I regrettably have not been able to make the track this year. I got all ready for it in February by purchasing a hitch for my little S-10, beefed up the suspension for towing, replaced the clutch, and rebuilt the little 2.2L. Yes that is my tow truck. It had no problem towing a '97 grand am from DC to Cleveland at 17 MPG and still hit 75 mph with a tow dolly! I like my little S-10 truck, I'm proud of it. Insert jokes about it here.
Anyway, ran out of money for the car, I'm still staring at the ECU downgrade from 1.5 to v1, still staring at the little plates for posi that I have yet to install, and still looking back at the gear I need for re-flashing the chip I have yet to buy from Ben, sorry Ben.
I also now fear having to buy one of those really heavy car trailers, and with some additional mods for the suspension, i really don't want to tow bar her to the track. God I don't and/or can't afford a full size truck to tow with. I got nowhere to park one either!
I just thought I'd post so you guys knew I was still alive and my Achieva still lives.
...maybe next year.
