Bradford PA, would be awesome since I lived there for a very long time!
I used to run the ice races up on Red House, but since global warming that would be dangerous :)

Noise limits?

I am ordering my exhaust components for my V8 MR2. I need to know if there are going to be any issues with noise at any hill climb event for 2007. If so what are the constraints? I have a dual 3" rear exit system from a 4-valve 7000rpm V8. Running in S3.

Scattershield? How to do this on a MR2?

I have a Cadillac Northstar V8 using the GM 4T80E Automagic transaxle (manually shifted) in the back of my S3 classed Toyota MR2. I am using a 16 guage steel firewall. The GCR states that I need a scattershield. How is this done on a transverse rear placement setup? All of my linkage, and electrics ...

Good find. Personally I think these should be manditory.

There is also a switch that shuts off the pump if oil pressure drops to zero, or some low number. I have a Moroso version from year ago that works well.

Since I am having to "commute" from a few states away, can I get the car pre-tech'ed before any events to make certain the car is ready for race day? This is a newly prepared car (class S3) and has never been tech'ed before. Or is there anyone at Summit Point (close to me.. sorta) that you...

2007 Schedule?

We are busy building the RSm V8 MR2 (S3 #72) for the 2007 series, my business planner (wife) needs to know when the schedule will be up for the 2007 season?

If I am too early on this question I am sorry.

Toyota MR2 / Cadillac V8 - what class?

1986 Toyota MR2 using a Cadillac DOHC V8.
Gutted chassis with 10-point cage
Single seat

What class will a special car like this run in. Where can I find a complete set of rules? Do you use the GCR?

Tires? will slicks be okay or do I have to use DOT tyres?

Thanks in advance
