removed wiring running along passenger side of car...only 3 wires now coming from dash area going down the right side...2 for right rear abs sensor and a ground wire...another 2.7lb gone and the car still runs!!!!

new rubber juast arrived...went with a 235/45r17...price was unbeatable and the fit pretty square on the 8" rims....swapped in the koni/h&r set-up as wellcar sits a bit lower now...much stiffer set-up than the stock shocks with h&r sports that were on it...too dark for a decent picture....a little more wiring work and it is time to start thinking of the cage build.

yep $102 each landed...$35 cheaper than 245/40...hopefully we can utilize the savings and not be too far off on the track.

going to run 'ec' with Chump...there is no value for it yet and it it gets a value over the next couple years I can swap them out...our civic handles very well with the koni str.t...might just go straight to billy sports...just cost more.

we have a series out west called Lucky Dog...Cathy that was formerly the western chump director foormed it last year...no value basing...classed based on time-in sessions...not a true one class racing like Chump but we ran a combined event with WRL (World Racing League) at the ridge last season...they are power to weight classed...our chump legal civic won the second 8 hour event (first day was another chump civic that won overall - we had just done the same thind at Pacific raceways in Seattle 2 months earlier with Chumpcar...they won day one-we won day 2)...so the newer upstart series are very welcoming to builds of all kinds but we can still go play with Chump as "ec"....

a bit more wiring and drilling out some of the tack welded brackets that have no use and then it is time to start thing of a cage.
