Re: Showroom-Schlock Shootout 2012 - roll call!
pretty disappointing race for us. The first 2 1/2 hours of the race our car ran great, then our fuel pump started to fail, with it finally failing 3 hours after the start. We were able to get a pump from the local store. getting the old one out was a bit of a chore tho, after years of rust built up around the access hole on top of the fuel tank we had to bust every bolt to get in. Switched out the pump fairly easy, but reinstalling the fuel lines and conections became a problem as most were rotted and brittle. In the end we spent all Saturday and up until 1 Sunday trying to fix all our gas leaks and when we finally thought we had them all another would spring up ( Time for new lines from front to back). It ended up being our shortest race so far, but it was still a good weekend watching racing.
Congrats to all the winners!! Class C and Class B to LemonAid (chicago 3peat) and byte marks was good to see, both teams are clean racers and both really consistant.
We will be back at Road America, hopefully with all the kinks worked out.
