Was at a track day at Nelson Ledges and had some... issues....
Ah where were we?*f'k
Offseason I decided to get into iRacing. I got a G27, but the 270mm wheel felt very unnatural. 3D printer to the rescue!

Been a while hasn't it?

Nelson Ledges was a success. Got down into the 1:25s, I would knock this down to a low 23 at a later...

Wow, time flies.*
After Auto-X, I had a bit of an oopsie.*

Auto-X was a huge success!
A Mutual friend co-drove my car in TSM (Street tire SSM class special to NWOR) and laid down consistent 62s runs in my car. my best was a 65.007 but I punted 2 cones...

Ladies and Gentlemen I present to you: Fab Week.
I'm on spring break, and have committed myself to getting the car ready for track season.
Below is my to-do list. I have an alignment...
Should be fun. Time to get comfortable with my files...
I'm excited too. I think i'm the first to do this too.
I hope so. I only wasted 3 weeks of my life reading every suspension...

So I did.
NB B8...
I had a set of the pedal covers on my old car, didn't feel like paying $70 again for some so I ripped the design off CAD Grab and used the schools CNC to whip some up real quick. I put the bend in...
So as it turns out I ordered the wrong Bilsteins. I needed NB B8s, not NA B6s. I didn't realize until I tried to stack up the tophat bushings and the threaded shaft was no where near long enough.

Bryan you would be right as when I pulled the roll bar out and checked dimensions as given to me by Moti, it was perfectly fine. Good news for my wallet as I don't have to drop $1000 on a new BBFW...

I ordered this stuff from Summit on...
I'm excited to see your return too. You think you can get her finished by MATG next year?
No this was on 284 north. I've driven the 555 multiple times though and it's a blast.
