Guys, if you look at the ITCS in the GCR you will see, in the ITR section, many gaps of information. Some of the specs were hard to track down and in the interest of getting ITR up and running we left out a fair amount of information on some cars.

A few months back I asked for volunteers to help in filling in those gaps, and Earl and Josh volunteered to do so. The two of them, and myself, then split the ITR ITCS sheet into 3 sections and went to work....and Earl and Josh finished WAY ahead of me....lol....

But it is now done, except for valve sizes on 4 cars, and will be included in the new GCR next year. If anyone wants to see a copy or has a particular interest in ensuring a specific car's specs are spot on, let me know and I'll email a copy of the revised ITR spreadsheet to you.

Thanks agian to Earl and Josh for taking on this thankless task.

Aw, shucks, it warn't nuthin.

For the record though, if there are any errors found in the new info, that was Jeff's section. Don't care where, it was Jeff's :)

Key-rect. I took the section entitled "Error Filled." Earl had "Sparkling with Accuracy" and Josh had "Consistently Correct."

Seriously, Josh straightened us out on BMWs, and Earl had some obscure she-ite to find.

Earl is pretty good with the obscure sometimes. He has had me double take on a few of his rather random pieces of knowledge.

I'm curious if you guys covered the oversite that the 2.8l Z3 came from the factory with both 16" and 17" rims. I'd hate to get nicked for racing on stock 16" rims when they're not on the spec line.

I don't think we did. Is that the case?

He's right. But I think I got it right. Spreadsheet is on the other computer though, can't verify right now.

EDIT: Forgot I can access it from here. Jeff, it was right in the one I sent to you, but not right in the rollup you sent back the other day.
