It was a lot hotter on the way to/from the event!

Actually, it's hard to say how the A/C removal effected the car. I figured out that my rear struts are blown out (zero rebound damping ), which explains why the car was so inconsistant, and wouldn't turn at all when the track got slick Sat afternoon. Sunday, when the track was cooler, I found some grip, but still couldn't perform to the Roy/Khamis level (though Mike got me by less than 0.05 seconds ).

I've got new suspension on the way, hopefully to be in the car by the trials this weekend, and Cory's mounting up some RA1's for me by then as well. It should be a totally new animal this weekend. I just hope I can figure out how to drive it!
