Back On Track

[tsiboosted]

Well after 2 months of not being able to race....this weekend I will be back on the track !!! New TRE Stage 3 transmission is all in and good to go. New brakes all the way around, more wiehgt loss (extra seat and mounts gone now). Last night I spent about an hour and a half chasing 2 boost leaks down. One was actually at the the throttle body elbow. Made a gasket for it and no more leaks Fresh Red Line oil, brakes bled, cooling system flushed. Have been wrenching on the car every night this week.

Going to be taking it up to the local shop for a MUCH needed alignment. Go over the car and nut & bolt it with my paint pen and we should be good to go for this weekend. Its going to be nice to be back on the track after a 2 month layoff. Still some dialing in to do with the ride height and boost control but I think we can get that all squared away on Saturday during practice

Well this weekend I am having a chassis setup guy come out and cornber wight the car. And basically dial my car in for the track. Recently we have been struggling with ride height and corner balance in the car. Been chewing through tires way too fast. Going to get a great alignment put on, toe adjusted, camber/caster the whole 9 yards as they say. Will be nice to finally have the car setup good so i can jsut worry about driving it

I missed 2 events due to the tranny giving out on me in Round #2. So I am almost all but out of the championship race this season. But its not always about winning the thing. The car is so much better now with coilovers and the new TRE Stage 3 transmission and I am REALLY looking forwad to the NASA Pro races this year at Road Atlanta and beyond.

I'll keep everyone up to date this weekend on how the car is running after the setup goes on. Cant wait to get back out on the track after a 2 month layoff

Post up the corner-balance and alignment sheets if possible. I'd be interesting to see what he sets you up compared to my 2g.
