Pre-Cali Testing

[Kevin Dunn]

After having problems before VIR, and insufficient time before MIS we finally finished a couple sets of rather decent endurance races with great fuel mileage to boot!

No broken pull-rods, no oil leaks and no curbs that have ended in fires. I'm not bragging here, just posting up because I know a lot of you have had the same thing frustrations with getting some "good" testing on your cars.

How's everyone else doing that is going to Cali next week?! Personally, I'm excited (never flown on a plane, let alone to Cali).

Glad to hear it's going well!

Things are good here, as the temperatures started to raise (and we also found some more power) we noticed our cooling system wasn't quite up to snuff.

So 500 bucks later we have a shiny new cooling system and the car is headed to the chassis dyno for some last minute tuning with the new intake.

The car has probably 10 endurances or so on it now. We may or may not squeeze some testing in this weekend depending on rain, but then it's packing up the Uhaul and headed out West.

I think I've seen this movie before...

Luckily, this one had some pretty nice denoument through deus ex machina. In the form of a giant aluminum radiator.
