I'm preparing for my first road course event this Saturday. I'll be running the 3.2 mile loop out at spring mountain ranch in Pahrump where the Optima challenge is held. I need to get my accumulator plumbed and working, at least one tow hook made, and a couple other miscelaneous things before Saturday to pass tech. I was hoping to have my oil cooler set up done before my first event. I've been in touch with Ron Davis but haven't pulled the trigger yet. I'll just have to run hard and pull off the track and watch my temps. Once the accumlator is working ,I'll have 10 quarts of oil in the system so that should help some until I figure out exactly what direction to go with the oil cooler.

I've decided I like the original look of the car better. It's just to damn black with the new wheels and I like the 19" wheel out back. I've been kicking around narrowing my rear bozes and widining the fronts and sticking r888 rubber on them as well.:rolleyes: I just can't bring myself to bolt the bozes back on with those pilot sports. They just have no grip compared to the r888's.

Have a great time Todd! I made it out to Spring Mountain last year....VERY nice place!! :cheers:

I myself am really partial to the 19's although they both look good. Good luck with the road course.

3.2 mile road course sounds like a blast! I prefer the Bozes on your car too. :yes: Altho the tread pattern of the R888 is visually stimulating. :)

How about painting/powder coating the centers on your Forgelines? Silver or light Charcoal? Just a thought. Car looks great BTW! Shawn

Todd, that sounds like a ton of fun. So what is all needed to pass tech inspection on a road course like Spring Mountain?

I like the orginal rims as well
 

They really pop against the black...in pictures anyway.

I know there is a better selection on rubber in the 18 sizes, but I like the look of an 18 front, 19 rear on a 69. One of the reasons I have not changed mine out yet.

I would like to see your race wheels in a full polish.

They were really intended to be "Race" wheels until I got the taste of some real traction. I'll throw the Boze's back on after the race this weekend.

To pass tech for this sanctioning body in particular:

• Snell 2000 an up helmet
  Fire suit 3.2 A/1
  Neck collar 3.2 A/1
  Extinguisher bolted to the car within reach and over 2lbs (Specified Chemicals)
  Roll bar minimum of 1.75" for my weight(Roll bar not required but must be porper size
  Tow hook front or back

Since they mandate a maximum tire width of 285 in the street class, I had to go to the modified class. That brought a few extra rules into play. Here are the rest of the rules. http://www.redlinetimeattack.com/Upl...ttackRules.pdf

Good Luck Todd sounds like your living the good life now . All your hard work is paying off. I like the Boze wheels too.

I agree. The Boze really did "pop" against the black.
