Topic: The time draws near

BABE rally departs Philly on monday.

This preparation photo would probably be more convincing if the door was actually attached to the car at this point.

FANTASTIC!  If anyone, in any of the races, tries to steal the #69, the entire forum population needs to declare war.

I'm just sayin'

Then again, you've probably already secured #69 all around.  'Cause you're a planning kinda guy.

Indeed I already have it locked up for BABE and Lemons, still need to secure it for GRM.

Can't wait to see the warburg!

Pendejo - There is no such thing as a racing budget and if you can't afford to set it on fire and watch it burn while drinking a beer then don't race it.

On BABE or in Lemons?

I've got a truck bed full of engines and transmissions that say this thing is gonna cross the finish line at Lemons.

Re: The time draws near

Made it about 10 miles after the post when the oil pump dumped its seals sad  Limped it home.

If I had had more than 3 hours sleep in the last 2 days I could have probably got the spare motor back in by now and made it to the Va stop by morning but I'm spent and my team didnt want to risk our only other motor and possibly have nothing for Lemons.  Got the rest of the week to do the swap and fix up the old motor to be a spare.

Was a heck of alot of fun when it was going though, cruised 80 on the highway without complaint.

Re: The time draws near

Did you harm the motor?  Do you need replacement seals for the oil pump?  What do need?

Re: The time draws near

I've got spare motors and I think I can fix this one. No problem for Lemons. Just 10 hours behind the BABE pack and not enough energy left to fix then drive solo to catch them.

Sorry, news was in my other thread.  Warburg runs fine.  Made it home from BABE in one piece.  We're leaving for summit late tonite.  Car needs alot of "transformation" work, not sure when or how its all going to get done but if anyone has some free time friday we might need a hand.
