To everyone that dropped me a line, and are interested I thought I would
list some of the highlights of my G-Prod 1147 cc Spitfire that I race in
the SCCA.

Right Hand Drive
1147 cc Engine 
Vinolia Pistons
Deves Rings w/ Total Seal
Carrillo Rods
Custom one piece S.S. Valves
Titanium Valve Spring Retainers
Billet Alum. 1500 Rockerstands (I make them 300.00 set)
Roller Rockers
Moldex prepared crank
Electramotive Ignition off crank
Custom Alum. water pump
Custom Front Suspension ( Longer upper and lower A-arms shortened rack)

Hewland Gear Custom Alum. Spitfire Tranny
Full Fiberglass Bonnet, Deck Lid, Fenders and Dog House
Quick Ratio Shifter Lengthened for proper reach
Accumulator
EGT and other Instruments
2" Ground clearance
and other misc. stuff

I have been racing since 1989 but my Spit started in 1971 or earlier out
of the Detroit area by Mike Weaver. For the last 6 or 7 years we have
been racing Nationals in the SCCA. The car is very quick and has
qualified as high as 4 th in 1997 and ran 3 rd before having a driver
induced problem. Took 1998 off to work on a new house, start a new
addition to our family which is due in December (our first!) and due to
a SCCA ruling that a cylinder head that many of us have used for many
years was illegle based on the whining of an MGA racer.

Also please note that I have the mold for many types of open cars for
their plexiglas wingshields, if interested e-mail me a fax number and I
will send the details.

Thanks everyone let me know about what you are racing,

Chris Crisenbery, Rascal Racing
