I had fun with turn 8. The vette I played around with didn't wanna play there so I knew I had a chance, let him pass on the straight, let trolling commence. talked to him after, he wasn't a happy frenchman that his new car wasn't good enough LOL.

That sucks. Worse than my last trip home from the track, which was driving home with no brake pads left. The grinding noise, just love it!

I've been resisting putting in a rear cage, seats and harnesses into this car...my Hans is pointless with out them... May have to reconsider before I take the subie to the track...

And I was just at TC yesterday too...maybe it's a sign...

Are you going to get it rewelded? If you are, let me know if you find a good welder. I'm looking to fix my cracked SS headers as well.

Or if there's a welder on here that's willing to take a look at it, let me know too!

I'm sure he's got it covered by now. I need to get off my **** and swap out mine. Then I will have a classic Gruppe-Sex unit up for grabs.

Picked up an EL header from Travis yesterday afternoon, came back to the shop and threw it on along with removing the oil cooler for the time being since the sandwich adapter hits the header. Also rotated the tires. Someone came through and I traded to a Cobb turboback for a bit of lower noise. Going back to Travis for an update within the next month.
