May need a backup for Verona..maybe...

Post by SierraFox »

I hate to do this but some necassary repairs at the last minute may cost me the event.

I finally got the car running on Sunday due to having to wait on a few parts from Honda. However I got them in and the car is running great except for a problem with the IACV. Apprently it decided to die while the car sat for a couple of months.

Not to mention the car failed state inspection today for a broken drivers side door handle. I was able to pass for my wheel bearing since I had some time to fix it while at work. So that cost me a few buchs for parts.

Needless to say the car runs but I want it to be reliable and unfortunatly I may not have it broken it properly by Saturday morning. Even though the trop up to Verona may pass the 500 miles period I want to give it a thorough inspection before some full throttle workouts.

Currently at this time it is a 50/50 chance of me being able to attend. So I will need a backup Workers Steward should all else fail.

Not really a way to start the season as WS. :(

Shawn if you don't show Sunday, I can cover the WS position. I won't be at the T&T event Saturday due to a family event we're attending.
