Again

A roller bearing inside the gearbox let go only a few races after it was repaired by a Tractive dealer. Managed to destroy a nice amount of shafts/gears.

Saw that as well. Has about 780km on it. I think a spare standard M56H will do right now!

Updated to 2005 headlamps. Much better look and fitment.

Picked up the new pedal box yesterday. Hoping no firewall modifications need to be made...

I kinda liked the old headlights with those black parts.

But your old headlights were pretty worn right?

I've never seen a racecar with an enginebay that clean...

Old headlights were pretty worn (most of the mounting tabs were broken off, and the lenses were cracked). Thinking about yellow film on the new headlamps.

Thanks for the comment regarding the engine bay...try my best to keep it as clean as possible! Changed the timing belt and tensioner the other day as well.

Thank you.

Update:

Struts/shocks came back from rebuild. Just replaced seals and added fresh oil. Front struts, uprights, etc. are back in car. Rear shocks are not in yet as we are modifying the rear subframe assembly to allow camber to be adjusted easier and faster. Car will sit higher than last year, and will be corner weighed with more weight toward the front wheels.

Tractive gearbox parts arrived today so we can start rebuilding it after a roller bearing blew apart at Watkins Glen heavily damaging internal parts/casing.

New dead pedal courtesy of OMP, and new rotors from Sweden with black anodized hats.

A little update tonight. Rebuilt AP calipers with new seals, pistons, and anti-knockback springs, and bolted them up.
