- I just fitted my Mini with Hoosiers and I am extremely happy with them. They are much more forgiving than radials. Radials tend to hold to the limit and then let go suddenly while bias tires break lo

- For what it's worth, my '64 Mini has a 5 lb system with one nozzle to the carb and one to the driver. What is optimum ... a lot of opinions, but I don't know. I trust the fuel cell (and a 5 lb system

- I can't imagine it would be a problem. The last time I checked, the car had to be manufactured prior to 1973. HSR will give you another year, but FL Region SCCA follows the pre-'73 formula. The nice

- Nice to be clean and all ... but some of us would like to add a degree of reliability that isn't there otherwise. Vintage is becoming prohibitive due to the need for "period" parts. That's all fine a

- Good points! Don't get me wrong ... I like vintage and I have no desire to go the GT-5 route. And, I too, will be building my own engines. Thanks for the comments ... you are right. --Original Messag
