Wow, I think we should take a deep breath and understand one thing. We ALL have a lot more in common than we do differences. This country was a compromise from the beginning. I think we can all agree the politicians don't listen to the voter. How do we get that right back?

The numbers of entrants and spectators have been down this year. It seems if you have a GT 40 show you would make sure you had a bunch of them show up. There are a lot of people showing up to see them.

gear box is in one piece and I finally have the engine back. I am planning to get the whole thing together by friday and ready to race. I have heard the number of GT40s attending the KIC is dissappointing.

Bill Peter J what? I will be racing my MK4 and all are welcome to stop by. Thanks Jack. BTW, you need to stop by and meet my groupie from Arkansas. He complains constantly that everyone in Arkansas is a Nascar fan and have no idea that you can turn right too.

Seems quite high although I hope he gets it. I might have to adjust my price.

I believe Safir has an uphill battle regarding the shape issue. There has been a lot of water under the dam since 66 and the previous owners of the name never thought enough of the mark to control the design. In that time it has become ubiquitous in the automotive world. Had the design been...

harumph, harumph, mumble, mumble.

RA should be a good show although the last time I did a GT40 event was at the Glen and 3 cars showed up. I blew up the gearbox at last year Can Am so I hope I get it back by then.

I am selling my 2006 Mitsu EVO RS setup for SCCA T2 class. It is the current track record holder at Road America and the SCCA Runoffs are at Road America this fall. Specs include: King Motorsports cage Anze/Penske 3way shocks Penske cans Cusco front and center diffs Shepard trans and...

Sure it will fit. You may have to mess with it a bit. It's a big motor but they did put in in a MK4 chassis. Height may be a problem getting it under the rear body work but you asked if it would fit in the chassis.

Not sure what you mean by multiple bodies. There are no mutiples of the MK4. It is a built up car. The suspension , wheels, etc are original stuff. We had the original blue prints from HM, Ford, Brunswick Kar Kraft etc. The honeycomb was made by Hexcel and the other sheet metal we had hammered...

9 and 10 were Can Am cars built by the Agapiou brothers.

gregg, what's up?

Break in oil is for breaking in the cam and setting rings etc. The process case hardens the surface of a flat tappet cam and creates a durable surface. Basically you hammer the cam for 15 or 20 minutes at 2000RPMs. This is where the ZDDP is so important. Another good reason to dyno the engine...

I think anyone running a flat tappet cam or breaking in a new motor should read this article. Break in is crucial. Oils: What motor oil should I use? Which oil is best for my Porsche or aircooled engine? We had Charles Navarro as a speaker a month ago and his knowledge was outstanding. He...

Hi Pat. Sorry to see Johan has gone off. You comming this way anytime soon? The Evo is right up there. I put it on the pole 3 times and 2nd all three times. Car problem 2 times and driver error once. Looks like a bridesmaid year. Had the pole for the Sprints and ended up 3rd comming out of...

Hi All, I haven't been on for a while, club racing a Mitsu EVO and a broken MK4. Well the MK4 is back together and we are running the KIC. If anyone is going, I will be in with the Can Am cars. Stop by and say hello. Johan, I suspect I will see you there with your Lola. Bill

best kit is a finished kit. Point is, make sure you know everything about it, what is NOT included is more important than what is included. And, make sure you are capable of finishing it.

I finally figured out what this thread is all about. "I say the egg". No wait, "the chicken". HMMMM?

I think John Allen has a very good point. There probably won't be much conversation or interest about cars without history just because there isn't anything to talk. Unless a change of ownership is of interest to you. The fact is these cars and their history are well documented and pretty much...
