First event of the season "to do" list...

Who else has a running “to do” list in their head?

My first AutoXs are Feb. 26/27th and I have a track day in mid-March if I can get the $ together for it. So here’s what I need/want to get done in just under a month.

  • Install Wolfe 6-Point Cage
  • Install PA Racing Tubular Front K-Member
  • Install PA Racing Tubular Front Lower Control Arms (awaiting arival :rolleyes: )
  • Alignment (awaiting above installs)
  • Relocate Battery to the Spare-Tire Well
  • Power Steering Cooler
  • Motor Oil Cooler
  • Build Bracket for above Coolers

It’s not a whole lot but I’m waiting on most the parts and I’m working a whole lot. Not to mention I’m in the process of moving. As for the coolers I’m still debating on what to buy. I know I need much more than your average 2-pass cooler for the PS. I’m thinking of a larger transmision style cooler (probably something around the demensions of a 25-30k GVWR cooler) but I can’t decide if I want to get a unit w/ a built-in fan. It’d be nice since it’d cool the fluid while the car sits between runs (I leave the engine running w/ the hood popped). For the oil I don’t think I need to as big since it really doesn’t seem to get too hot or anything, but I still haven’t chosen one yet so I can’t start making brackets yet.

wheres your track day in march?

It’s at Laguna Seca. I used to live in da 'burgh but live in Santa Cruz, CA now. I still keep on the board to keep up w/ some old buddies and since it’s just damn entertaining sometimes. :wink: Honestly when it comes to racing sometimes I wish I still lived there. I drive 3 hrs for my AutoX events (although the course is huuuuuuuuuge for an AutoX, we’re talking mid 3rd in Fbodies = 80+ which is nice compared to the small events at North Park) and 3hrs to the drag strip (which I rarely go to anyway). When I was in PA I had like 3 strips within 1hr plus the flashlight drags and Zeilenople (sp???). And they were just finishing Beaver Run which looks amazing (I never got to use it though :frowning: ). Then again here I have Seca under an hour away, and Sears Point, Button Willow and Thunderhill all reasonably close. shrug Oh, but the Seca track day is like $279 but you do get 7 run sesions. EVERYTHING is expensive in Cali.
