We loaded the car up last night and headed over to Moe's Mechanical to use his shop floor, seeing as the one at our shop looks like the
lunar surface (borrowed that pic from Google Images). We spent about 3 hours scaling and squaring, particularly the front end after the hits we took at Flamboro, in preparation for the
Lucas Oil sportsman Cup 'McColl Racing 100' September 5th at
Delaware Speedway.
Beauchamp Motorsports was kind enough to let us use their spring rater while ours is on the fritz and Kevin discovered some interesting information about the springs we have in the car that may explain the corner apex handling characteristics that we've been trying to improve. Cross your fingers.
The brake fluid has had a complete flush and some rotor and ducting issues have been addressed. We'll be converting to Silicon brake fluid over the winter to help eliminate future brake issues but we're confident we should have brakes for the entire race at Delaware with the maintenance we've done recently.
And finally, Brad has been a great help to Kevin at the shop, but I think we may be working him too hard, he seems a little tired. LOL!
See you at
Delaware!!!
