almost all times when there is a spin to the inside wall the driver failed to "in a spin, two feet in". No, you can't save it. lock up the brakes and keep your spin on track. Attempt to lock em up even works with ABS if you are already sideways. Amen to that! Watch any of those Nurburgrin...

Cleaning stuff out I won't use. This simpson 4 point is dated 11/93, so it ain't new. I used it in a number of cars over the years and just don't see any need for it in the future. $25. I live in Hopkinton, MA and work in Westborough, MA. http://i143.photobucket.com/albums/r127/Jackffr1846/IMG_01281...

Make an appointment to go through the paperwork with the inspector ahead of time and ask questions. I had to do this 15 years ago to get a factory five cobra inspected and my inspection was nothing compared to salvage inspections. I was under the impression that repairers had to have some kind of li...

You can also consider a "cargo" trailer. My old Cargopro 18' enclosed 2100 pound enclosed was a "cargo" rather than a car hauler. The difference....I actually forget...look it up. I think the floor was maybe different and capacity of the cargo was maybe 6500 where the car was 750...

I should come look at this. Looks like you're in my area (Hopkinton, MA).

I'm looking for a car for next season.

So will we call events there "Palmer" and "Remlap"?

I have not done anything with the toe links besides check to torque on the bolts everytime I change oil. I'm replacing the radiator with a Pro Alloy from sector 111 right now and trying to figure out what to do about the oil cooler. Probably will do a BOE rear cooler as I believe the pressure drop i...

Thanks guys. Not overly worried about being competitive at this point. Just don't want to show up at the track and get sidelined because I wasn't prepared.

If I run an Elise with a BWR hard top, are arm restraints required?

BMW autocrosses allow any licensed driver to drive!

(my son has a permit and would love a ride along too)

Try over on Club Cobra. He'll get lots of interest, I think at that price.

I give mine to snowmobiler friends. Before the helmet, they rode around with a hat and goggles.

I'd also add looking into Carbotech. Call them directly and tell them what your car is. They'll still ask the weight. They're expensive, but they work. Frank Perron runs his LGT with Waaaay too much power and still has stock brakes and Carbotechs. Oh....if you do Hawk Blues, you'll need a separate s...

Do a Honda. Find one that's rust free with no mods and upgrade as you go along. Get on Hondasofnewengland.com and pick up a car or parts from guys who have no money. For what it costs to put a rollbar in a Miata, you'll have a race ready early 90's Civic or CRX. When it breaks, upgrade to Integra st...
