Beginner Asphalt Circle Track - Duster??

Someone I would talk to would be Curtis AKA Waggin! I cant remember if it was dirt track of asphault but i know hes done some A body circle track racing.

Calling Waggin! You out there? :)

Riddler Find a Neon as there cheap and the DOHC neon engine makes more power than the civics. Plus the 5 speed and other parts are cheap.

Find a cheap neon and they can be swapped to manual for next to nothing.

X2 An acquaintance of mine runs one and does quite well.

Cheap would be nice. I wonder how they compare suspension wise. The guy I know mentioned the Civic has good adjustability.

rlevs hay get it going any time with the kids is good

Agreed. In the end nothing matters more.

green1 Back in the early 70's, I worked at a shop that ran 55 Chevys, short ovals. It basically involves suspension. Huge Franllin drum brakes, but that was before disc. To set up the suspension, it's called swedge. That was my area.

We welded in stiffening plates at the front coil spring mount, with a hardened nut. Then a threaded hardened all thread thru it, to the top plate of the spring. With a nut welded to it- easy adjust for track, weather, etc. Pop the hood and crank on it.

When you power out of a corner, the driver side tire want's to lift, also taking pressure of the driver rear tire.

I bet with a hemi torsion bar on the pass side, easy adjustments.

As far as the rear, you need quick adjustable coils. Track conditions keep changing.

Interesting. I have fair (not great) fabrication and welding skills. I don't think they allow much modification. I was told the cars are stripped down, a simple roll bar installed, and a fire suit is required.

Unfortunately the track (Stateline Speedway near Spokane) has nothing online I can find. I'll have to call for details.
