I've actually been very close to him on several events. I've even beaten him on a few. If the car is running right and I get some new tires I think we got a chance even if he's on race tires!

Well, I'm down! I say the more the merrier. Competition is always welcomed.

Again, "Challenge Accepted".

Also forgot to mention that Brad may join us in SM as well. He says the GTR is eligible for SM, go figure. But he was going to do it on street tires to give us a chance.
Now that one I'd welcome with a door mat even.

C'mon man, join the fun. No need be perfect. I probably won't be completed with my mods for SM until next season, if I'm lucky. And seems like a bunch of us are all on new set-ups so.....bring it on!

I have a feeling my car is still going to be acting up, I'll be sitting there rolling around corners. lol. Come drive my car one of these days, you'll be surprised how much of a mess it's in.

Your version of "complete" is my dream.

Where my "ready" is the your minimum to drive it on the street.

I might jump in here and there but don't put any weight to that yet.

Loosen all the bushing bolts and re-torque them. I know you he-man tightened all of them.

Can't blame me for trying. Heck, mine is still a DD. Only changed 2 bushings. Lots more to go. Haven't even started on the motor yet.

Loosened, greased and torqued them to spec. I think the torque specs are tighter than I had them!
