Default Ready to rock!

Im ready for the track, fresh oil, new belts, suspension on and aligned, new brakes and fluid. Also got some euro fogs, deleted my headlights and installed a new Sparco Evo seat. I even ordered a new neck brace to go with my driving suit! Cant wait for Mid Ohio w/ the OVR PCA in about three weeks. Anyone else going to this, or anyone else excited about upcoming track events. It seems like its been much too long for me.

Better protect those nice new euro lights - they don't last long at the track!!

Dan- What specs did you end up going with on your alignment? Can you scan the print out if you have one.

didnt get a print of the alignment specs but they are 2.5degrees all around.

-since i deleted my headlights i wired the headlight circuit into the euro center lights and replaced the bulbs w/ some sylania super bright silverstar bulbs- need two more for the fogs.

-yeah Chris i may look into that clear protectant stuff that i can put over the lenses- i'll be rocking the tape for now i guess.

Yeah, you gotta watch out for those new mustangs...the indiana state troopers are sneaky with those things. When I was working over the summer I would see them with 3-5 people pulled over between Indy/Martinsville on 37..morning and afternoon.
