Re: 2021 SCCA Super Tour & Majors Results - Homestead Jan 2021
Thanks for the results. I think 4 of the 6 entries were also in the runoffs this year. You are somewhat correct. Unfortunately, Dennis was injured and his car TRASHED (damage at 3 of 4 corners plus an unusable ROLL BAR .. but still pristine bodywork) at the beginning of Q1 on Tuesday, so he was una...

Re: Diesel Pusher Motorhome and trailer for sale - oldies but goodies - UN-SOLD!
OK.. the trailer is actually GONE, but the buyer backed out of the sale on the motorhome, so it's back on the market again. Price remains the same (this is a GOOD motorhome), but I MIGHT entertain offers that are close.
Reach me here on the Interchange or direct.

Re: For Sale 1970 RCA Formula Vee ( unrestored )
Do you have the original log book(s) for the car? Any history of it's last race? Original owner (you?)? Any price in mind?
Looks pretty good for a car that's been in storage for that long. Should make a great Vintage car.

Good idea Alex. The results from Sebring are also available. And I should mention that new 'SPEC TIRE' LAP RECORDS were set during the Sunday races of both Homestead and Sebring. National HQ refuses to recognize FV Spec Tire lap records, but *I* am tracking them as best I can with some help from Gra...

Re: HOOSIER CHANGES FV TIRE CONTINGENCY RULES!!
I'm not certain but there was nothing in the letter that I received from Hoosier that specifically mentioned the Formula Vee class, just contingency tires. Therefore, good chance it applies to all classes.

Jim was Chief Steward for the Runoffs in past years and this year was present as a member of the SOM Appeals board. Jim raced in FV in the 80's and finished...
