A new heart... & Miata Maintenance

We found a new heart for Frankie yesterday. A nice SBC... Well used, but in reasonable shape. The awesome part is that we got it for the cost of a nice engine stand!

Past that, parts are starting to show up for my Miata. I'm excited to get out there and get autocrossing. Sadly, this week looks like it will be in the 30s for temps... Definitely not Miata weather!

Miata maintenance that I did today:

- Spark Plugs

- Spark Plug Wires

- Air Filter

- PCV Valve

- Fuel Filter (that was a little messy!)

Other things:

Loosened the spark plugs on the SBC for Frankie... Sprayed the engine down to loosen it up for future work.

It was a nice productive evening.

First Sponsor of 2011!

All Right! We have our first sponsor of 2011!

Sprecher Brewery, one of my favorite local makers of fine Root Beer (among other things), has agreed to sponsor us with some cases of gourmet sodas for our races!

Pictures!

Hi everyone! Big thanks to everyone that posted pictures to the albums. If you look on the right side we now have two fairly full albums of pictures!

After a long delay...

And, after a long delay, I'm finally back at posting... Sorry about the looooong delay.

I've finally gotten some video editing software, so here goes, the first intro video:
