Congrats Todd! That's awesome and I'm sure you will tear things up...in a good way.:unibrow: I can't wait for the coverage to come out after the event.

The list is really short for the Optima Challenge. I want to check the valves and timing but that's about it at this point.

My inspection and nut and bolt check is done. I found a bunch of bolts that needed a little torque. This car is alot like my motorcycles, lock washers and loctite. I can't believe it but my LF sway bar end link nut was missing! I know it wasn't when I scaled the car two weeks ago because I unhooked the arm from the swap bar and it was hanging with that nut. It must of fallen off the last time I drove the car. :willy: Wow, that would of been bad. DSE uses basically a jam nut on the top end link to arm, I replaced them with a nylon nut so they won't come loose again.

Tonight I tweaked the alignment. I made camber and toes changes and I'll leave it at that for now. :unibrow: Car feels good.

I also made a brake pad compound change out back. I bedded them in tonight and this is the first time I've had to dial rear brake out of the car. I took three turns out and the rears were still locking up first. The car is stopping KILLER! My brakes are finally damn good. :thumbsup: I'll be dialing rear brake out tomorrow and Sunday. I'm running a fast autocross Sunday at the speedway. I hope to get the car working very well for the optima challenge. I'm feeling pretty confident right now.

Give her Hell Todd!!!!
