Second trip out to MBCA was a lot better. This was my first autocross without any real issues going into the event. (Other than the 40 degree rain) The car ran fine at the PCA event but was on the verge of overheating the whole time. The EFI definitely made a huge difference again here. Not even a hiccup and great response anytime I touched the throttle. Didn't see any sign of tires rubbing either. Didn't think it'd be 10 months before I made it back out here after that first shake-down run but I guess I can consider it money and time well spent now.
The morning rain gave me a chance to get a feel for the car on wet pavement too, so that was cool. It was a bit of a handful which was expected but not too bad actually. I didn't want to push it too hard and take out some timing gear or a fence so half my runs I wasn't able to really push it. My best time landed me between a 85 Corvette and 07 Mustang though, can't be mad at that.
The scoop has made it's return as well. I couldn't stand the ugly ass hole I made any longer. This time the base is epoxy'd to the hood as well which should take a lot of the strain off the epoxy holding the studs in. It didn't fly off while I was hauling it at 80mph down 81 and doesn't seem to be flexing/bouncing around nearly as much as before. Still going to make it one piece with some fiberglass at some point over the holidays with the old man so hopefully it hangs on until then.
