Ok, well its been a while since I've updated this....







and In a nut shell (because I feel lazy and don't want to type a lot right now.) Since the last race I got some big ass tires/wheels 17x10.5 with 295/35 and tried to put them on the car without cutting anything.






which I mostly did, and it was fine sitting static. But the Chasing the Dragon hillclimb came and when I tried to actually drive it the fenders really started to cut the tires up so I had to hold back a bit and actually went slower than I did last year.. Also at the event I discovered the engine had vibrated the bolts holding the throttle body on in half...yes they broke in half...but just two of them so we bolted it back on as best we could and finished the race with boost leaking out from the TB.






So I got some Clinched brand ABS fenders and finally committed to cutting up the body so the 295's have proper room










Last race of the season is in 1 week back at Norton!
