Car is back on the ground with rebuilt shocks. Got to watch the shocks on the dyno. Excellent repeatability and zero crosstalk. Almost forgot why I went with these shocks in the first place. Turns out the upper seal was spinning and letting air in the shock. Rebuilt at no cost with labor-free service at Nationals . The Koni guys mentioned it generally happens from extreme side-loading (binding/ crashes) or using an impact wrench on the top nut. Just have to double check the alignment and pick up some race fuel. I've got a feeling we're gonna be pushing the engine pretty hard in a couple days :P

Lots of work to do because the past couple nights have been spent pretty laid back:


Yes, that's my splitter. Sitting on 4 old (40 run) Hoosiers that we just took off. Someone come buy them so I don't have to haul them home?
