Ready to roll all of the NON-ITRs at this year's ITR EXPO?

[tartje]

Volvo wagon can ram fuck out of you, laugh as you burst into a ball of flame, think about the time taken later on the polish out the scratch and carry on

[get RIGHT]

Oh I think I can hang but unfortunately, I will be in Intermediate more than likely. Wes is gonna co drive mine again and it worked out really well last year with him in advanced and me in intermediate, assuming the sched stays the same.

[Bbasso]

Maybe i'll be able to go out in other run groups like past years. Volvo= trouble- I know, but if the coupe was coming I'd actually be nervous

[attentionwhore]

Being my first time on track, I will hold off the smack talking until E9

[Dave_B]

Volvo's = fun to roll... S60R (or whatever the 60 sport model is) here I come.

[Willard]

but if the coupe was coming I'd actually be nervous

on that note.... the wagon may be used for other things... and the coupe might have to stretch her legs on track for the first time in a while (we-todd #1?).

list to do:
-buy 2 new front shocks
-have the rear shocks rebuilt (stiffer)
-source a set of track pads for the rear (install then with a set of spare rotors and remove splash shields)
-have my spare set of 205/50 azeins mounted up on a spare set of alloys. (2 are 15x7 and 2 are 15x6)
-flush all fluids
-remove the rear muffler and install the 3" turndown
-make brackets and install the rx7 front 4-p0t calipers with 740 rotors (with track pads and splash shield removal)
-check the alignment
-lube the poly-bushings
-replace the rear floor pans
-turn boost up to 14psi vs. 10psi
-bring a case of oil
?

330,000 miles (531,083 kms) and counting.

If I get "Betty" ready for E8... then I know she will be "ready to rock" at LMS when CarGuys visits later in the year.

you getting a dino t00n and an alignments?

last minute things = we shall see.
I am sure it will be hard ($ wise) to get all of the bits together in time.

The wagon comes first... then the 242ti gets the rest of the treatment.

[Bbasso]

I'd like to get it taken care of, we'll see how spring time treats me

as for the volvos, getting the wagon good and safe comes first and will also give you a green light to work on the 242ti

[coolhandluke]

I'l be one of the non-R's getting rolled again

However, I'm hoping to arrive with 2 events under my belt compared to zero last year. (E7, We-Todd3) My nerves should be much better this year.

the 242ti is on the back burner for now (wreck). the wagon will be given the full treatment and i hope to have her ready for track use at E8.
-heater core replacement (this weekend)
-brake pads (with splash shields removed)
-front shocks
-test pipe
-b00st level increase
-intake (filter on a stick with a heat shield)
-a set of 'seasoned' aziens mounted on spare wheels
-tint

[Erik95LS]

The R does not have a chance of making to this year's Expo

Really sorry to hear, but I'll still roll j0000!

Yeah.. Take advantage while you can, I'll be back bigger and stronger at the next event with the R.

We did have two people in the car, which should have negated our power advantage, and were on street tires while he was on R-comps, but I guess it just wasn't quite enough...

[Willard]

the wagon might not make it if the Civic is ready in time.

lots of work to do this Wed. night.... updates to follow.
