Downloading photos and this shot of the CRX on the skidpad caught my eye:

Scott had an alternator die near Coralville, IL.  Also apparently the accessory belt got chewed up.  Team Toyota helped retrieve a new belt, and Scott had a spare alternator with him (although Toyota had an multimeter to confirm the alternator had packed it up).

Greetings from Motorsports Park Hastings!


 


 

I pulled the last two boxes out of the trunk today and finally got a good look at the weather sealing around the rear sway bar:

Andy is driving first today, and managed a finish just outside of the top ten (so far). We'll see how the other cars finish.

Club Spec Mustang put in a solid showing, too, landing 38th overall.

Success! I picked up a little time vs. this morning's session, officially putting us ahead of Randy Pobst in a Camaro ZL1 laugh

We only have a 367 mile transit today, meaning we should be at our hotel by 5:42pm. So far so good!

Two sit-down dinners in a row! This is a One Lap record for us, as we're parked at the hotel before 6pm.

You guys are making this look like something simple, like Drag Week.  Is it just 4 days long also?

We're just bracing for the inevitable breakdown(s).

Oddly enough, when we arrived at our hotel we found Brian Peters and crew working on their Corvette. The problem? Broken A/C... Andy and I nearly fell over laughing.

Guess what road we have to drive the length of today? With the track sessions in between!

Good thing this CRX is the fuel-efficient HF model. 😎
