Hey Cal, just want to say thanks for all of the time you've spent on this for "US". It's pretty much a thankless job. It's always hard to get more than two people to agree on anything which always puts you in a position to be critisized. You just can't please everyone. Now we have a concrete...

QUOTE The 275-60-15 tires have always been legal for EVERYONE in TSO to run. They would be REQUIRED for those wanting to run the newly allowed larger turbos. So, to clarify, if I run the GT55, to be legal in TSO, I would need to run on 275-60-15's ? Yes?/No? 2500 miles is a long haul...

Cal, couple of things, First I'm not familiar with all of the turbo measurements. Do the numbers that are stated for the Turbos include the GT 55 ? secondly, what's the definition of a stock appearing dash. Gene Fluery has a "stock appearing" fibreglass dash. Would a fibreglass dash meet...

No need for you. Turn the boost up on your 109:rolleyes: Go play in the traffic.

I'm building one as we speak. Bobby at RPE is building the motor:biggrin: Car is being put on a diet while it's being built:cool: George

You'll have to be quicker than that to be competative in our class.:biggrin: Try the TSM thread, you might fit there. :rolleyes: Have you ever run your car at the track ???. What seems fast on the street is like running in glue at the track.:(

I'd second that proposal !!

Cal, I'm OK with 3300# George

QUOTE Cal I know you have the racers interest in mind so RUN with it. Agreed !:cool: George

Hey Mike, Bobby from RPE just e-mailed and gave the news about the DB belt drives. Please just forward one to Bobby direct for my engine build. As soon as you have a price, let me know and I'll get a bank draft off to you right away. Thanks so much. Also, did my bank draft for the DB camshaft...

It's even simpler than that. If you are running faster than 8:50, you need a 25.5 cage .. PERIOD ! That is not stated in the TSO rules ( as of yet ) OR create a new class for faster than 8.50 ( might be UTS ) Ultra Turbo Street. In any event, we still need rules and SAFETY should be at...

Convert to a 16 volt system. That makes 'em work real good :cool: George

All the above suggestions and opinions are good ones BUT, there's still no definative rules. How do you go about building a competative TSO car to a smoke and mirror set of guesses and opinions. Who is in charge of setting the rules in TSO.? I'm sorry if I'm stepping on someones toes here...

Mike, you have a PM George

OK Guys, Lotsa opinions, guesses, assumptions and wishes on here with respect to the TSO rules for 2011. Can we get someone in charge who can make some definate, concrete rules so that cars can be built to those rules. Race season is "fast" (no pun intended ) approaching. I'd like to...

Why don't you get a 42-76 ball bearing unit. They spool up fast, can be used on the street and and strip and will go low nines all day. I'd check with Cal Hartline. He knows his turbos as well as anybody in the business and can probably give you a smokin' deal on one.;) George

Hey Mike, Hold one for me. I just want one for my stock right now.:) I don't have paypal so I'll send you out a Bank Draft along with my shipping address. Thanks, George

Hey John, if you are serious about getting a belt drive, it might be a good idea to get your name and committment down on this list NOW, as it may be a very long time before Mike can get "another" list of 10 to allow Danny Bee to do another run. Just a suggestion ;) George

Bobby told me somebodys motor was basically waiting on the belt drive. I would be happy to give mine up as long as I know they are going to be replaced!! Mike Mike, I believe that's my motor that Bobby is referring to.:D George
