Thanks everyone, I have to say it's very nice to wake up to answers from a helpful group of racers.
I am in Calgary Pete and will take you up on any advice/direction you can offer, thanks. I got to see, and sit in (that didn't help the addiction), Gord D's blue stude: #653, through the weekend. He was the one who aimed me here to get started....and graciously fed me German beer.
Malcolm UK is correct (and has a cool car): his Quote - "(My guess is there is no motor in your 'yellow peril' and you have a Nissan)."...... True; the Nissan engine set up will get 300hp to the wheels with a ton of reliability (further tunable to 400hp). seems like a good place to start.
Car choice; Hmmmmmmm......I never aspired to an Anglia 105e specifically, but now that I own the car and have been learning about the long racing pedigree of them, I really like it.....and.....I can't find mention on any of the LSR web sites or archives of a 105e having run at Bonneville, so that "road less traveled" part appeals to me as well.
That being said; I don't want to set myself up for frustration....or death, chasing the class record g/cbg (203mph) in the totally wrong car. but, Redhotracing's idea of.... E/cbgc (153mph) or f/cbgc (174mph) seems like a solid attainable goal.
(Redhotracing) suggests a blow through set up and to run on an open record. Can someone explain what blow through means and how does it work to run on an open record (g/cbgc)
Thanks for your patience with the newbie questions...there will be a lot more, and I promise to pay it forward when I can.
Thanks,
Brian
