alright... wheels are decided... better or worse...
https://i.imgur.com/nUEkxw4.jpg also, like the reuse of the Corvette bumper? this thing has been bouncing around for a long time - now it's a wheel chock loaded... still hate that spoiler... https://i.imgur.com/zLTmizph.jpg will need to dust when I arrive https://i.imgur.com/hjk8qFwh.jpg truck serviced https://i.imgur.com/iIJlf3Hh.jpg |
Well, the weather forecast for Willow CA shows rain on Saturday. I spent a fair penny on the 200tw Continentals and Apex wheels... and will likely use the old ones
https://i.imgur.com/7x0sx9sh.jpg I know, I know, 340 tread wear is laughable but it's supposed to rain all day Saturday and most of Sunday. I'll use the Connies later and in July in Portland... now I just have to make it to Willow - and honestly, that's not likely going to be a problem - it's supposed to be nice tomorrow through Friday (yeah). I'll pull the car out tomorrow and also figure how to keep water out of the intake... |
stickies on
https://i.imgur.com/Yv9ijcbh.jpg rain on https://i.imgur.com/vHkKDith.jpg reload https://i.imgur.com/4CJk3xFh.jpg I'd be faster in the dry with the 200tw tires, but these give me a better chance on staying on the track when it rains...only time will tell if it was a good move. |
loaded and ready for adventure... fun fact, less rain - maybe even no rain... ah well

Adventure pictures
https://i.imgur.com/PYJpItTh.jpg I admit that this was hamming for the camera.... not that anyone else would ever do such juvenile things (though I wish he'd gotten the end where I punted a cone about 40 feet) https://i.imgur.com/SnCSveCh.jpg on the track https://i.imgur.com/hulbBsRh.jpg In the wet - had it totally stayed wet, I probably would have done pretty well https://i.imgur.com/bvapGR7h.jpg https://i.imgur.com/A7D2Z0xh.jpg there are some pucker factor corners at Thunderhill... this isn't one https://i.imgur.com/AxDJY7ph.jpg this is https://i.imgur.com/TNwqL3dh.jpg up a steep hill, a blind left corner, then a blind right sweeper.... I went off this corner... pretty sure I was airborne https://i.imgur.com/0tUpAHah.jpg dry autox https://i.imgur.com/ltWaSfAh.jpg |

thanks. the photographer is well worth the little he charges for pictures.
it arrived https://i.imgur.com/y489Ypvh.jpg and put the old wing back on https://i.imgur.com/j9QNqfjh.jpg did an oil change https://i.imgur.com/Ba6sZ4gh.jpg oil looked okay and the spark plugs showed a touch rich and that I might be able to add a degree of timing... but at this point, it's safe so since I'm changing the entire fuel and spark system next.... I'll leave it for now. I'm pretty close to doing the port EFI swap. Need a few parts, order them tomorrow. |
Time to clean up the shop....
https://i.imgur.com/yysm3JSh.jpg yes, I can get another project in there :) https://i.imgur.com/1uCNJyBh.jpg street tires off https://i.imgur.com/wKao8ich.jpg and get the racing tires back on it https://i.imgur.com/xFGssQHh.jpg |
fancy things
https://i.imgur.com/SyBp5GLh.jpg good grief do they wrap this well https://i.imgur.com/X09I06fh.jpg and the throttle body https://i.imgur.com/UwKOEoCh.jpg https://i.imgur.com/3fE00UMh.jpg good to 850 hp - calculated I needed 58 lb injectors, these are 72 - or 20% more... https://i.imgur.com/QbiiDX2h.jpg |
