Well crap, I might as well not go if AJ's going to be there. I'll for sure not be getting any racing done then!

[RacerBill]

Adding more charge to the Charger? Or you getting it ready for ORP this weekend?

Actually, 1) getting the transmission back in after replacing the clutch last October.

At the same time, I am going over as much as possible without taking the engine completely apart. So, let's see.

2) reface the flywheel

3) replace water pump

4) exchange exhaust manifold - original had open air pump port

5) remove egr pipe - JB Weld intake manifold port

6) remove catalytic converter

7) replace timing belt

8) replace front suspension bushings

9) replace brake calipers

10) replace oil pan with baffled pan

11) clean EVERYTHING! degrease, wire brush

12) wire wheel all brackets, etc - prime and paint.

13) clean out bolt holes, etc with taps.

That enough?

BTW, when the clutch went out, I could not find one piece of the clutch pad. Nothing! What a surprise when I was cleaning off the starter motor, and all of a sudden all kinds of clutch pad pieces start falling out. Hope I got them all out!


Back to work!

I got to meet Todd (tefkatt) yesterday, so he does in fact exist and isn't some 13 year old kid sitting at home on his computer pulling our chain. He seems like he might almost be more excited for this event than me!

Nope, they were throwing me the pink flag, trying to tell me to stop driving like a granny.

No, I was too busy watching the classic Honda Vs. Mazda battle. Looked like Sebring without the contact.

Todd thanks for the info, looks like a great weekend

Are the races 45 minutes in length or is it a specific # of laps with a max time of 45 minutes?

Any chance for a 10 minute warmup on saturday morning? I know I would love it to get at least an idea for suspension settings before qualifying.

Also anyone know if Dogs are allowed?

Absolutely not. Mid Ohio is very vocal about not allowing dogs on the grounds.
