Help on Racing....

I race my amc spirit locally on a circle track in Idaho. Alot of the competition are Ford Mustangs and Ford Pintos in my 4 cyl class. My car if very fast because I have the largest motor out there and its a very stout little car. It really pisses me off when people come up to me after the races and ask me if its a pinto! You can get away with a lot of things in circle track racing because youre suppose to keep the car"stock" but the track officials dont deal with these cars often so they have no clue what comes stock on them. You can basically get away with murder if you meet the weight specs such as a rear sway bar, ect..

My uncle owns an old Javalin that at one time was a racecar and needs a motor/trans. If he doesnt want to fiddle with it he might sell it cheap we just built my little cuz an amc hornet circle track car.

Just saw your post today. I've had a 70 Hornet in the works for a few years. It will make it to the track in 06. The rules I have to go by are similiar to yours except we can use a Ford 9in. and that's what i've got. I used a front cross member off of a matador, I left the right lower arm mounting holes stock and relocated the left holes toward the center so I have about -7 deg. camber on the right and +3 deg. on the left. I've circle track raced since 92 and helped since 90 and have a few wins but in Chevys and Nissans; but this coming year is going to be a uphill battle because there is very little info on circle track racing AMCs, maybe we should share information.
