No, what really sucks is we thought we trouble shot it down to a bad pulley in the FEAD, and we were, wrong..... I have severe rod knock now, and I'll be pulling the motor most likely next week. we'll pull some stuff apart to see if we can see and fix the problem, but most likely I'm just going to pull the motor. I'm extremely frustrated with the car right now and very close to being done with it, after nearly 15 years. So either way, I certainly won't be making any events the rest of the year. In fact, I fully plan on letting the car sit for QUITE a while. I really just need to find a garage....
OR.....it was coincidental and there is a FEAD pulley noise and now there's another engine noise. You drove it over 90 minutes plus parade laps around the road course before it got bad enough on your first lap at 50% pace when it got a lot worse and shut it down.

Sorry man. If ur frustrated with the car. Park it and step back for a while. Then come back to it fresh when the itch to run it again returns. After 15 yrs, dont do anything hasty...

Any more of these coming up? Is there a schedule somewhere? I'd like to try and make it at least once this season, but I'm still working on trying to get state inspection stickers in between breaking little dumb stuff every time I go to the track. :rolleyes: :rolleyes:
Yes sir. I have them scheduled into October.

C&C is on the fence for 2moro, as the new location (that I was against) is a grass field. Stay tuned to the event page to see if its still on or not.
