We do track cars by looking at stock specs and then adjust from there to an adequate track set up. Or in the case of the Formula Ford it is all done from scratch. So after stock specs the rest is just experience and believe me Dave and Pat have set up their fare share of AutoX and road racing cars. But yes from a setting alignment to "stock" settings the machine does 85% of the work.
We check that EVERYTHING is within specs. Somtimes the owners bring in their own settings (track cars) and we oblige them and somtimes make suggestions to their settings.
Lol thats kinda how we did Janzen's exhaust on the celica. He showed up with a glass pack and a down pipe off of some random car. After cutting the exhaust just past the cat put the glass pack on and the downpipe pointed right out the side. Just needed a little trimming.
I wouldn't have even let her pull out into the street to begin with. WOW That is what you get with a really rich couple who have uber monay and no experience with a car that powerful.
1991 FC for $1100 it was really nice and i passed for a lack of funds as usual. I get to gung ho about cars for sale somtimes. Hence why i have four and only need one.
You should ask the guy with the primer protege to play the musix. Hood scoop and all lol.
I will be attending, someone has to represent the front engine delete cars....maybe Janszen will come too.
Window tint seems to be a popular " oh btw, we're going to adress this while we are standing here" offense. Along with lights out, lights the wrong colors i.e. blue turn signals, exhaust too loud, etc...
That makes sense because John told me it would be way over my head. That is really interesting tho. Did BMW import Alpina's back then? I know they are now going to next year i guess. Maybe you will be able to work on it because of the Alpina that is coming to the U.S.?
I just did a coolant flush on it today. After the flush we opened the bleeder screw near the thermostat and more brown coolant came out. This is after flushing the system like 10 times. We work at a shop and have the vacuum coolant flush machine. We will try and do a compression test tomorrow. (Monday)
And yes it needs a H20 pump
Have any idea where? John has been there ever since i can remember (I'm only 18). Weird little shop the way it's set up, because it is tucked so far back. What is up with that first blue BMW just as you walk out if the office if i may ask? I have had my eye on that car for a loooooong time.
That is absolutly ridiculous, I appreciate law enforcement and all, but they cannot seem to put themselves in your place when it comes to sentencing. I wish you the best of luck with the situation.
