So, what did you do today?

[Pranav]

Ran the WRL open track day at TWS yesterday. Lots of aborted laps for traffic, but the best complete lap I could manage was a 2:02. My last/best official NASA time was a 2:02 and I think I may have qualified at a 2:00 flat once. The car is better faster and fixed of issues since that last NASA race, just couldn't get it done yesterday. Still getting scared in turn 1.

Going to try one more time in late May if they really are going to close this summer.

Still getting scared in turn 1.

Trust me, there's a fence out there and It will slowly down
Maybe we will get at least one more chance to break that elusive 1:59:999999999999999999999999999999999

Chin Motorsports is having an event at TWS in June. Great group, well run,no wasted time 30min. sessions with a 60 min session at the end of the day. Best run events we have done. Usually 3 run groups all with point by passing.

I would go, but I am going to a wedding that weekend.

For now, Chin is the last event on the TWS calendar before they shutdown.

Too many damn weddings this year.

Need some advise on bolt extraction.

When my three link mount let go, the second diff mount bolt (was using one of the cover bolt holes) sheared off. I tried small RH drill bits with no luck. I think this is a metric grade 8.8 bolt so it's pretty tough.

I've ordered some 1/8" center drill bits and then some LH bits. I also have easy out's once I have the hole drilled.

Are there any other techniques other than:
1. Center drill
2. LH drill bit
3. Easy out

This happened Friday at Royal Purple Raceway when I was there.

I got mine back to a roller again. Time to find a frame shop I feelnI can trust.
Found the collapse pin sheared in the OEM column. I will need to repair that now as well.
Anyone have frame shop they can recommend in the DFW area?

Weld a nut to what's left and spin in right out. Works insanely well.

Heat the area around what's left or the bolt (called a Dutchman where I'm from) then use a small cold chisel to back the Dutchman out. Heat is your friend

The bolt broke off below the face of the diff, so there is no way I can weld anything unfortunately...

Craig,
I'll certainly use some heat on the housing before I try and drill/spin the bolt out.
