Yep.  Even though it might get better later in the day these on & off showers have done it for me this morning.  Hope to see you all next week.
No modification goes unpunished. Memento mori.  Good people drink good beer.  Things happen pretty fast at high speeds.

It's all up to your will level, your thrill level and your skill level.  Everything else is just fluff.

Sure, of course, now it's the afternoon and getting nice.........  [bang]

We had fun.  I didn't race (blown Koni) so we went late and were only there for my son's heat...but it was good fun watching my grandson pointing at his dad's car and proclaiming "Daddy racing", "Daddy racing" throughout each run...

Defective strut insert, leaking copiously around the adjuster.  Animal?...hardly, I'm only learning the car and thus far I'm driving it like an old lady... :'(

Hiccups........ not saying that this is it but how old is the battery?  I'm not really seriously suspecting it but if it's old ( 3 yrs plus ) then that might could be something to look at. Just 'cause.

New battery installed at SSD's suggestion when they changed the regulator in Feb...maybe something to do with the fuel pump as you suggested earlier...
