HELP ME!!!! re: info about running IT hondas

[Knestis]

Thanks for the correction. Either I am getting old and the memory is fading or I am getting smarter--replacing '80s racing trivia with new educational research knowledge. Let's hope it's the latter...

I am also looking at getting into racing. IT seems like a logical place to start. I have been reading a couple of web sites that chronicle people's starting-out experiences. Here are two sites that you may find useful:

I disagree with Mr. nelson's comment above that without a Wber carb, this gen Honda can't be competitive. There are plenty of people out there running that miserable little Kuehnin thing, and doing quite well with it. You need the stock one set right, but a Weber is not magic. You can do more with them, but there's plenty of guys with CVCC cars withWebers getting passed up by CVCC cars with the factory issue carb. If you aren't running a CVCC, then maybe it makes sense, but don't think you need one to run.
