Bring more credit cards next time..... and some tools!

You know me -- I HATE working on cars while at a track event! Seems like that's all we did this weekend. Poor Rob! LOL

Oh --- the reason for the credit cards -- I need some A/C in that little shop! Damn it was a bit warm this weekend there.

Got to thinking about the rear of OY ---- between Sonoma and Thunderhill -- I dropped the panhard bar a total of 1/2" !!

How's that burnt tire checker?? Would have been interesting to see what temps I had that last run! I was pushing it pretty hard out there.

I was thinking about that also, I get it's to increase the grip. Is it because you're driving that much harder?...Hot weather snotty tracks?...

It's great to be able to see/feel the difference by making a fairly quick adjustment with a few wrenches....especially when the adjustments stay where they're supposed to.

Yes ---- all of the above -- #1 I'm driving a lot harder... so I managed to finally find the limits of the old original settings Ron did when we re-did the car. Add a little summer heat... Add desire to not let AOM get the upper hand. LOL

My tires are just DONE after a weekend.... 6 or 7 sessions is all I'm getting out of a set these days. I used to go two full weekends.
