    Old Roaring Forties Windup and Distribution?

    Re: Roaring Forties Windup and Distribution? Same here. Filled out the forms, Faxed and mailed them. Haven't heard a thing. Even 1 cent on the dollar would be nice! Al

    High Performance Starters

    For Infidels with more limited means that are seeking retardation, an ignition cut-out switch could be installed to provide a similar effect. All for the cost of less than a pair of disgusting McDonald's Chicken Flavored Sandwiches from the dollar menu.

    High Performance Starters

    One observation for what it's worth - assuming the following: Walking/Jogging/Pushing speed = 5 MPH Tire Diam = 24" Rear end ratio = 3.5 Second gear ratio = 1.75 Cranking speed when push starting ≈ 425 RPM Regards, Al

    High Performance Starters

    Hi Ron, From a debugging standpoint, after a no start, have you ever tried pushing the car up to speed and: 1. trying to use the starter while it is rolling? 2. trying to use the starter after it stops rolling? This would at least rule out any kind of mechanical issue that happens with...

    Hi Chris, Get an Xbox360 + Forza 2 and you can really get a good idea of what it will look like, especially if you want to deviate from existing schemes: http://www.gt40s.com/forum/all-gt40/22816-my-rcr-road-atlanta.html Regards, Al

    South African Roaring Forties Cars in Australia?

    Hi Chris, I don't believe the accuracy of this information should have any bearing on whether or not I would choose to stop honoring my agreement with the individual who provided me the information to keep their identity private. I will say that it was relayed to me by someone I consider a...

    My RCR at Road Atlanta

    OK, not really - but I have been using the paint shop in Forza II to get an idea of what my car will look like when I finally paint it. I know this is a Mk II, and I have a Mk 1, but there is no Mk 1 in Forza II :-(. On the Xbox display the car is actually white, so I need to work out the...

    Alternator size?

    I agree, I think the only benefit from a larger alt will be quicker reserve capacity recovery after starting. Al

    Elkhart parade....very cool.

    My family and I were very excited to see Dean's RCR in the paddock this morning, and I really look forward to getting our car to the point his is at. Before everyone asks - It started raining before I had a chance to take any photos, and the forecast doesn't look to good for tomorrow. :-(...

    Top 10 Reasons I can't work on my GT40

    The same list (same order too) goes for me except for #1. I think we all have (one or more) personal #1's. Mine is that I am spending way too much time making the body of my 40 as symmetrical as possible. 5/32" gaps all around and uniform wheel opening flange depths and panel edge thickness...
