Another great NNJR event over a week ago. I put 1.7 on the rest of STU and paxed 8th again out of 130ish people. We had Yom and GJ Dixon battle it out for top pax and the competition was stiff. NNJR really gets competative the closer it comes to nationals time. The course was very sweepy and rewarded power. The way my car is set up right now, it sweeps great, but it does not slalom too well as it gets twitchy and hard to driving during back to back transitions. I'm ok with that and actually prefer sweeping course .
However, I did some work on this this past Saturday and wanted to drop down the rear bar from stiff to the middle setting and figured out why it might be extra twitchy lately. My home made endlinks are bent. The whiteline are **** and clunk, these I somehow bent. The bar does not have any bind in it but I guess with the 900lb rates and a full stiff bar, something has to let go. Essentially I have the Hotchkis endlinks coming this week. If these don't work, I simply give up lol.
The car is coming along great, and I wish I could attend Lincoln this year, but it's just not in the cards.
