An original TD is more than welcome!The showfield is segmented by manufacturer. And some clubs get their own space on the field.The Speedster Owners Club that the TDr guys hang with have their… -

Thankfully, I don’t have one. If I did, I wouldn’t have gotten home the night my clutch cable broke. 😉

A dirty fabric cover can do the same.For the first few years of her life, my Duchess lived outside during the driving season. I had an Evolution3 car cover; at the time, probably the best all-weather cover on the market. It got dirty. Nothing you could see, but it magically transformed into sandpaper. Thankfully, no harm to the gel coat at all.…[Read more]

Hi Greg,
For polishing… 1,100 to 1,300 RPMFor cutting…2,000 to 2,500For a beginner (which I am) a dual action buffer (aka random orbital) is safer than an orbital. The latter just spins.
