    Consider repairing the harness. There appears to be enough wire remaining to make the repair. Get some heat shrink, waterproof connectors and have at it. Tie it out of the way once repaired. Take the money saved and sign up for another track... (see full post)

    I worked as a flagger at turn 6 for the 14 hour champ car race at Daytona a couple of weeks back. Was great fun, lots to do. I was a big fan of code 35 pink flag. I know Kohr prepped a s197 for that race. Few pictures I took from turn 6

    I would suggest tie wrapping the bundle back behind the shock. You can see it contacted it as well. Waiting to hear how the track alignment did it from dealer. Apparently the sensors and wiring are a weak point (see full post)

    I wouldn't be shocked to see that after a couple of laps on 1 set of tires that the outer edges were nearly bald as there's not much in the way of tread out there anyway.

    Is the duct tape going to be on the production car? (see full post)
  • Junkyard Dog
    Slicks do not qualify for production prototype times. Also, Michelin slick sidewalls do not look like that. But, man, I can't see any tread . . .I bet the DRS contributed a huge amount to the time, given the high speed stretches at... (see full post)
