    Tony, my name is Brian Stark. I vintage race a Chevron B36 and just bought a B29. I understand you had one for many years. I am looking for a good starting point for front and rear spring rates. Car has 220 front and 230 rear and that seems quite soft, but I don't know. Any help is appreciated. Thanks, Brian

    Thanks Tony, this is the Bill Brack car. Pat Phalan sold it to a guy in Arizona who never drove it. I was able to get the car along with a set of body moulds for a lot less then he was asking. The car is actually in very good shape, engine new by Quicksilver. The trans needed some help and we are putting new shocks and springs in it. Everything else was good. Also adding a bead seat. I may need to bother you for some info.
    Thanks,
    Brian

    My plan is to take the car to Road America for the May SVRA race. I live in Milwaukee so that is my home track. I would have liked to have a test day somewhere first but that isn't working out. That is why I was asking about set up. Even though I have raced the B36 for years I am a little apprehensive about the first time in the car. Glad to hear it is somewhat forgiving. Although all Chevrons seem to write you a letter before you lose it. After Road America probably will take it to Mid Ohio in June. I added a picture of car to my page...... Brian
