Before these autocrosses I had raced the 400E 3 times at the drag strip and was not thrilled with my best time of 14.999 .
I new I had a miss and suspected the distributor caps and rotors as well as the plugs . I was not surprised when I replaced them .
Both caps had many cracks and they were very green inside with corrosion -- rotors also need replacing and the plugs were replaced at the same time . It now ran a lot faster and I will have to visit the drag strip again to see what a difference this has made . I need to get more rubber on the ground with this car as it smokes the Kumho Victorracers way too easily . Now have 225/50/15 rubber on the car . I will have to flare the fenders so I can get bigger tires on this car. I put my 16X7's with the Yoko AVS100's on the 300TE Wagon and they really handle well on that car . They rub on the 400E sinced I lowered it . I still plan on dropping the rear of the car another inch and lightening up the interior ( or what is left of it!)
Here are the results of the May 2nd race so you can see what other cars did as well .
Have fun and race your cars- If you are interested I can post the times from the May 17th event by the end of this week I hope.
