I found with that deep Sheridan spoiler that (a) it's too low for places like SOW with nasty curbs and ruts (b) it blocks nearly all airflow to the brakes, so I have to hookup the ducts to use it. More commonly I've used a different one that is not quite as low.

what say you? Will I be able to race this and not knock it off and trip over the new front spoiler?

I like the dpoiler, who makes it?

JMZ. Did that car come out of Colorado? It looks very much like the car I used to compete against 25 years ago. Ran against him in SCCA and PCA. Husband and wife team and she was damn near as fast as he was.
Back then 2.8 was the legal limit and no twin plugs were allowed.
You might have a dickens of a time trying to run 245's on the front.
Great car by the way

Andy, it is the very same car.



I used to drool over that car back in the day
Dave and Ellen Ferguson
Dave gave me my first ever race rubber in a set of used tires
A big improvement to the p6 tires I was running at the time
They introduced me to drivers ed. around 1988

Sheradin (as in Roger) used to……I thought he retired but seems some one may still be making them.
Need to keep a spare as easy to destroy.
Would like a source as well.
