    Wow, the full lighting, and heating/ac vents will really be welcomed.  Thanks for the effort.  Reminds me of the deluxe  California facility I used in the mid-60’s.

    The Fiat and BMW have endurance enhancing ac, but when I was out of the cars it was miserable.  The pit crew was hanging out in the transporter that has ac in the front half.  An ambulance made a pick up in the park across from King’s.

    8 Ball Fiat racing was at the big track Thurs. evening testing the new inline pod and the affiliated BMW team was checking repair from previous race.  It was 93.7 degrees and no one else showed up by the time the cars were loaded into the transport at 7:30.

    I thought the marshaling was good last week.  I was surprised to knock David off in the esses when I thought I would let him pass on the bridge.

    i would suggest that cars off of the track for repairs be put back on the track at one of the two end corners by a marshal when the approach is clear of oncoming cars.  I was blinded a few times by cars coming back to race on the esses.

    Done including thinning the backside of the calipers and thinning the outer rim a little.  I might be fighting very fine filings for a month.

    I installed the recommended SC-2715p tire aNd wheel, but the disc brake and insert do not fit into the wheel.  What is allowed to get the insert and brake set in/on the wheel?

    My Fiat angle winder is far from ready.  I need less volts, better balance to whip around the tight turns, maybe a short trim on the guide.  Had the sensitivity on one just to stay in or near the slot.  Not fun.  Broke another chunk of chin spoiler on a wooden post.  Sheeesh!

    My new bmw has nuts/bolts that do not fit any of my tools.  What size are the various hexes or are they torx?

    I have ordered the SC-7068R BMW #19.  It was less expensive than the steel chassis.   I never imagined I would own a Bayerische Mist Wagen when I was a youngster in Germany.  I have a set of tires already.

    I agree we should have the series manager on hand to discuss the ScaleAuto series.  He has the rubber tire report.  It would also also be helpful to include him in the full discussion about the chassis options of the metal and carbon parts.
