Preventative maintenance
I have been doing more and more successive DE events this season. Are there any critical preventative maintenance items I should be attending to such as changing differential fluid. I am religious about changing the oil after 2 DE's, etc. What about the turbos, clutch, etc.
Thanks

I think you may get better response on the Turbo and DE forums. I would imagine differential fluid, transmission fluid, brake fluid, engine oil (you already mentioned), air filter, cleaning out the melted tire craps/debris on the radiators and intercoolers?
Not aware of any PM on the turbos and clutch.

If your clutch is like ours and shares fluid with the brake system, bleeding the clutch as part of flushing brake fluid is important. As Ahsai mentioned, asking in a turbo-centric forum will yield more useful info - we're just normally-aspirated philistines here.

Biggest thing is a high temp fresh brake fluid......bleed brake and your clutch. I would do the clutch once a year opposed to brakes every DE and sometimes after. Fresh brake fluid will save your piston seals in your calipers. You have the oil handled.
