    More updates!

    Check list down to 16 items!

    Entry form for 9/10-11 regional going out today (late, but better late than sorry!)

    Rol cage and sholder harness tabs finished last Friday.

    Today's tasks include fabricating the passenger door cover, mounting the heater, dusting, and radiator - filling the system and checking for leaks.

    Appointment set for an alignment before heading to Mid-Ohio Friday afternoon.

    :119: (really need a smiley for the Red Mist!)

    Downdates (can't really call them updated!) Car is on the trailer, stuck in gear and front wheels will not turn. Guess I'll start looking at the spare engine/drive train.
    Narration on this weekend will be on my website shortly.

    Updates - Where do I go from here? I had my annual tech done this past weekend while I was up in Mid-Ohio. They handed me the weight slip showing both corner and total weight. Red Mist had set in pretty good by them, so I didn't really hear the comment as I came off the scales. Looked at the slip last night, and had to look twice more. Turns out I removed a lot more rust than I had thought. GCR weight = 2430, actual weight = 2408, 28 lbs UNDER! Good news, that was with the roller wheels and tires, not the race setup, and without the front air dam. Bad news, it had a full fuel load.

    But, and this was really a surprise, the cross corner weights are exactly 50/50!

    Now I'm going to have to fool around with the weight and screw up the cross weights!
