Another autocross today. No issues with the car. Valve train and new O2 seem to be working out. Oh I didn’t mention that in the last update.

Anyhow, I ended up 2nd in class. 4th on raw time. Super tight course. I never left 1st gear.

Post track day inspection Oil in catch can is probably like 1/2 qt. So I’m not actually burning a ton. No notable leaks up on the lift. Installed a new hub in LR. Used an MPI hub which is $250 vs $400 for the skf x trackers. Test drive verified the noise is gone. I…
