Anybody else going to be at Rally TN?

We're just about ready...just a bit more tuning and we should be good to go.

Had hoped to be there, but timing and money was not on my side.
Make us proud Per!

iw as planning on doing the rally moto but the bike needed new tires, gears + chain, clutch, etc etc and I needed full racing leathers...I opted to forgo this event. I'll be at West VA.

Ok, final tweaking netted some pretty decent a/f curves...Wish you all were coming, but hey, see you at STPR.

Woohoo...another finish. 13 overall and 2nd in class (M2, listed incorrectly)

The car is still popping out of gear, especially when it gets hot. I'm thinking it's because the oil is thinning out...does that make sense? (I'm flushing it with 10w30 and driving it for a while...probably time to switch to MT90 per Luke's suggestion)

I forget where you are at with motor mounts but it could be a sign that the transmission has some issues. Still some Saab Sport and Rally motor mounts wouldn't hurt....aka hockey pucks....just ask Per Eklund.
