nope, I was in group 2 in my first session and had to pull over every lap. My instructor went to talk to Chris which ran the nasa event so Chris jumped in the car and rode with me. He saw I was ready to step up and signed me off.

Cool. Now get your lap times down about 13 seconds and you'll be on pace Slicks should help get 2-3 seconds off, and practice for the rest lol.

I'm eager to see the video.

Do you have a working link for the video?

As for the diff rebuild, it depends on what you broke.

What gear were you running, 3.23?

WEre you running a race built lsd, or a normal lsd just rebuilt?
