  1. There is a technique to this, I don't want to see someone attacking a cylinder head with a bastard file, checkout
  2. I also use RaceChrono, with a Bluetooth ODB2 and a Bluetooth Garmin GLO external GPS receiver. The GLO made a huge difference, before the mapping looked like it was drawn by a 5 year old with a crayon, with the GLO you can see you actual parking spot in the paddock. I do not chase lap times, I have found that to be counter productive. I fire it up then switch the screen off. I email the logs to my tablet so they are easier to review later in the hotel. Graham
  3. You cannot just swap to wide-angle sensors. Regular sensors are like a switch, they only work over a narrow band, rich or lean are the only choices. Wide band work as the name suggests over a wide range of values. Your ecu will not know what to do with the increased range of values the sensor will provide. Graham
  4. Bartman, we're are you in MD, I am in Laurel, 29 and John Hopkins. Graham
  5. In case anyone else is interested https://www.motorsportreg.com/events/1010ths-hpde-october-2021-ncm-motorsport-park-motorsports-408608 Graham
  6. searya, what organization are you using for the NCM event? I am looking for a final event of the year. Graham
  7. Nice area, You have Gingerman a great track at South Haven real close by. One of my favorite tracks. Grattin and Putnam Park and not that far away either. Graham
  8. I attended a tire 101 given by Jonny Miller the ex-TransAm racer, he now runs a track tires service. He said the cook them in an oven is useless, that is not a heat cycle. A heat cycle is when you move and manipulate the rubber and carcass to generate internal heat. Sighted a Kitcat in the wild, driving a Miata at Summit point. Graham
  9. Not normally the fuel pressure regulator will control the pressure the injectors are actually seeing. Graham
  10. You can see the same damage in this picture from a different angle, I think.
  11. The third picture 2 posts ago looks like something inbedded in you profile. It looks like a piece of metal. Graham
  12. Bart. Mt Airy is the powder coating shop. If you need any help assembling your puzzle let me know. Graham
  13. My cage is removable, it's a but of a struggle but I can do it on my own. I use some ratchet straps from the roof beams in the garage to lift and lower the cage. Lift the cage and push the car out from under it.
  14. Dan is a great guy to deal with, he will build exactly what you want. A couple of tips, have the correct seat installed and don't forget you helmet so you can select the Hight, position and the rake of the top bars. Also make Dan's life easier and save you a little money strip everything out of the car that will get in Dan's way. Passenger seat, trim, any gas tank covers, you say your swapping to aeroscreen, but I would have the cage built with the windscreen in place in case you change your mind. I also know a great (the best I have ever used) in the area, Wally's Iron Works in Mt Airy. Graham
  15. I think your betting sticking to one dyno rather than shopping for the best numbers. Or you could spend you money on this, looks pretty cool

  17. Sounds like a plan, you don't need a hose clamp on the overflow tube as long as it's a snug fit, there is no pressure on that hose. Graham
  18. Bummer it would have been a perfect end of season event. I am already booked up for August, maybe next year, it a track I want to visit. Graham
  19. I run a non pressurized expansion tank on my Honda power Locost without any problem. I would recommend an expansion tank that has a port at the bottom to make sure anything pushed out to the expansion tank is sucked back as the engine cools. Graham
  20. Any news on this event? Looking to schedule a last couple of events. Graham
  21. That's it Racelabz.com. He will build you anything you want, amazing building skills. Graham
  22. We have a great fairly local cage builder that I used for my cage, he is on the site Dan Lipperini in Exeter PA. I will try and find his web site, it alluding me at the moment. Graham
  23. Tough to tell the color from you pictures but all pistons will have some carbon coating, a clean Aluminum piston crown is a sign of a coolant leak.
  24. Strange statement, hp and torque always cross at 5252 rpm. If not you have a bugus dyno run. Graham
  25. Sorry is this has been posted before, a search could not find anything, cut and paste from the Locost list. https://heeltread.com/collections/british-charm/products/seven-socks Graham * Socks sold fully assembled, not available as a kit.
