Hi Tom (@bbong718), I would recommend getting your engine overhauled in the very near future. I know the Radical manual says you can go longer but the only people I know of that have had good luck ru...

@raider89, Thanks for the update. I am glad to hear the issue is resolved. I had never heard that before. I am sure others will find this useful in the future!

Thanks, I thought it was for cooling only. SOLVED: I talked to a Radical race team in the UK, explained the issues. They had an interesting take. They had experienced similar issue trying to get f...

I spoke with a friend at Radical and he assured me that the Factory is aware of the concerns and is working on a solution. But, he didn’t give me any other information.

@buczp, congratulations on getting you SR5 back on Track! You have an amazing car there !

Finally..after months it seems of various issues, the #50 SR5 is finally running strong! Since buying it this past March she's been plagued with electrical issues (noise), fuel starving (fuel pump/wi...

No, did not share that detail. My new car apparently had several air leaks in the system, so they removed side pod to get access for tracing those problems. In doing so, did the tank drain. Frankly...

I just found out from local Dealer/race team that I am supposed to drain the air tank (south humid) every track weekend to remove moisture/water. How and where?

@raider89 A good question! I've been told the same thing with my new Geartronics shift gear on my SR8. But there's no drain opening on the tank! It seems you're expected to remove the tank from the ca...

@raider89,did they tell you how to do it? I have never done it. I can see how it might be a good idea in humid environments, but I don’t even know how it would be done.

Bought an Old SR3 2003 version last winter (covid-19 project). Chassi needed a ton of work. After a shakedown at a go cart track a few weeks back, took it to a proper racetrack yesterday. It was rain...

I’m not an expert on carburetors, but it sounds like you could nave a stuck float valve or similar issue going on. When was the last time the car ran properly? Is this the first time that you have r...

If they're replaceable, I'd do it. If I'm seeing the issue correctly it may cause some pad binding at times. When you let off the brakes the pads need to be able to pull back a little so they don't ...

@rjbender - I now have nutserts like you and remove the rear of the diffuser the same way. I highly recommend adding these if you are doing it the old way with the long 6" bolts. Removing those is a p...
