Don't the switches themselves come with a wiring diagram? Might the SCCA GCR also have one? I think the way these things work is by going open-circuit on the field windings. The mounting posts on the

At Thunderhill during most of the racing season, a COLD shower is more appropriate. ;=) This is good news. Now if we can just get them to put in an air-conditioned Drivers Lounge and more paving in t

See below. You should have started the question by mentioning the cutoff switch. If it's only got one wire, and that's not hooked up, there is no damage, because the field was never energized. A one-

In a typical generator circuit, the field terminal is grounded inside the regulator. When the generator is producing the maximum voltage allowed in the system (usually 14.2 volts), then the regulator

You might call 1-800-HOT-SHOE to see if they can do something for you. They make lace-up shoes, but they're a smaller outfit and might be able to do a custom job. Can't hurt to call.
