    Interest in Ford Racing Splitter?

    I might be interested, depending on price. I had a fellow region member make one for me two years ago using a CAD file I made for it. The price was very reasonable since he wasn't making a profit. I need a spare since I've already cracked the new one at one of the splitter rod mounts.

    SN95 Wiring Switch Panel

    Thanks for all the replies. I got pulled off on something else and am only now able to start thinking about this again. Good thing the season starts next weekend.

    SN95 Wiring Switch Panel

    This is what I was able to find. One is from a Haynes manual the other from Chiltons. The chart was from an online post.

    SN95 Wiring Switch Panel

    Some people can read a wiring diagram and figure out how to adapt it to aftermarket controls. I am not that person so I am hoping someone has an easy(ish) solution to my dilemma. I recently bought a Longacre switch panel with a master on/off, momentary push button start, and 4 accessory...

    Rear Mount Radiator

    I'm thinking about a rear mounted radiator on my '97 Cobra CP autocross car. The main reason would be weight distribution (F/R still sucks after taking out almost everything not essential to make the car run and drive). Has anyone tried this? If so, was it worth it? What are the obstacles...

    2023 St. Louis SCCA Tire Rack CAM/XS Challenge

    I think the name keeps a lot of the non-CAM/XS people away. Most people (myself included until recently) are not aware that these events are open to non-CAM classes. Perhaps it needs to be marketed differently from the national office or the name modified to clarify the scope of the event.

    2018 Coyote Truck Motor at 7500 RPM or More

    So, this is the solution I have come up with. I was talking with Frank at Power by the Hour in West Palm Beach, FL and will be getting their engine control harness for the F-150 motor along with an upgraded fuel hat with larger fuel lines (for return system), a calibrated MAF, and an oil filter...

    2018 Coyote Truck Motor at 7500 RPM or More

    Thanks for the info. Looks like I need to get the engine out before I make any plans.

    2018 Coyote Truck Motor at 7500 RPM or More

    Failure was as follows. I was at RPM (Raceway Park of the Midlands, Pacific Junction, IA) on October 15. Weather was in the 50's on my 4th session of the day, maybe halfway through. I was coming into turn 7 at around 100 mph (4th gear, 3.73 rear end) when I heard a pop and a lessening of...

    2018 Coyote Truck Motor at 7500 RPM or More

    So, my 2011 Mustang GT (Stock motor except Boss 302 intake and tune) tried to send a rod through the oil pan back in October. I have not touched anything yet but expect to find some carnage when it happens. I got a line on a truck motor from a 2018 F-150 with 100,000 miles on it and a cam...

    the Pin 5 ABS connector mod to fully turn off S197 traction control works

    Is this a way to get around using the Boss 302 ABS module?

    Coil-over shocks for time trials

    I am thinking of switching to coil-overs on my 2011 time trials and track day car. It currently has single adjustable KONI sports with Maximum Motorsports road & track springs. The car will need to weigh 3750 lbs. (with driver) to stay in my current class. I am looking at the Cortex...

    Lap Time Thread

    Just got back from BIR (Brainerd) doing Time Trials with SCCA Land-o-Lakes Region. First time there and managed a 1:42.57 on Sunday morning. Same car setup as OIR except tire pressures were 5-6 psi less.

    Thank you. There are several blind turns and the video does not properly convey the elevation change. It is a fun track.

    And now video.I cut the session short because of a mistake coming into turn 3 and the tires were going off.
