Last minute decision to join this race and my pace showed it. Still had an epic battle for P16 in the closing stages:

XSLR Season 8 race 16: Lernerville This track is a handful - there is no outer fence for over 1/2 the track so you can get really lost out there - it's downhill. Also exit of final turn you can run over the ridge and hit the wall. Should be harrowing lol https://www.youtube.com/live/kctGrlnZLRc?si=B...

Re: 2014 Cadillac ATS Premium 3.6 AWD - Mostmint #47

Three small projects: 1) daytime running lamp inside the passenger side headlight was out This is a long light that runs vertically inside the headlight. It's run by a single LED attached to a heat sync. Removing it requires detaching the front half of the inner fender. At first I thought the entire...

Re: How many cars have I had??

With the addition of the red Caddy I'm up to 47. Updated my list (page 1) and also made a few updates to 1/4 mile ETs there.

Re: 2017 Dodge Challenger SXT - Mostmint #45

78729 miles I've been driving it a little, but the front suspension and the loud exhaust have kept me to short drives. The suspension was not just rattling, but also seems to wobble a little back and forth. I attributed all this to bad struts. I decided to replace them - finished the install today. ...

Re: Problem#29-Hood alignment

Problem#29 Status: Open Description: Hood poorly aligned The gap on the passenger side is a lot narrower than the gap on the driver’s side. I did try to adjust it but quickly found out that I might be expecting too much in trying to get Jaguar gaps to be even. The hood hinges introduce all sorts of...

Re: 2014 Cadillac ATS Premium 3.6 AWD - Mostmint #47

A few updates: Made two trips to the dragstrip. The first night I laid down baseline numbers and the car ran 14.13. This was a little short of my expectations as the specs say this car is good for 13.8 stock. Pretty sure its a flex fuel engine and might need E85 to get that number. Anyway the car wa...

Re: 2014 Cadillac ATS 2.0T

Dealer said it was "Luxury" model. VIN search tells me it's "Standard" Cars.com had price range on this from $10k to $13k. They are probably a bit optimistic, so I'm starting at $6900 https://www.cars.com/vehicledetail/7681f3db-06b8-405e-a10d-373f5ec8aef0/ Tiresmoker discount ava...

Re: 1991 Jaguar XJ-S

For #8 you might consider replacing the ashtray with a little box - you could put coins in there or possibly have the phone set in there upright. On Rachel's Charger I put a box under the opening for the shifter in the center console (since car has column shift): IMG_9022.JPG You might have somethin...
