Karl, How is it being shipped? FedEX ;-)

Dave, I went through that several years ago and the broke the same shoulder three years ago at the track no less and had another surgery. It seemed to hurt even more every time I walked past my car sitting in the garage. Have a great surgery and a speedy recovery. The harder you work on your PT the faster and better the healing process.

Fathers day should be for the "FATHER". They should support you. You have been supporting them their entire life. :-) Bring the family to Summit Point. Sorry you can't make it.

Ron, Not to worry. you will be fine. Scott Lentz signed up today. He said Gp 3 had 17 cars so gar. The cut off is 35 per group. It looks like we will have 8 or 9 Sevens (owners) in our group.

HPDE 3 it is a fun group as long as you get out in front.

Redgoose, Have you registered? Did you get a room at the Hampton Inn yet? Ask for the Summit Point event rate. Gates open at 5 but we get there about 4 on Friday.

:party: We gona hab a fun time at Hyperfest. redgoose has announced that he is coming to Summit in June. That makes NINE.:driving:

That's a lot of parts. A new chassis and part out the rest may make sense. Is insurance kicking in?

Jeff if I didn't already have an Aluma trailer I would buy it in a heart beat. Nice trailer. Are you driving your Seven or BMW at Hyperfest?

Folis is now 76. I usually only get to see his car from the rear when we are on track. His Zetec was developed and tuned by Abacus Racing in Suffolk VA. ECU developed for him by MegaSquirt and it puts out about 245 - 255 HP, Quaife Sequential trans. It is really a beautiful, well cared for car with lots of TLC and ingenuity from Folis.

Karl would you like some good videos if various rides at Summit Point to review. I am confident you will have the car fixed in time. For those that can not make June, NASA runs Summit August 18,19 and Nov 3,4.

Ouch! Glad you are OK. Mike M just sent me the notice. Cold tires are just no fun. If the frame is straight, call Caterham UK and have them FedEx the parts. I doesn't cost much more and you have them in two days. Good to hear you hope to make Summit Point.

I am registered for Hyperfest at Summit Point June 16,17. Register here: http://www.nasaracing.net/?page_id=1342 What are you waiting for Folis,Tom, Dermot, George, Jeff, Scott and you to Karl? Happy Easter!

I get into mine the same way I did with thr top on. Only it is easier with the cage.

Can you use a cell phone in the HOV lane?

SCCA GCR 18.3.3. Side Protection - Open and Closed Automobiles A. The minimum side protection shall consist of a side tube connecting the front and rear hoops across both the door openings. Additionally, there shall also be either a diagonal tube from the front hoop to the rear hoop bisecting the door opening below the horizontal side tube, or not less than two (2) horizontal side tubes. Additional tubing may be added. NASCAR-style door bars are recommended. B. In automobiles with full roll cage installations including side bars, interior door panels may be altered, replaced, or removed. When door panels are removed, all sharp edges or projections shall be protected. Full SCCA Roll Bar Section here: http://sports.racer.net/docs/rules/2002/sect_18_roll_cage_and_chassis_2002_gcr.pdf

Karl, Not sure of the requirements as Piper Motorsports made it to conform to NASA and SCCA.

Croc, I am not doing this. I just wanted to learn if anyone has done it. Are you coming to Hyperfest now? We would love to see you there.

Don't bother getting the silver coat from JetHot if you have anything more than the stock Zetec. The silver will burn off in no time. They will redo it for you if you pay them to remove the now dull silver coat and pay them to redo it with their higher temp rated black coating. I know from experience.

Has anyone put a Turbo on a Zetec Seven? What brand Seven? What frame mods required? What type Turbo? Photos?

KLasik, My frame is a 2000 it is likely yours is the same. The front post is bolted to a removable cross bar mounted under the frame. The front of the arm guard rail is bolted to another removable cross bar mounted under the frame. The rear post is bolted through the side of the lower frame rail. All holes in the frame rails are filled and welded so there is no strenth lost. The rear roll hoop and supports are bolted into the existing mounts. It is really a piece of art. Not cheap at $5K. But then it is not your average cage. To my knowledge, the Caterham cages while costing less, are not approved by SCCA or NASA. This style cage has been tested in a 130mph multi rollover. Driver was fine, Th car wrecked yet the cage survived and placed on the replacement car.
