Tag: DBL APEX
Mileage: 5900! miles (03-20-97)
The car is driven mostly on weekends and at night.
Check out the Grassroots Motorsports ariticle on MR2's. You'll spot this
car in the pictures.
Modifications:
* Autopower full race cage with side bars.
* Fire extinguisher
* TRW 5 point harness
(Update-Now replaced with Simpson Camlocks + Sternum protector.
Those Simpsons are pricey, but I prefer the camlocks to the
latch links. Other camlocks were unavailable with the Sternum
belt.)
* Drivers side window net
* AC compressor, evaporator and condenser removed. (Sitting in a box in the
garage.)
* Note: No engine modifications done since SCCA doesn't allow any for the
showroom stock class. Still using stock brakes too. I'll be
trying some Hawk Pads soon.
Fluids: * Valvoline 10W-30 full synthetic oil * Redline water wetter * Redline Transmission Fluid. (Update-Started using Valvoline Synthetic Gear Oil, since it was easier to get locally. Cheaper too!)
Tires: * BFG R1's 205/55-15 front (28psi) * BFG R1's 225/55-15 rear (32psi) Rims: * Stock alloys 15x6 front, lugnuts torqued to 80 lbs-ft for track use. * Stock alloys 15x7 rear, lugnuts torqued to 80 lbs-ft for track use.
Audio: Stock digital AM/FM cassette. Very relaxing listening to music while sitting on the grid before my track time. (Update--Will be removing this for an upcoming race.)
