A week from today I pick up a new toy
Been wanting to try one of these for at least 6-7 years now Big class out here often 30-40 cars. Also think it will reinvigorate me towards racing. Learning something new and more enthusiasm to learn/race Boy I’m going to be slow for a while Attached thumbnail(s)

Ivey is the hot ticket
This car has the Ivey upgraded carb kit And a fresh engine with only two events on it But not built by Ivey Built by own race mechanic of 25 years, so I totally trust the builder He has a flow bench and did a comparison test of FF heads a few years back with heads from 4/5 different manufacturers…. Figured a few tricks out himself |

Figured a few tricks out himself The Ivey folks are great. They've coached me through a number of Weber issues and have a vast collection of parts (Weber) Those little Ford Four bangers aren't rocket science. There aren't many secrets other than attention to detail. Have fun with it. I'd love to drive one but I doubt I'd fit (6'4")... |

Very cool, Brant. So nearly a go kart. Your 914 racing experience should position you well to drive a momentum open wheeler. I'm sure it will be a blast.
