It's nice to know there are other people out there in the same boat that my
partner and I are in. It sounds like Tom is in a bigger hurry than we are,
but he's asking a lot of the same questions. I'm sure you guys understand
or remember how it feels to not know some of the basic information that
others take for granted. I'd be one more person who would be interested in
feedback of answers/opinions/past experiences that would help us find our
way through the woods...

Subject: FoT Midwest Spitfire Guy Needs Help-Now!
FoT-Help!
New FoT is preparing a nice autocross car for Vintage Racing and he is
working hard to make a driver's school in April....
(SNIP)
here are some of my questions.
i think finding tires for my spitfire needs to happen soon.
i want to use the most rubber on the ground that i can get by with.
new or good used would work to get started. what size and where do i go to
find them?
i also would like to know what headers are available for the spitfire,
mine is a home-built and has some fit problems.
what is a good source for spitfire tuning and race prep information?
how do you identify the best engine to prep for racing?
lots of changes to the car already, i'm anxious to drive the thing soon!
any help will be welcomed.
tom
