I thought you couldn't paint over your welds for the race cause they had to inspect them?

[Lake_v2]

By race day they would be rusted through lol..

They can check for undercutting and such when painted

Sexy.... what shop did you have build it?

[Lake_v2]

WOW!!! congratulations man!

what is your plan? ie: spare parts, pit crew, getting said parts & tools to
your rig were it may lie?

[Lake_v2]

Rough plan so far....cross fingers.... lol

We are looking for pit volunteers for qualifying on tuesday and min race thursday

Sharing pits with team pettycash/naxja but will need more people for sure.

Weight dpendent will keep a few spare parts on rig, spare fuel/tire at remote pit, then more of same at main pit.

No chasing allowed so if something is needed must make it to pits

It lives took for a quick spin around block....

Got to do a lot of adjustment on the coilovers , way too tall and feels like too much preload on springs, after setting them at the base 2" preload has 8" uptravel in front and 10" up in rear need to turn em down to 6 and 8 range.

[Lake_v2]

Started fiddling with the adjustments tonight a bit better ride height need to start adjusting the dual rates
