I don't like having the fuel line in the (not a nice word)(not a nice word)(not a nice word)(not a nice word)pit either. We just have a blanked off fitting on the fuel log and carry a fuel guage in...

I would start by weighing both engines to see what the actual difference in weight is. If for example the steel block engine has been through a thorough lightening process including the block, main...

I have had a World block lightened by LSM in Michigan. They did a very good job. They are busy though, figure on six weeks. I went with the SHP Pro block on my last motor which is much lighter than...

What are the most common impact guns used by the pro touring teams in Lucas and World of Outlaws etc? I have three Longacre 24v back here in NZ and they have all failed , the third one in less than a...

I will post some pics of the car. No the transmission is not mid mounted. Most cars here do that because we have to run a steel block with the #1 plug in line with the centre of the balljoints. We...

The class Jason is racing in is called Super Saloons here in NZ. The car is the same one one Bobby Pierce drove last year. The rules are quite restictive in some areas and wide open in others....

Interesting thread. Here in New Zealand we have had door and head plates on our saloons and super saloons since before I started on dirt and that was 1983. If you have ever been drilled in the door...

Hi Guys and Girls,As a Kiwi who actually participated in Saturday's feature which Bobby won, I ran 9th, I feel I can put a sane perspective on this thread. Firstly it was a great idea to get a driver...

I race next Saturday, it's summer over here, so I'll be able to try these suggestions. I do trail brake but have had to train myself to do it. I find I can enter the corners faster than my...
