I’m visiting Dallas from Seattle and I just went to the Summit Racing shop in Arlington. So nice and what a HUGE store. I was a kid in a candy store!

I appreciate you bro, but I’m leaving for Austin at 9am to my sister’s. I’ll be back soon though and hit you up.

No pics, but got alignment and brake fluid flush done today.

Alignment - Completely stock PP except for SPC camber bolts (bottom hole) and OEM 14mm bolts on the top hole up front. My shop was able to get -2.2 deg on each side up front. Rear is completely stock, so it's stuck at -1.5 both sides with 1/16" total toe in. Outside shoulders on the front tires were taking a beating from the past couple Auto-X events, so hope this will help.

Brake fluid flush - Flushed with ATE Type 200 in prep for track events in the near future.

Rotors Turned, bled the brakes, new pads, and *drumroll* ...changed the spark plugs! All in one day. I am a man now. I am also dirty, bruised, scraped, and slightly poorer. I am so happy I was able to do the plugs!

Got my sensor interface wired and connected to power. I am pulling RPM reference off of coil pack number 1. I have not connected it to my laptop yet to verify it is reading. Tomorrow I hope to daisy chain my gauges to the interface and to my data logger for a dry run to make sure it will record.
