What tracks did he run? I looked through SCCA data back to 1993 and the only JH I found running was the old Huffaker car in 1995 for Prod. Where is this IT trim car, and, is its' owner still around? Be interesting to get some info from them. I'd heard rumors of it, maybe from you last year and Jeff too, but I have not met a soul who has actually seen the car nor remembers seeing it run - and I know some 20 year IT vets from Atlanta and Northern Florida. I'd just like to see the car and talk with the fellows to get some solid race info.
5" is indeed the ride height minimum for JHs. Not sure what is up with mine, but I've got that in spades.
We didn't do coilovers based on conversations with Joe Huffaker back in Novemember of last year. Basically, his advice was to use the springs we are using, approprate dampeners, get the car low, weld the diff, use a panhard rod, and go like stink. They won Prod again in 1995, so they must know something. Looking back on it I wish I did go with coil overs since it'd help a bunch with setup., a whole bunch. Still might do it, but I just need to get the car going first and see how it goes. $$$ figures too.
