awesome day even though it was a pain the arse. my belt tensioner is weak so my belt flew off and made me over heat. put it back on and still it was idling at 220 degrees. normal is 180. so i did a quick and dirty fix by removing the t-stat and that fixed the issue.
finished that just in time to do the timed trials and got first place and fastest street car of the day:

i missed overall FTD (race car porsche 2200 lbs, goodyear slicks) by .5 seconds. The car has that in it but i needed a little more practice and more balls.
