Working on cooling duct backing plate. The larger hat will make it easier to get the cooling duct in place.-
To Hell with politics. RIP, Bob.

Got it, if it stayed the same with a full press, that would likely rule it out. To check the alternator, carefully place a long prybar on the alternator and put your ear on the other end. Bad bearing sounds are amplified through and you’ll...

I’ll give the pry bar technique a shot. It’s so weird because it sounded like it was coming from behind the engine but I guess the sound resonates weirdly in the engine bay.

First event in the books. Finished 9th overall on PAX out of 140 drivers on a mid 30 second course where I dont think I got to full throttle once.Still figuring out these Yokohamas. Tried to treat them like my Kumho V730's and ran them at 28...

I’m already wanting to go back, such an awesome track, haha. I put the car in sport mode and left it in 4th gear the majority of the time. I was able to get it on the limit of the tire on some of the corner exits and didn’t really notice the...

Are you noticing the Advance track intervening in turns? Did you notice Hot rear brakes at the end... (see full post)

My car actually didn't have oiling issues it did in the beginning but an ECU revision somehow solved it. I do think a GT350 pan is more cost effective though but yeah I know what you tried to make as a point. I also suspect that at least will...

Verus Engineering wing installed! It’s well made and looks great in person. Very nice carbon fiber. That’ll do for the aero for now.
