East Tennessee Region SCCA

We used to run at the big lot between the two. The neighbors called the school and ran us off.

Hmm, some interesting ideas on there but I don't think some of them are quite legal for stock or SP. The torque spec on the VW was something like 40 ft-lbs which is NOT enough. The problem with the early VW's is they use an eccentric which means they grind 1/3 of the threads off the bolt so the ecce...

Sometimes there are a few that go. I'm probably out for the after-race festivities. I think I will be mowing grass.

Do we have a new Tiger in the group?

Ted Russell Ford on Parkside Drive in west Knoxville is motorsports friendly. They guy putting on the event on Sunday is the Service Manager there. I hear he knows something about Mustangs.

Matlock gets the thumbs up from me, too.

I think I saw one near the back on at the Volvo dealer lot on Parkside when I passed by there today on the interstate. You might go by and take a look.

Boy after reading some of those, me thinks you'd have to be smoking crack to buy one. Come to think of it, the one that runs nationally in CSP has had some engine issues, too. These include a broken cam. How do you break a cam?!

Pros... Toyota reliability ha! :roll: I've owned my share of Toyotas. I now drive VWs. Does that tell you what I think of Toyota reliability? Actually, I don't really think they are any better or worse than anything else out there. They all have their issues. Toyotas are just really expensive to fi...

I saw the car tonight. The graphics look good but I think those cone marks are permanent. They are HUGE!
