I had similar problems with my racing Spit. Wouldn't restart after the engine heat soaked. The only way to get it to restart was to pour cold water on the intake manifold to cool it. After I had the

I suspect the GT6 rear suspension will work much better than the Spitfire's swing axles. Years ago, I tried racing a Spit with an open diff for one weekend. It was horrid. The inside rear got so ligh

We lost the right rear trailer tire on the way to the Kastner Cup race at Laguna Seca. It was near Stockton on a really bumpy concrete section of I5. A passing driver started waving frantically at me
