July 7, 2006: Two years since the first drive, and it's time to hit the track again.
I'll spend some time tomorrow making sure the car is in good shape, but mostly it'll just be a matter of doing a quick nut-and-bolt. The temperatures are looking fairly reasonable and as long as the thunderstorms stay away it might be a good day for times.

Someone commented that I needed a faster steering rack. It certainly wouldn't hurt, although it's not going to be cheap unless I simply install a steering quickener. It's only on the autocross course that it seems necessary, and even then it's primarily in the slaloms. Something to think about, anyhow. It's always good to have a project!
