![]() ![]() ![]() The engine threw a rod. 220 miles and 6 hours later, the car arrived at Z Car Garage, where it remains while we draw up a repair plan. A word of caution for those spending lots of time at the track: we believe fuel-starvation was the culprit in this case -- it's not just bad for lap times, but bad for the engine too. We'll be including phunk's Road Race Pump as part of the repair plan and I'll document the effort as we make progress!
