And the last time I looked Judge Charlie Smith was holding my 22 for me... and that, gee , was years and years ago... he probably sold it by now.

haha... I did that one time when I was in the dentist chair. I zoned out by driving Road Atlanta! Works great!

GTE for an alignment today. Greased the brakes and front sway bushings. New wheel on order to replace the busted Enkie at TGPR. Will try to get two more W/E's from my Toyo RA1's. This event and hopefully January at TGPR. I also put hose clamps on my new intakes hoses. I thought I might be getting a vacuum leak. Guys, I'm already getting excited!

OD, you need to check out this thread on the GA forum: http://garx8club.com/forum/viewtopic...&t=1676&hilit=

I need to get the car checked out, but it should be good. New tranny and diff fluid last week Replaced slave cyl.
=BTW - I am a believer in BG Synchro Shift fluid - a noticeable diff in the ease of shifts! Seriously.
Should just need oil change, good overall inspection, and good to go.


15!

to summit today for the boost juice and tranny/diff oils
got a set of Denso plugs(colder heat range) at a unbelieveable price,
new car bo tech bobcats for the rear and already had the xp 8s for the front
2 new nittos, and the other ones fipped,
new can of ATE fluid--yall do know you can put the unused fluid in a "baggy" and it well keep?
I have a 650 or 680 (cant remember which) cca odessy battery that i will sell for $90 if anyone wants it--i never ran the battery--sure is lighter. I installed it and it crank the car well even with my sc, but i didnt have a mount for it so i took it back out.
I think the wife is coming down to experience the track ride and possibily one or both daughters! Down boys--they are beatiful. Bringing my shotgun also
will bring my efi dude and laptop for data collection.
Its starting to get good!

I'm getting excited. My goal for the weekend is going to be to get turn 5 nailed every time. Here is my study clip: http://www.charlottesoftware.com/Roe...5_Roebling.wmv

I believe this is the way to do it.

(dbl post alert!)

Jackie, I just spent a little time looking over the documentation you sent out. I would like to say that you guys really put out a great package. The information included is great, especially info for those that have never been to the track before. I know that this event will be one we judge all others by. Your input and attention to our threads has been fun. I know you have lots to do but you still find the time to stop in and make us smile. Thanks!
