Big stuff

• Fuel starvation... still need to fix this... haven't made any progress and it is going to be needed to drop a couple tenths off my times
• Brake issue... I had the "ICE EFFECT" big time today and it was embarrassing... the chief driving instructor thought I was just being an idiot when I slowly grinded to a halt half way through a carousel... I have a new theory about what is going on that I will explain on the thread Chrisslicks started Braking problem - malfunctioning ABS... I'm going to proceed with more brake cooling, but that's *NOT* the root cause, I'm fairly certain
• ECU issue... I want my SRM back! could be as simple as reprogramming the computer... it is new and the dealer didn't have time to program it... could also be we have another short, blown circuit or disconnect somewhere... the three center gauges are not working... I haven't even checked the fuses yet, so that's the first order of business
• Rear diff cooler setup

Smaller stuff / lower priority

• Connect transponder, reconnect traqmate/chasecam
• Splitter ver 2... need to revisit the fasteners - they are being sheared off whenever I scrap the track - will post more on this below
• Fluids... gear oil, motor oil
• Setup... I'm thinking about -3.0/-2.5deg camber, neutral toe front, -1/8 toe rear, and 5.0deg caster front...
• Stiffer springs... I'm using 10/12k springs now and I'd like it to be stiffer yet... won't happen in 2010, but eventually something like these Moton 3 Way Adjustable Nissan Motorsport Dampers with 800+lb/in springs

Just curious...were you and Junior able to install the diffuser that I mentioned long time ago?

Maybe you should just install a racing fuel cell at this point. I am certain that you have already considered this.
