stuart, Many thanks for your offer. I have found replacement CV's here(www.batinc.net) .Merkur Scorpio CV's should be the same and I should get them on Thursday ,although since bought unseen I may still need them. However,since your price is right and I have no intention of ever selling the...

I need Granada outer CV joints for my KVA but I do not have part numbers.Boot number is 95SX 4K258 EA.Can anyone supply info.Granada series ? Also is there a source for UK Ford Granada parts in The USA ? Online parts books ? US Ford parts that would fit ?

I find the rear view mirror better than the side mirrors in the original position (in front of the windscreen not on the door. I am driving a rhd in the US so the passenger side mirror is more use than the drivers side until I am looking at the guy I just passed. The view of the webers in the...

Howard, Congrats, are you taking your new baby to Monterey ? Does the NorCal crew have any plans for the weekend. I am going to drive my 40 down Saturday am early ,straight pipes and all. Graham

Thanks Howard, I drained the transaxle and put in Mobil 1 75-90 full synthetic . I do not have an lsd but the price was right at PepBoys so I used the full synthetic. I do not have much experience with synthetics so I am assuming that a full synthetic is as good as a partial one in this...
