Some pics form last weekend at Auto Club Speedway in Fontana California. We had our STi geared up to compete in round 3 of Redline Time Attack but unfortunately we blew both head gaskets and were pushing a bout half a gallon of coolant a lap so we called it quits. Motor will be stronger and will push even more power once finished.

We had a good deal of new issues at Willow Springs. Most were overcomed with hard work and dedication. Racing and development is a fun battle!!!
Issue 1. Low than zero oil pressure. Oil pump went down due to bad machining/shimming than damaged the piston inside.
Issue 2. no fuel pressure. One of the walbros in the tank died. We replaced it.
Issue 3. Knocking, hesitation. It was 105-110 degrees outside and track temps @ 165 degrees. Decreased the timing a tad and changed the spark plugs we were good to go.
Issue 4. Electrical failure. Car died while we had 6 car lengths over the K&N G35.
STi is in Nebraska right now. Cruising back to Chicago and prepping it up for all the local events, including but not limited to the GTA @ Autobahn later this year.
More updates soon.
