Hi Chuck,

 

not sure was a shark has to do with billiard.

I'm more about effort.

Minimum effort with maximum result - the same I do for business, making the
dreams of architects becoming true, with a minimum of effort.

Saving resources and money.

 

On racing I try to bring in, what makes the car fast:

*       Good handling
*       Good braking

Engine power is not on my focus. The engine needs to last. I try to keep the
revs at low as I can < 6100 rpm on the TR4.

And I changed the TR8 current engine configuration to work best between
3-6000 rpm.

Both cars are basically the same config.

 

Many people invest much money in their car. I invest money in the driver.
Taking lessons, buying books about driving.

In my opinion this is giving better results than trying to squeeze 10 hp
more out of an engine.

 

The most joy for me is to treat racing like a chess play. You have about
30-40 cars on the track.

Some of them you can use for getting faster others hinder you and then there
is the car in front you want to overtake.

That is the greatest fun of all. Playing games. Presenting yourself in
mirrors, confuse them with false attacks and stuff.

I'm not after winning, I'm going for a good fight and don't care much about
final outcome. The fight is the thing for me.

 

Cheers

Chris

I always enjoy Chris's posts. I know he's fast. If he were a billiards
player would he be considered a shark?

My engine is very basic, easy to service, nothing fancy on it. And for sure
not a top notch racing car but reliable.

I still run the thick belt and pulleys for instance and a standard crank.

 

I'm always a friend of less parts, then less parts can fail.

That's why I remove as many parts from the car as I can and keep the parts
which makes the car easier to run.

 

Cheers

Chris

Betreff: [Fot] Crank Scrapers?

 

Hello Amici,

 

I am curious if anyone has used this product in their engine and what your
experience has been?

 

http://www.crank-scrapers.com/Triumph.html 

 

They apparently make them for all the 4 and 6 cylinder engines.

 

Thanks!
