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

Updates:

1) Fixing rear toe alignment took a couple tries. I was maxed out on the LR adjustment and still not in spec. Eventually I decided to do a four wheel alignment. That was tricky at first since the front tracking width is more narrow that the rear. Once I knew the difference I was able to ...

CCiS 2025 Season Race 6 Mosport Race Report

Qualified P22 of 33

Lost about 11 seconds on lap 1 after getting punted on exit of Moss Corner and that cost me a few spots. In the practice race I tried to pit as the field came to green but there were no lap 1 incidents, and I was not at all sure I ...

“service stability control” fix

I really thought this was going to be something with a wheel sensor, but instead the scan tool gave me a C0042-62 – which is the ECU sensing pressure in the brake system from the ABS but not getting a signal from the brake switch.

XSLR Season 9 Race 11 Daytona Race Report

For this race the plan was to focus on getting some good points. I spent some time practicing racing against AI to get better in traffic. I also specifically practiced pit entrance, as I was having a lot of trouble getting the car slowed up without losing ...

I was more thinking find/make something with the shift pattern and replace that red part with it. You have it engraved on a piece of stainless steel perhaps.

Re: 1963 Corvette

Glad it got back together in time and you made the show. I expect there will be more tough moments dealing with the loss of your Dad, but if there is a silver lining its that those times do tell you how much he meant to you.

CCiS 2025 Season Race 5 Watkins Glen Race Report

This one produced a really good result.

I've spent a lot of time in this car and on this track so I didn't prep too much. I did the practice race and ended up pitting after about 4 laps as I felt the guys ahead were holding me up. This gave me the ...

Re: Tire Changing Machine

I did a couple tire changes on 18" wheels and the machine did not damage the wheels. I put in a bit of extra effort to make sure the wheel was well tightened onto the machine. It dismounted both beads pretty well, and mounted the back bead easily. The machine does struggle with the top bead though ...

Re: Tire Changing Machine

Here is what will be my first attempt at more air pressure

It's a DeWalt DXCM271 - made in 2021. Got it cheap since it would only build limited air pressure. New this is around $700 I paid $90. I was hoping pressure regulator was the problem, but turns out it has a bad seal in the compressor part ...
