Re: Roundel Repair?

The Roundel has actually split open with the enamel facing. The metal backing that pops in with the small grommets is still in place. I was hoping to just reattach the enamel facing. I was able to remove the remainder of the glue with Tide and a soft toothbrush. I am looking for some recommendations...

Re: Roundel Repair?

The glue has turned into a soft goo similar to gum and less sticky than rubber cement. Per advice from Blake I was able to remove most of it with a plastic knife and spoon. There is still a gummy layer that doesn't come off easily. It seems the metal is soft like aluminum with the enamel inlaid onto...

High test vs Regular?

Does anyone have hard data on running a car on 93 octane vs. lower octane/87? I know BMW recommends 91 or higher. But what does it really do or matter? Plus how about for cars other than a BMW what difference does it make?

Trailer Registrations?

I know of a fellow club member that registered their trailer in Maine. The cost seems too good to be true, around $10/year. In NY you must get your trailer inspected yearly, plus registered yearly for a cost of around $200, plus if it weighs over 1000lbs it must be insured so it works out to cost ju...

Re: FS 16" Steel Wheels

They are from our Honda Odyssey Minivan, but not sure other than that what they fit. To be more precise on the wheels they are 16"x7" they weigh 23.5 lbs. and have a 50 mm offset with a standard 5 bolt star pattern. They are in very good condition with no bends or rust.

Bolt In Roll Bar?

I am looking to see if anyone has a used Bolt in Roll Bar that would work with a Hans device that they are looking to sell cheap. I am hoping to use this as a temporary setup till I have saved for a full cage. Let me know.

Toyo Proxes RR?

Has anyone used the new Toyo Proxes RR yet for the track? I currently use the BFG R1 and it works very well but they are getting to be cost prohibitive. The Toyo Proxes RR is $50 less per tire and seems similar. Please let me know. http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires.jsp?tireMake=Toyo&tireModel=Prox...

WTB S52 motor

I am looking for an S52 motor to replace my broken one. I am looking for one that had been running before it was removed and hopefully has lower miles. Please keep an ear or eye out and PM or contact me.

Thank you Sincerely,
