Thanks for the video. I bought a MinnowFish carb in 1975 and ran on a VW Beetle for a couple of years. I am currently dusting it off out of storage and will put on another VW Beetle. It would be great to hear how you go with setting up your carb on your formula vee and to hear more about Bob's life and dedication to the carb.

This works 100% because I’ve just done it on my Vivaro, I stuck two wires in and wired it to my DeWalt drill battery and pressed the key and up it popped!

Absolutely brilliant - worked a treat. Thanks.

Very dangerous practice back feeding powder into bcm! This can damage bcm(uch) and cost you big money.

is the rack force for the wheel hard or light ?

Thanks, it works, one thing to add is if you want to connect another car or vans battery while its on the other car than please disconnect at least one of its terminals or it will not work

This shit looks like such a good time

Why are the steering links so song? Doesn't that induce bump steer?

Don't hold back Phil 👍 Have you thought about buying an aeroplane 🤣

Just stumbled on to your channel. Looks like a lot of fun! A lot of the cars were all over the track. We’re track temps low?

Not that I would do any better, but you, my friend, suck at this. Those racing lines?

I've got some of Palmers gravel. We could do some landscaping together 😂😂

Thanks I must look for one of these Minnow Fish carbs and try it. Or possibly use two? I currently run a 1 3/4 inch SU carb on my 1600 single port VW street engine (ported heads, W100 cam, light flywheel etc etc) and despite the naysayers it runs well. Come to think of it I have a 1275 A series that needs a carb too....

I ran a Reece Fish on my mini for a while (could not afford a Minnow). VERY easy to install and tune. It was brilliant in fine weather but if cool and/or wet, it iced up really badly. The result was around 8mpg.

I remember the fish carb back in the seventies by repute it doubled the milage of yank tanks.????

The Argyll GT looks like a grown up Clan Crusader, the front end has many styling cues from that car in particular, with the back end slightly less so. The problem with the Webers is that they have a poor progression circuit such that they are often likened to a switch - all or nothing. A far better option is the Dellorto DLRA carb, which has a much better progression circuit that improves mid range torque and even better still when its combined with the update kit that substitutes a spray bar instead of the secondary venturi to aid flow and fuel dispersion/atomisation. This extra flow and atomisation improves mid-range torque that results in quicker pick up out of the corners. Dells are know for better outputs than the IDFs on a size for size and with the update kit you can confidently drop a size to improve bottom end torque whilst still retaining top end power. The Fish carb certainly was a good alternative back in the day but things move on and I don't think the Fish has? The Fish shown here concerns me somewhat in that the flow looks to be restricted by the whole butterfly arrangement with thick spindle and chunky brackets. On a conventional carb the butterfly can be slimmed down substantially for even more flow but the hollow Fish spindle looks to prevent that.

Used a 1.5 minnow fish and fast road cam from Bob back in the late 60's early 70's with great results. Car was an Austin 1300 and it produced in excess of 70BHP at the wheels on Bobs rolling road. Excellent setup, the fish has been used on several cars since always with great results. I still have the carb and I would love to find a reasonable priced 1275 engined car to put it on.

I run a 1 5/8 fish on my 134 flathead willys I drive to work everyday, great carbs, need help no problem.

Will you have them on for Donnington? It looks so simple compared to a Weber. Very interesting design.

I like it sir, keep it up

Loved the video. Keep them coming. Good luck at Brands 🤞🤞

Great video. Really enjoyed it. Like the mix of in-car and out of car video. Good stuff. I'm a Vintage Vee racer in the U.S.. Keep the videos coming!

grate video just a bit of welding

Great video and story behind it. Thank you.

What track is this?? Man the U.K has some sick tracks

Hell of a save on lap 10. I thought for sure you lost it

Subscribed. Good stuff, I'm hoping to get into racing Vees here in the states one day since it is amazingly economical for motorsports.

I'd love some info to go with the vid, what class is this, whats the vehicle specs etc

19:56 see ya 👋

Hey man, I'm watching your videos for some time now. And I always wanted to be a racing driver but I don't have a racing school in my city and lots of money. But with you I learned about Formula Vee and I want to race in Formula wee I don't know how to be can you make a video about how to be a Formula Vee driver?

Just found you. Love a Formula Vee and congrats on the save in turn 1 (I think)

Not a bad result for a boogie track

Hi, hope your well. Just wondering if you could give me some advice. So I'm trying to save up my pennies this year to get a Vee to race. I'm based in East Yorkshire. I've only raced competively in karts so far so it's all pretty new to me. What should I be looking at when viewing a vee, anything that'd make it a no go? My budget's ~£7000. I've been looking on 750's website and Race Cars direct but haven't seen much. If you know anyone who might be considering selling a vee I'd love to get in touch. Cheers and good luck with the season. Hope to see you in the paddocks soon.

Great race craft there my friend! from a sim racer 😅 You're living my dream ! Awesome video 👍 👌

Can tell it was a busy day for the orange army with the state of the paddock hill gravel trap lol

I thought this was a game at first... Well held indeed!

Great save

Hi it’s kye

Pov: rookie iracing lobby

Hi there. Great video. Congrats on the great result. Can you tell me please what camera you are using? Also is there a special configuration and/or app you are using to have so many information on the screen? Thank you so much. Best regards from Brazil.

:o

This was awesome. How much effect does slipstream have on these cars? I saw that you left the trailing earlier than I expected, but I have also never driven these before so I became curious. Great content. 😄

'Promo SM'

Nice bit of driving

Great car dude!! How did you ended up?? Greetings from Argentina🤘

The v was a fun car to drive I had one from 1975 to 1986 hated sell the car but life got in the way .the next best thing to the v are the cycle carts .❤❤❤

bro, I swear you better cut that damn tag on your left glove.

wish I had money to be racist
