Tim, Welcome to the forum I look forward to meeting you and the rest of the Land speed racing community. This event sure sounds like fun for those with the correct safety equipment otherwise you are limited to 135 MPH. Regards Mark

Bill, Welcome to the forum. Seeing you live in PA go to Carlisle for the kit car nationals and then the Ford nationals and check out the kits as there are always many different vendors on hand. Regards Mark

Michael, The 930 is not a G-50 as that is a 5 spd. If you are not going for an original looking tranaxle the Ricardo is a six speed and should bolt up to a small block ford. These are on Ebay for $7500. Good luck with your build and part selection. Regards Mark

Craig, Welcome to the forum and the RCR family Have fun with your build. Mark

Happy BELATED birthday Fran I hope you had a great day Mark

Congratulations on the new SLC project. I too thought about the FFR GTM but there is something special about a monocue chasis.:thumbsup: Fran and his team produce a top notch product for those with the desire. Mark

Fran, What size tires are under that fine RCR T70? As that will be similar to what I would like to fit under mine. Regards Mark

Re: New venue for all out speed? Joe, I have a bunch of friends who have gone to LSR events and really enjoy it. The initial cost to set up the car for safety is a little high if you can do the work yourself or extremly high if you have to pay somebody else to do the work. I will be going up to...

Re: Gt40p, you choose the price!! Very creative and to the point sales method for a beautiful ride by a creative individual.

Jay, Welcome to the RCR family. Have fun with your build. Mark

Randy, I thought someone would have purchased these by now. If your other interested parties do not want your Weber set up I am interested. Please send me a PM. Regards Mark

Fran, That is a beautiful RCR T70 at a reasonable price. Makes me wish I had the time to work on mine. Mark

My condolences to all as having a loved one pass is inevitable. I only met Joe once as I was across the pond at a funeral and had the opportunity to view his RCRT70 and his Costin in his new shop. He was a person who enjoyed and worked towards his dreams. Respectfully Mark

Alex, There is something like your set up used in the towing industry called a micro lock this can be a single brake line (1 axle) or dual line (2 axle) lock up. Mine was from A and W Direct from Connecticut. These worked great when I had my tow truck for holding it still while loading but I...

Alex, Just remember that is not a legal emergency brake and when your brakes cool down and the rotors shrink your valuable car could roll. Also, this has been discussed before and many members have given the pros and cons. Mark

The cap looks like a Girling. Good luck with your search and keep us posted as that looks like a very period correct component. Mark

Ron, It looks like you will be relocating the 2 axles forward to lesson the weight on the hitch. Just be careful that you do not move them forwards too far as that will make the trailer sway. Mark

Ron, Could you possibly make a storage box under the back of the trailer for heavy items that you are currently storing in the white box. My kids do that with all of their trailers that they haul. I use your system as I have a very heavy speck tow unit and have been known to have over 2000 lbs...

Fran. Sorry to hear of your loss. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. Mark

Ron, As phil stated do not start the motor. Warm the car in your garage until the complete cooling system is thawed out. Do a visual check on the radiator by looking thru the fins to see if any tubes have expanded. If they have it will impact the cooling capabilitys. After the motor is thawed...
