That's very respectable for LRP!
Well if you further the mods...I'm sure you can get there...and lower. Ask me how I know
Best was a :58 on a 235/45/17 RA1. The car at that time was making around 375 to the wheels. Knowing now the tire you're running, I'm even more impressed. Just popped a Ross ringland in cylinder #1 this weekend at NJMP so i don't think I'll be back running in time for LRP later this month. Depending on how bad the bore measures will dictate my rebuild schedule.
Wow what a great thread! Glad to see someone taking care of history right here. I would love to know what happened to the 2G Archer Racing Talon, not to steal any thunder.You must be logged in to view this image or video.You must be logged in to view this image or video.
Hi guys,
long time dsm'er here but rarely ever post on tuners but i thought i would add what i know about the 2g archer cars.
Three of the archers cars are in Canada. Two owned by Bruno who raced them in Canadian touring car when they were eligible and the last was bought by a guy that owns squid skins fiberglass. I run into him at bike shows and he talked my ear off about the talon. His cut it uo a ton though with converting pieces to carbon but has kept the livery intact.
Here is the guys website:

Thanks! The 2g cars have been dicussed in other threads. It is my understanding that one or two may still be around. There were three race 2G's. I know one for sure was sold to a Daytona based race team, stripped of the yellow livery, repainted white, and raced as a Mitsubishi Eclipse. Not sure if the other two are still around. I'm thinking about starting a general Archer Racing Thread to discuss all things Archer, as I like all of it. On that note, I was hoping to keep this thread's focus on these particular cars.
I love DSM history, so I stitched together this ad I found that shows off the Archer Racing 1G. Maybe it could help you add the proper decals to make the restoration completely accurate, but I'm sure you know what needs to be done.
I'm very excited to see the final results of your Archer Talons.
Any chance you're brining these to the Lime Rock Historics?
Keep up the good work Phil, and the updates. Track pics rock!
Why do you need a survey to post pics? I for one am very interested in seeing pics of these bad boys but particularly the videos. The more digital media we have of the history of road race 1g's the better. Post em up!...and if not here then the gallery.
I was suprised to see only a few seconds off from NA to Turbo. What do you suspect the reason is there?
