After a long thrash to get the injection rewired from the fire the PO had, getting all the newly painted bodywork remounted, and driving to Greenville to find E85 we had to give up. Fired the car and ran good for a few minutes and then shut off. E85 that had been in the fuel system for the last 2 years of sitting around had plugged all the filters in the cel. Late last night we had the entire fuel system all over the shop and just ran out of time to get it together for today. Back to cleaning and ordering a new fuel cell.

I admire your effort to get there, Steve. Not the case for most of us. I hope you get it all up and running... |

Hi Jack. Really just wanted to come out and see everyone and see what shape the car is in before we tear it down. Plan is to be at the last night series now, but will be a little tight to really check it out. Got a lot done yesterday. Flushed the entire system and put the injectors on the machine to re flow them. Should have it running soon.

Thanks for letting me take the Torque Monster out for a spin (pun intended) Mike! Somebody has to maintain the "spin cycle" moniker while Travis Ball is away!
That was my first time driving a car with coilovers, tune, and 255 wide rubber. Once I came to grips with the fact that I'm not a pro driver, I finally managed to put down a decent, clean run. Thanks to you and Steven for all tips, I definitely learned a lot this past weekend.

I really like the course from this event. It flowed well, had lots of speed, and cones weren't a big issue for me.
Here's my fastest run, a 68.8xx. I believe I get the first cone on course on this run though, lol.
During the fun runs I had Cassino ride with me to tell me how bad I was. With him in the car I picked put a little over a whole second, save the last cone on course I smacked really hard. So nevertheless I left A LOT of time out there.
I plan to make as many CCR events as I can next season. Fun group of people to race with.
