You guys are getting quite formidable in that car and will be more once you figure out how big it is and understand it better! I cannot believe how many people have bought these cars in recent months, so it should be a fun battle all year long.
I wish I could do more ProSolos this year (and my finishing position officially nixed other events), but racing on index is definitely not ideal! I'd only ever done a couple DC ProSolos which is maybe why I never loved the format, but I really enjoyed the event and site in NJ. How are your tires looking after the alignment? My front shoulders are already pretty worn, so I may not even get 80-100 runs out of my BFGs with constant rotation. |

Was under the car on a four post lift yesterday. The dif is a little salty. I should probably clean the underside.
Was happy (pleasantly surprised?) to see that the all the axle bolts (and everything else that I hadn't seen earlier) were still lined up with their paint marks.

Tires look fine alignment wise. The ones on front rolled over a little, but I think that's due to Kevin's driving style. I still expect to do at least 100 runs easy (assuming they don't suddenly go dead around run 80) with a flip somewhere around run 60. Tires will swap F<->R each event. Square setups are nice.
