it’s immediately clear that the brakes are super sketch, but we kind of knew that going in; we didn’t have all the parts to install the ABS yet

we also talked to some folks about troubleshooting that so we’re confident that will be fixed by the July events

we also discovered oil pressure drop/starving issues in some corners; but this was also something we were prepared to fix this month

the people who made our swap kit released a oil baffle for this very issue later (after we assembled the engine, of course)

overall leaving that event we felt super confident that we found the issues we needed to find AND we knew how to fix them, which was a win/win

and then when we got home the clutch died getting the car up the driveway.

hunting down that issue has been a nightmare this month and then we discover the part that failed has an unknown ETA

so we’re like, are we doing anything in July at all? and then so I’m thinking I’ll come off of my hiatus this weekend

so yeah redoing all of that before July 3rd for our next test and tune will be fun
