    What you breath is now dangerous.

    Let me see if if I understand this. The Carbon dioxide we exhale (about 1 kg per day at rest) is now hazardous to our health. I figured it was always hazardous to our health, that's why we exhale it and why we can't put plastic bags over our heads. At rest we only use 10% of our lung capacity...

    Has anyone gone through custom vehicle title in Illinois?

    Have any of you fellow Illinois replica builders/owners gone through the title and registration process? I have found the paper work that needs to be filed but I can't find a checklist on what the safety inspection is looking for. Any help or experiences appreciated. Andy

    Jokes anyone? -

    John was in the fertilized egg business. He had several hundred young layers (hens), called 'pullets,' and ten roosters to fertilize the eggs. He kept records, and any rooster not performing went into the soup pot and was replaced. This took a lot of time, so he bought some tiny bells and...

    The economy solved.

    Are you going to be able to earn/save more than a million today in the rest of your working life? If you work 15 more years for a nut worth $1.5 million, it is the same value as 1 mill today. Also in that scenario you would have to average $100k "extra" income per year to accumulate the $1.5...

    Scary!

    SpyderMike, I would like to challenge the perspective in which you view our situation. A short(in relation to the rest of the civilized world) 230 some years ago our founding fathers started this country from scratch. In that short time the USA became one of the most powerful, innovative and...

    How Hot Is Too Hot?

    Is it possible that you header's were radiating heat to the sensor below? I couldn't tell from your second picture if the headers and collectors were in place. Mechanical temp lines also can be affected by running too close to heat sources. Regarding the 220 temp. That is a great temp. I...

    FIA Announcement; In a suprising show of sportsmanship, "Today, FIA has ruled in favor of allowing all of the Formula 1 teams to start and run in the Japan and China Grand Prixs even though race stewards have in fact, declared Ferrari the winner of both of these up coming events." When asked...

    BLONDE EASTER Three blondes died and found themselves standing before St.Peter. He told them that before they could enter the Kingdom, they had to tell him what Easter represented. The first blonde, an American, said 'Easter is a holiday where they have a big feast and we give thanks and...

    Racing Ford GT-R.....with RCR

    Does anybody have a static picture of it in traffic? At one point around the 6 hour mark of the race there were good shots of it from the front and it's roof line looked to be a good 4" lower than the Ferrari's. The Porsches looked like VW beetles in the same picture. \ The handeling...

    Anybody need a ZF?

    Does the Superformance run the ZF like the Pantera or flipped like the original GT40's with ZF-1's? To run "GT40" style the ring gear has to be flipped and a oil galley drilled if I recall. Buyer beware if this is the case. Once you open her up you will end up doing synchro's etc and...

    Rain track setup

    Howard, I generally agree with your list, however, this is a fantastic opportunity to learn about set-up AND driver input. The nut behind the wheel is usually what could benefit from the most adjusting. If you have the track time I would start with your current dry settings and make one...

    Rain track setup

    I agree with Ron. Disconnect the sway bars. I love racing my Alfa in the rain...it's the only way we can beat the Lotus's and Porsche's. I found that using a gear higher everywhere can help with throttle control. Most important thing is Rainx and anti-fog on the windshields. I have seen...
