    You got to love 3D printing as a prototyping technique. 3D printing to CNC machined part in 7 days. Graham

    Check your drain plug. It the event at Gingerman MI, I guys turned up with a 5k mile old BMW M2, Just had a fresh oil change before his first ever track day. You can guess how this ended, so check your drain plugs. Graham

    I don't think this has been mentioned this year for the newbie drivers. NJMP requires arm restraints in open top cars. Like this https://www.simpsonraceproducts.com/products/arm_restraints/parts/ARADU Graham

    Well I did a warm up event this weekend at Gingerman Michigan, hopefully I left all my bad luck there. I broke a throttle cable, the nipple came off. My 3d printed throttle pulley decided to turn onto a wet noodle. The main ECU fuse blew and a tire exploded on the trailer on the way home. Getting towed in sucks, getting towed in twice really sucks:) But still a fun weekend with some friends from Chicago. See you in a couple of weeks Graham

    I put huge injectors in the K24 at my last upgrade, just in case I ever try E85, 1000cc injectors of I remember correctly. For E85 you really need to upgrade the entire fuel system as it's very corrosive. Even then I would flush it out of the system before any long term storage. Graham

    Superglue the cork gasket to the pan, just a few dabs in the right locations and the gasket will stay in place nicely. Graham

    What free play do you have, you always want some. If you have too much free play you clutch will not be fully disengaging. I would turn the adjuster out until all the free play is gone then turn it in one full turn. Give that a try and see of your clutch works. Graham

    ARP head bolt sets come with a packet of lube and detailed instructions on how and were to use it. So I think the answer is yes it makes a difference. Graham

    You should bring one to the September 6/7 HPDE event at NJMP. I am sure there would be lots of interest. Graham

    MK kits coming to the USA, I wonder were there going?

    I use Race quip. Do not like the color but like the belts. Got them from Pegasus, they were very helpful. Sent the first pair back because the adjusters were below the side of the seat

    See if you can find an old time motorcycle shop in your area. Most will have a kit to make cables. Graham

    Swapping to a 6 speed made a huge difference, went from a 2 speed car 3/4 to a three steed car 3/4/5. Well worth the effort if you can work it out. Graham

    Croc your right. I was thinking of the 1.6-1.8 NA/NB Miata trans, you can swap from the 5 to the 6 speed very easily. Sorry for the confusion. Graham

    I went to the WSBK event in 2023, and stayed in Lisbon. Loved the track, would love to do a track day there. Lisbon is a cool town, great scenery and amazing food. I will return. I swapped from a Miata 5 speed to a 6 speed, huge difference. You have to pull your box so just slide in a 6 speed, everything should fit including the drive shaft. Graham

    Found this in the back of Grassroots Motorsports. https://fastcraft.biz/ They are prepping VortX 7's for NASA Super Touring classes. Might check them out the next time I am in Ohio. Graham
