I folded up the RLCA pretty good to the point where the mounting points off the subframe went all bucky chan…

The RUCA and traction arms are fine, the toe arm has a slight bend in it… pretty good for 3 years on her. I guess it’s a good thing i have more of that stuff.

I have a whole other subframe lined up in the next couple weeks. theoretically i could get the car back up and driivng by november, but i dont feel like it. i think i’ll take it easy and do all of the little things i wanted to do over the winter.

i’ll be redoing the whole exhuast, rebuilding the diff (ATS 1.5 way) and redoing a couple things under the hood… ie. recirc’ing the BOV to prevent oil from getting out and setting fire to things.

i redid my catch can and had no issues on the track with oil but i was only out there for 5-6 drift runs.

i went off after the entry of turn one… it really wasnt that bad, but i spun around on the grass and as i rotated back onto the track my rear passenger wheel hit the brunt side of the chicane and popped me airborne… that is the result.

i think the worst part of this is that i could have taken the street class…

last time i had all kinds of issues and still ran a 1.28 there… the winner had a 1.25 this time and i know i could have cut 3-4 seconds off my time.

i also found that my Potenza S-03’s are chunking quite seriously in some places… i’ll likely be going to Dunlop Direzza StarSpec in 245/40 up front and 275/40 in the rear… of an RT615… whichever has the right sizes.

dude, when the rear of the car has 15 degrees of positive camber… it would take some block of wood to cure that in a half hour.
