    I also forgot to mention I ended up going with the “performance” 3 clutch setup instead of the “street” 3 clutch setup. I was worried about too much lockup (similar preload as a 2 clutch, but now with 3 discs) inducing understeer on turn-in

      This may seem dumb but I finally found a usb charger that doesn’t look like a giant tumor with 6 bright LEDs sticking 8” off the console.

            I bought the exact same one a couple years ago for the same reasons. Still charges things. Since it only has one job, that's a win in my book.

                  A dab of oversteer here and there. Did anyone spin?

                    What rear end are you running?

                    How close were you to using all of second on some of the straights?

                      Yes there were lots of spins and 6 or 7 cars broke on course.  “self tech” due to the pandemic seems to be more hazardous for your health

                        3.25 with a ZF trans. Probably had another 700rpm to go before limiter is my guess

                            Wow I'm surprised they did a self-tech. That seems sketchy...

                              Was nice seeing/talking to you there! Great driving as always. I have some work to do...

                              Do you know if there will be photos from this RA event?

                                Probably, I think Austin was at the event.

                                        Started pulling the diff, which turned into pulling the axles because I observed some weathered boots, flung grease and the axle stub bolts were coated in watery axle grease. Luckily I have enough GKN/EMPI repair kits to replace/repack every boot. It’ll be nice to check this off the list, car is getting closer to 99.9% “done”.
