Default Couple of pics from Thunder Racing event
Just thought I would post a few pics of Sunday. The crew at Thunder Racing are really nice folks. The track was nice as well and was prepped pretty good. We spent Saturday all day at the shop while Brian "Madman" tweaked the LSX coupe. If any of you ever get to go up there sometime Brian will have you laughing your *** off. Thanks again guys we will see you in a week or two.

The car broke a weld on the rear end and was dumping gear oil on the tires. We thought we had it fixed but it still leaked.

Its apart now and being repaired AND some other nice changes.

There is always "keyboard gurus" who think they know what is going on and try to give advice from their vast lack of knowledge .
