The current car count is 87, we will be running the North course which is 1.5miles long.....I fear it is going to be more of a demolition derby than a road race. The track has some really long straights in it, which means low powered cars (like our VW) are going to suffer.
Weather is suposed to get down to 40 degrees and a high of 60....hmmmm think we should bring snow tires along just in case?
Stuff done to the car since the last race......
-Oil change
-bleed brakes
-retention the rear drum brakes
-swapped in the spare transmission
-swapped the driver seat
-realigned
-new Dunlop tires
-new ghetto front air damn
-ghetto ram air
-cleaned the air filter
-new front Hawk brake pads
-junkyard fan control relay module (still haven't tested it)
-went over the car and retightened loose bolts
-new windsheild.....I put a small crack in it previously coming back from a rally-x....and now it goes all the way across the window....DOH! Also need to see if we can get a replacement windshield visor.
Amazingly....that is it! I can't believe how "good" the car has been. The motor still hasn't been opened up....other than our transmission issues (which all started w/ some some sloppy mechanic work) the car has been rock solid.....hope I just didn't jinx us....
Big thanks to Metric Auto in Woodbury for helping.
