  1. Quote from sign up page: On most track days the fuel stations are open from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. The fuel station at Thunderbolt Raceway offers octanes of 93, 95 & 100 (unleaded) and 110 & 112 (leaded), while the station at Lightning Raceway offers 93 & 100 (unleaded) and 110 (leaded). The fuel stations are permitted to fill containers in proper five gallon red fuel cans only, per New Jersey state law. Larger fuel containers of 10 gallons or more (any color) are permitted to be used as long as as they are marked appropriately (stickers or writing on container that reads “FUEL”). No idea on ethanol - I would reach out to them directly to confirm.
  2. I know - shockingly bad. There are a litany of BMW/Titan diffs (BMW housing and Titan bespoke internals) failing at the 10K mile mark or even earlier. Its definitely not a driver issue. I just fixed a 2021 car with less than 7K miles on it - friction plates failed.
  3. That orange Caterham was Al Navarro's - somewhere on this forum there is an account of him driving in to Manhattan. Then it became Mopho's in CA. Then it recently became someone else's. @JohnCh help me please - who bought it?
  4. I am in negotiations to have a Caterham dealer present at this event. He is thinking of trailering a 2023 Caterham 420R SV demonstrator to the event for those who are in their "shopping phase" for a Caterham or a se7en generally. Please let me know if you have any interest and I will ensure you get an introduction.
  5. Easy. PBT-GF30 and PA6-GF10/GB20 are the Delphi part numbers, two components that slide together. The actual part comes off a Rover 400 piece of turd or a Rover 200 POS and a MGTF or even a 1997 Mini and you can buy it off Rimmer Bros https://rimmerbros.com/Item--i-YWB100970 or Motaclan https://motaclan.com/product/relay-assy-eng-manag_ywb100970_11571_1/ or Minispares https://www.minispares.com/ywb100970-engine-management-relay-mpi-except-air-con and some tech info I found on my way... https://andrewrevill.co.uk/EU3MultiFunction.htm
  6. Its a Ford part but was also sold to other car manufacturers - no idea of model number sorry. Can you please post a photo of the label on the side with code numbers and I can search one of the databases I have.
  7. Definitely - I was just having a senior moment when I was pinging for interest.
  8. Retromobile is an event I have caught infrequently in Germany when my work travel is able to coordinate. Truly an amazing event with classic cars of all types. For the first time they are coming to New York - Javitts Center on November 19-22. https://www.retromobile.us/ Anyone local want to join me dream "shopping"? @yellowss7 @S1Steve @CBuff @NSXguy @slowdude @11Budlite @simon450

  10. I know, I had the same reaction. However, on those frosty morning drives my tush will be just tushy!
  11. As a general rule, slick tires have no date codes. However, most Hoosiers are DOT tires so have a date code. The Avon slicks I have on the BMW have no date code. The Goodyear Blue Streak vintage race tires on the Mustang have a date code. If no date code then NJMP give a pass and let you run.
  12. Not much more to do. It just has to be sorted so it is reliable. I think I am close on that. A dyno session to get to a better tune with more hp is an option but not really needed. It drives nicely on the current tune - suitable for road or track. I do need to get a paint guy to touch up the front top bar of the roll cage as the windscreen has taken the orange paint back to bare metal - you always need to put helicopter blade tape there to prevent that. Cars like this need fettling to be reliable and turn key. Once you get there then not a lot is needed top keep them there.
  13. Welcome to Noo Joisey....
  14. Its a fair question. The usual online purchases don't offer any guarantees on dates. The only way I have discovered is to have a relationship with a vendor like Roger Krause, or now his son, where you explain the problem and ask them to check the date code in order to max the usage life under the NJMP rules. The downside of this....you cannot get the tire as cheap but I view that as a good price in order to support a tire vendor who knows their product inside out.
  15. Should do since it is a standard condition of Academy series that you run a full FIA cage with windscreen and side doors - your dealer should be able to get Caterham to confirm this.
