I had another great time at the latest CAM event at SCCA.

The first time I did not make any changes. Here are some vids and movies.

I decided on the 10 gal, with duck foot pick ups. I have a 1 quart fuel filter that should help...

I haven't updated in awhile....

I ordered the ATL fuel cell.



And a few fittings from summit.



A few cable ties and Im ready to race.





I have made 4 events this year, almost the same I made all of last year. The car has been performing pretty good. Mark, Dan and Alcino have been great competition. There are a few videos up on my youtube page.

I was having a slight rub on the inner fender in the back so I made some .050" thick wheel spacers and problem solved. I may even be able to drop the rear another 1/2".



and a shot from the last event with the CAM crew.

Wow went all out with the lightweight AL can. Nice purchase.

Are you going to build a fuel cell cage?

Yep, it wasn't that much more for the Al upgrade.

I will be building something that can handle a roll over, but not a full out wheel to wheel legal 1" square tube cage. But mine will not hang below the trunk floor. Im making room for aero.

Cool. A diffuser? That's what I want to do on mine.

I will send you a sketch of my design.

Hey guys, I have been getting a few PMs about car status.

First some life stuff, my son is now 3 months old! we had to buy another car race red focus ST. Which is fun for a wagon and 33mpg 252hp 270ft-lbs.


I have made it to 8 SCCA events in CAM this year. The car and driver keep improving. I will post some videos in the next few days. and I will post up results for the events as well.

Our CAM class is all pre79 and we average 12 cars per event. This has made the class extremely fun and competetive. The event yesterday had places 2 to 9 within 1 second of eachother on a 50 second course.

Hey Bryce,

With all the yacking on this site about NorCal events, we'll have to see your Falcon up here at some point. Are you ready for a road course, maybe even USCA, if they return to Laguna Seca next year? Hint, hint, hint. Good to see you're still in action!

My car is not ready for the big course. I need some safety add ons first. I only run a lap belt in my bucket seats. No roll bar.

i am installing the fuel cell soon. then maybe more to come. Or I build the new car I have been designing for the last year or so.
