what are you doing to your race car????

Postby gto on Tue Jan 15, 2013 8:05 pm

started by ordering parts for andrew car this week. took the motor off to freashen it up. remember don't wait till the last minute to work on your cars, check your hoses, trans lines. don't want to oil the track down. just remember you leak on the track no one races while we clean up the mess. Dr Goss says check your car over good before you bring them to the track. let have a good clean season. :nice: :ubergeek:

Man it's weird that you mention the thing about tranny lines....I just replaced mine with some thin clear plastic hose so I can see the fluid circulating :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Took the block to the shop to have it honed. Block is toast. I have an 010 standard block so I'll take it, have it bored & go from there. Going to go with a bigger bump stick. Hope to be a little faster this year.

Hopefully a new adjustable torque arm, some new exhaust, and a professional tune. Hopefully I can get the inconsistency issue fixed. Sucks having a car run three or four great passes just drop drop two tenths all of the sudden.
