Reply to "Accelerator linkage "hanging up""

@Gordon Nichols Maybe I'll take you up on that. I think it's really cool that the color matches the coil. As you know, I don't have a distributor on my Spyder.

BUT, I have been looking really hard at Formula Vee, which basically requires a 009(running from 4k to 6.5k is all that matters). What is cool is that they finally allow a points eliminator(Pertronix or the like). They also allow disc brakes FINALLY. But they do stick with a link-pin front end and a swing trans.

Used Vees run from peanuts to 15k for a race-winning setup. Looks like fun, expensive fun. Compared to other forms of wheel-to-wheel racing it's cheap though.

I really like the Challenge Cup Series. It's a standard FV but with 15 x 6 EMPI aluminum wheels and a 200 treadwear Yokohama spec tire(195/50R15). A set of tires lasts at least a season for about $600. As opposed to a set of tires each race WEEKEND for Hoosier slicks!

FYI, that hexbar kit Luis posted is a bearing kit, and does not use rod ends like I did(and you did).
