    #67 is alive. All buttoned up. Ended up putting a new exhaust valve and guide in #4.

    Replaced the passenger rotor ring after 4 full seasons. Also found a severely bent wheel. Not sure when that happened, but it's been replaced with a spare. Have a new set of 5/32's on the car.

    Not sure on the ABS, so I have dual dyno stickers and will just dump ballast if I can't get it to work. For my power level, it works out right at 160lbs. I'm carrying 200, so no worries here. Not sure if the bent wheel caused the system to go wacho or what.

    I'm going to have to wire in a 2011-2012 PCM to act as a slave "storage" unit for the HCU to dump codes to. Connecting the scanner to the existing setup netted nothing.

    All in all, I think it's ready. I'm excited!!

    Marshall, what problems are you having with the ABS? I too was having issues the two times I have had it on track where it would sometimes lock, and sometimes wouldn't. I figured it was the fact I was powering the unit through a combo of the factory CCRM and non-factory power. that is all changed now that the entire car is custom wiring and that I also have a 2011 PCM in the car!

    PM your findings or concerns and maybe we can compare notes on what is working and what isn't.
    Ah, fugg it.

    It all depends on how you define fit. From experience I know the front straight is at least 4 cars wide.

    heh true - I was thinking if there would be enough length of track between S/F and the last corner to do 15 rows of cars...

    I think we had 34 one year, and the last 4-6 cars were bending around the corner.

    We could always do a split standing start if we get some more entries.

    AI drivers,
    I've been informed that at this crossover event, there may be a central region AI driver that races with hand controls and standing starts would be really difficult. It's not a done deal, but "we" as a collective group need to be understanding of drivers that may need special concessions...

    Just start thinking of maybe a very slow rolling green for AI and then CMC form up and do a quick standing start???

    Anyway, we'll know more at the event, so AI guys, be prepared for either "style" of start.

    Just a logistics suggestion... Would it be possible to throw the green for AI from the corner station after turn one but before the crest of the hill? That would give CMC that little extra time to grid up.
