Hi all,

So what are you all doing to your race cars at the end of the racing season to "heal" them and get them ready for next year?

What upgrades did you do this year that were good and bad ones?

Have any good advices??

Have any good stories??

Best regards,

Well I have to get into the suspension. I could not find anyone to make me custom bushings. I could not find what I needed off the shelf. So I bought a lathe and I am cutting my A-arm bushings and shock bushings from solid Delrin. I'm about half done. I have my shocks going out to be revalved and I am changing spring rates. My tire size is going up. I'll probably go slower! I know I should make one change at a time but it is such a time waste to keep taking things apart. Besides my suspension is 14 years old on crappy shocks and rubber bushings. I'll do this and be ready for the year starting at WSIR.
