1 pointChet Wittel was talking about this video today. The car making the pass in the grass was piloted by John Williams. Chet said John's crew told him it was the last lap before it was the last lap.1 point

1 pointBlue - I offered a ride to a guy at one of the ZDayZ events and nearly went over the edge when I forgot to factor in the effect of his weight on the car's CG. He said he was 230 but it turned out he was more like 275. Pete, Brad and I did an early Saturday run after a very heavy night of drinking. Pete was green and Brad a nice shade of grey when they caught up to me on the other side.1 point

1 pointRegistered. Trailering the race car down from Boston unless it has issues, if so I'll bring the gnose. Building two engines this winter, an L28 for the race car from the left over parts from our Bob Sharp haul and an L24 for the gnose, plus Rebello owes me a 3.2L race engine. Hoping to get the Preston dog ring/dog leg 5-spd from the 1979 280ZX BSR back in service as well. Interchangeable tranny gears and a 4.38 diff with a Quaife should be a nice combo.1 point

Cleaned up the engine bay, mocked up an extension piece to add two O2 sensors, a cockpit fuel pressure, tranny oil temp and a dual EGT gauge. Cleaned and painted the diff carrier, Took out the accusump and flushed it and the lines. Started building adjustable pedal pads. Unpacked the R180 115mm Quaife (and looked at it warmly).1 point

1 pointI "re-chromed" my door panel strips today. I bought some chrome vinyl wrap off Ebay and cut some strips and applied it with a heat gun. It turned out really nice. Heres what they looked like before, typical chrome peeled off exposing blue plastic. Applying the chrome vinyl. Heated it up with a heat gun, tucked the edges with a bondo squeegee, then trimmed off the excess. Much better. Did the same with my rear dogleg panels.

1 pointHaving done it both ways, I prefer to drop the transmission from underneath with the car on tall jack stands. Without the tranny, it's much easier to remove the engine from the engine bay. You have to put a support under the back of the engine so it doesn't rotate and damage the engine mounts. Down-side, it's more work, and more time on your back under the car...1 point
