Hey guys, Come on down to the Auto Club Speedway (formally the California Speedway) in Fontana, Ca. this coming weekend March 7-9. Lots of great racing. Had a...
San Diego Region Solo 2 event this Sat & Sun. @ Qualcom Stadium. Saturday - practice (I will not be there), Sunday - race (I will be there). If you can make it...
One of my clients has a stripped 850 Spyder body that is free for the taking. Looks like there may be some good body parts and some not so good. Contact Koh...
I tuned the shocks by changing the stock oil to 30wt. This trick stiffens the shock a tremendous amount. The rebound settings in a stock shock are somewhere...

I guess maybe I was the only one at this event. H Production was represented by 3 Fiats, one Sprite and a strange H Modified car that I was told had an 850...
Karl, Thanks for being there. Need you to get a Fiat/Abarth out there with us. You were close with the last name spelling (1 letter wrong). The correct way is...
Mitch: Thanks for the spelling correction. We could have used a list of competitors or a program or something out there in observer land. My guess is that many...
Karl, Thanks for being our eyes @ Fontana this last weekend. Nice to see that we are making friends at these various events and can lend a bit of support to...
John: It was a fun weekend - luckily I don't live too far from the track. I noticed both Hugo and Lou had problems during the race but came back out before it...
Karl, When I talked to Hugo yesterday, he didn't say anything about having any major problems, except for being short on power. Ha... We will be be back @...
JE & Karl, I believe Hugo runs the smaller displ. engine in his 600. If I remember correctly he was going to get the handling dialed in 1st and then increasing...
Yes, regarding Hugo's car, I might have been thinking about the day before but I think during the race he did pass through pit road for some reason. Lou passed...
Mitch, I'm building Hugo a 930 out of a 843 block, long rods & stroke, short deck. This combo works very well and allows more piston dwell @ TDC & BDC. I also...
Karl, Actually the spectators have access to the infield section. At the entrance to the northern paddock area by the water tower the gate is open and you can...
David posted this in the other forum: can you say "electric" fuel pump without cringing? especially in hot weather to avoid vapor lock? can you say "external...
Mainly for the attention of John Edwards: Hello John, I’ve just been having a look at your website with interest. Inspecting the vid. of your Sedan’s...
Dave, I'll check w/one of my friends over in Signal Hill, he used to know of a place in Long Beach that did all sorts of friction stuff. C.H. Toppings, comes...
The carb on the Sedan has been off and on so many times in the last few weeks it's not even funny any more. Ha.... I decided to remove the fuel lines & pump...
JOHN: Happy revs to you. We've all done stuff like that...because you've been doing it longer, you have had the opportunity to do it more often. -- boone ... ...
John..you can only do this all , ONCE ! What rear ratio and tire diameter are you running ??? Dave ... few weeks it's not even funny any more. Ha.... I decided...
Stock Sedan R&P and the tyres are Yokahama 379 all season radials - 165/70-13 and about 22". Running around 38 PSI for Solo work. They certainly aren't the...
Okay, I'll stick my foot in a little bit here... The ST-80 cam was a cam that PBS came up with to deal with the siamese intake that the 600 and 850 cylinder...
tire pressures are somewhat magic On my A-mod car, we would often run 12-14 psi on 12"-14" wide slicks by 13" diameter, pretty much the same for the Bmod and...
... Karl, I think the small Fiat dealership you were talking about on/near Paramount/Rosecrans was called Arrow Motors. They sold Fiats, along with many other...
J.S. Please reply to me concerning the 850 shocks - Thanks Mike ____________________________________________________________________________________ Never miss...
