This is the time of year to tour the New Jersey tied up in Philadelphia Harbor. Some time ago, I had the chance and the 5 of us essentially were the only people on the ship. I recall the armoured tower you describe. We got to meet the captain, and got the whole show.

Ding,Ding,Ding,Ding!

Aha- that works for me. Never been in a class that has restrictors. That would be one wheezy K motor then.......

Just curious how they can detune an open exhaust Type R K2.0 to 160 hp? Even my wife’s ‘02 Si has 160 hp with cats and full exhaust......

I still have a ‘07 Si, liked it. Heads up speed, without the gizmo....

A picture I took in 2011 at Mid Ohio of Justin getting set up for his car. it’s the weekend he got hurt running wide of turn 1. Just another fellow racing a car. Take care Justin, and care to all that you have known...

Agreed on the flat spotting. Sidewall looked fine till it landed again, and the video showed he did lock it up during the spin.

Here is the google earth location and view of the what appears to be the storage location. What is green and goes boom?

I’ve used Mobil 1 for 25 years in race cars. Never had a oil related failure. Never seen bearing or bore wear at rebuilds. I change my race oil once a year for 5 sprint races. (integra type r).

Oh I think the Alfa Romeo Indy effort sounds like a candidate. 20th fastest, started 19th finished 15th first Indy 500 race, never podium’d. Soooo pretty, broke a lot of hearts though.....

He’s moving on to bigger things. I see one of these in Bo’s future...

Just read Shunkworks, by Ben Rich. Great insights to the development of U2, RS (oops I mean SR71) and stealth fighter. It’s 20 years old but worth the read. Thanks to Tyler whom recommended it.

Ooh, bad answer. I am amazed that the compressor ran at all. I would have expected the unit’s high pressure switch to trip disabling the compressor seconds after it turned on. By the way, jumper out the high pressure switch and you will split the condenser. Don’t ask me how I know.

You have to get the air out for the system for it to work.

What is the story of the door piller? It appears there is peeling paint and rust? Not original carpet, could this be a flood recovery car?
