The car ran very well, no issues. A loose battery lead required an in field repair and later there was coolant coming out which was traced to a loose radiator cap. I had trouble getting all the belts hooked so ran with just the lap belts most of the time. I had some trouble on tight turns from lack of elbow room to turn the steering wheel. I may need to speed up the steering ratio. I gained confidence with the car as the day progressed. We had six runs I got in two cleanly.

I'm a lot slower than the car!

This weekend we're running at Grissom. I am looking forward to that. I'll be preparing the car tomorrow.

Woo hooooo!
