Default Thunder Hill 2/20/05 pics

Here's some pics from Thunder Hill last Sunday

Team Acutech Racing ready for the beginning of the enduro and yes, those clouds did open up.



New body work after the car rolled 3 times at the last enduro.



Team GOTO:Racing after getting shoved off the track by Fantasy Junction (The same team that punted us off at the last enduro in the same turn). All the real damage was on the driver side.



So where is my car?

This is as far as it got:


The master cylinder gave out in the paddock and I never set foot on the track.

Just in case you want to see the whole car:

You won't have any more master cylinder problems as soon as UPS arrives!

Trust me, after the time and effort put into last weekend (and the whole week before) I was considdering it, but the condition of the MC was rapidly failing just driving around the paddock.

Lesson learned and I'll never have a MC start to fail without me noticing from now on.

Just because the rules require them I guess if the brakes got too bad I could have just stuck my hand out the window to slow down.

I found a spare master cylinder on ebay for about $50 IIRC, barely used. As a matter of fact, i found most of my now comprehensive spares package on ebay... I've got an entire brake system in a crate
