Cool guys - can't wait to meet you!
but... two weeks to go and the fun is beginning. This afternoon David opens up the trailer to pull the car out and is greeted by a trail of oil running from the drivers side front corner of the Camaro all the way to the back door of the trailer . It didn't take long to discover the the left front shock is toast - having a cut in the line to the remote reservoir. It's probably (ok - definately) best that it happened now - we have a fighting chance of getting it fixed before we have to leave. If it had happened when we were on the road... yech.... http://www.onelapcamaro.com/2010/shock%20cut.jpg We also found that the rear axle bearings were seaping a little bit (we actually noticed this last week after sprinkling Penny's wheels at RTTC). Not a huge deal but given the mileage that we're looking at we'll try to get them changed out early next week. I love cars... |
It never ends man. Especially when you drive the piss out of them. :thumbsup: I can only imagine how glad you are to be teamed up with Pozzi. Between the traveling, racing, and all the problems you'd be living in a tent. :rofl:

I'm constantly break crap on my car.. that's what happens when you run them.
But each time I fix something it's a little better than before.. so breaking is usually a blessing.. except the f'ing PS pump at Optima.. but I digress.. lol Make a list of all the crap that you thing can go wrong.. hose clamps, fuses, brackets, alternators, line repair kits.. shock oil.. third members ;) Murphy is a lil' bitch at times.. As Nick sometime about having a nail go through his tire's inside sidewall BACKWARDS.. We're all pulling for you guys! |

Do you have an extra coil pack? Injector? I just keep thinking of stuff you should have in that sweet little trailer of yours. lol |

James,
Just found out the nick in the hose was where it made contact, but the lower 45 deg AN fitting is cracked and it's leaking there, it sprayed all over and made such a mess the trailer looked like someone poured a quart of oil on the floor and it ran the full length of the car and out the back door! I had to hose it and scrub it out. There wasn't oil in the trailer at Spectre, so it must have sprung a leak on the way home in the trailer, and every bounce pumped oil out! Spectre wants to fully weld the tube at a later time but this will get us by. After loading and unloading the car it seems to have better throttle response! :unibrow::unibrow::unibrow::unibrow: I like the POZZI TUNED logo you did! :thumbsup: |

I spoke to Penske this morning - if we send the shock back today they will repair it Monday and have it back to us Tuesday! Awesome customer service! |
