Good one! I cerftainly understand what Burt says about "buy a formula ford and order up some humble pie". the difference between first and fifth in any formula race generally can't be made up just wi

If the suspension woes of TRs only came down to sway bars it would be a great thing. Depending on what anyone has done to the front end, a sway bar in the back could be good or bad. With the typical

I was just looking at the time sheets and calculating average speeds for Road Atlanta--looks way too fast. Could someone confirm for me that the track is 2.540 miles long? If so that makes a 1:46 lap

Hmm. This seems so simple. Something must have addled my math wits. Seems like 2.54 miles/1.46 minutes = X miles/60 minutes or 2.540/1.46=X/60 or (2.540*60)/1.46 = 104.38 Must be losing my marbles. O

What a moron. Of course. Bill, I think your problem is that 1:46 is not the same as 1.46. The :46 indicates 46 seconds, so the lap time in minutes is 1 + 46/60 or ~1.767 minutes. 2.54 miles in 1.767

My best was 1:46 something, but that was probably a fluke. Mostly I did 1:48 something. The best I saw for the Kastner/Brophy Vitesse with Mark Thomas driving was 1:45 something, and it was the faste

Yeah, but I missed it. I saw the winner though--very cool. The sprung rear suspension used rods as arms. I guess it weighed 30 or so pounds. Very slick. The high weight (and inertia) pops a math ques
