Re: End of season is soon, any plans for next season?
I'm hoping to just run more vents. Not sure what class... if everyone OK with it (I'm a bit light ~40lbs) Pro SSM... if there are any concerns STM it is. I also have a computer update that will boost mid torque and a bit more HP I plan on installing over the winter. More importantly I hope to have more time to be more a part of the leadership of the club... at least come to the monthly meetings

Re: End of season is soon, any plans for next season?
I've been looking at a few new suspension options and mine are basically sold if I decide to go another route.
Needs to be tuned.
It'll need new tires early in the season.
I don't see any modifications otherwise for a while. I'd like a seat and harness but they aren't on the top of my priorities.

continue driving the Z06 as much as possible, probably line up a co-drive for locals since Berry can't make many and I've lost my touch with the Miata.
Putting fender flares, 18x10.5 ARC-8's and 275 Hoo-hoo's on the M3 for TTB with NASA next year - hoping to run the full south-east schedule minus daytona and roebling road.

Also, this. With school coming to an end I'll have more time for this.EliseAutoXr wrote:b... at least come to the monthly meetings.

On a serious note, the Vette is going to have the shocks pulled off and rebuilt after 10 years of service, also the 10 year old poly bushings will be replaced with Delrin (sp?). Also, a touch of weight loss and splash of more power. Just how much depends on what this MTG collection nets me.

Nope, I'll most likely stick with Rivals for now.90civichb wrote:Are you going to try and pick up some of the pro dudes 140s?Josh_McCRX wrote: It'll need new tires early in the season.

Re: End of season is soon, any plans for next season?
Things that could be on the agenda for next year.
15x9 Advanti Storms/225 RS3's.
Less weight. 2200 lbs or less would be nice. Remove soft top and associated carpet, new seats/harness, replace SS IC piping with aluminum, maybe get a tubular exhaust manifold built.
Proportioning valve and grippier pads.
Get the thing tuned. 220-230 whp would be plenty and pretty realistic.

Re: End of season is soon, any plans for next season?
Well.....
I've been out of the loop for about a month now....
I'm working allot and have allot going on issue of that, so it's been so crazy I drive the Z06 for the first time in almost 2 months last night. Plans to to the car apart have stalled as I don't have time and I'm reluctant to pay someone to do all the work. I at least want to help.
That said... if things keep up it might be going up to Danny popp after the holidays and just let him fix it and set the car up.
No plans for national events next year unless I score a co drive and it's on the cheap.
2016 I'll be back on the national stuff big time. We're buying a trailer over the off season NEXT year

putting in a new drivers side axle today … hopping that will get rid of the noise heard in my videos …

Re: End of season is soon, any plans for next season?
If an axle doesn't fix your problem look into your bushings. I had a nasty clunking coming from my rear diff that I thought was an axle on the way out but ended up being soft rear diff bushings. Boy what a difference the poly bushings made.
Re: End of season is soon, any plans for next season?
well the axle moves when I grab it and shake it … the passenger side doesn't ……
lower ball joints need replacing also … at the same time I'll get rid of the "illegal" Ingalls UCA's
may or may not make it next weekend … the weather is going to be fighting me on this … (working outside on gravel driveway … not fun)
