5) I ran most of the passes in sport mode. When they switched to 1/8 mile passes, I let off at the end and the car would not upshift. I switched back to touring mode after this happened and it went back to normal on the return road. Unclear if this is normal behavior I suspect this is completely nor...

Last night coming home from the track was the first time I've driven at night with the new headlights. They are definitely an improvement, and since it was fresh in my head, and the car was in my garage, I took the chance to adjust them a little better. The right light was pointed forward correctly ...

My Vette doesn't have traction control so that's a non-issue for me.

I also forgot to mention, that despite the rather bad air quality, there was a decent tailwind, and I was able to get my best ET in time runs at 13.66 and my best 60' at 1.80. The car is dead consistent with even decent traction. Three time runs at 1/4 mile were 13.68, 13.68, and 13.66. This is the ...

For those who weren't there last night, the new track management has a lot of work to do to get organized. Hopefully they can get it figured out over the next few weeks. There was just a lot of confusion and lack of preparation on their part. It was frustrating. That being said, it was fun hanging o...

Those are all worthwhile upgrades to make that a daily driver. Especially the skid plate. That thing is LOW.

Alex, have YOU driven it yet?

Wednesday, Wednesday, WEDNESDAY!!! Tonight is finally the first Wed night of the season at Kuhnle Motorsports Park. In a off season full of drama, at least they're open and the gates open at 5. I don't know much about the rest of the evening schedule or classifications, but I'll be there with bells ...

I agree. Since it's there, I figured it couldn't hurt to have the option. Probably just going to put the switch under the hood.

Lately any ride I took since I put the new tires/wheels on the thing has been pulling to the right pretty badly. I tried some eyeball tie rod adjustments to no avail, so I got out my trusty Factory Shop Manual and did the specified adjustments and the thing still pulled a lot to the right. Scratchin...

We got the new hose installed last weekend and put it all back together. After a trip around the block we checked and there was oil coming from what looked like both fittings where they threaded into the cooler. So yesterday we set out to figure out the problem. We took all the shrouding back off an...

Those seats do look amazing.

I'm sure that big steering wheel was in there to help steer the car with no power steering. Your ingress / egress ease will be a tradeoff with harder steering at slow speeds. Looks like a video game wheel!

Are going to wrap that exhaust pipe between the block and radiator? Seems like a big source for underhood heat. That fan and radiator combo should be quite a bit better.
