I won't go into detail about why we chose not to use them, or who we got them from at this time. I am certain in your position you see first hand how dealing with the wrong manufacturer can be bad for business.

Any time we do something for use in the magazine we have to decided if we would spend our own money on the product/service/etc, and would we recommend this to someone else... The answer to both of these questions became no.

Personally I hate not using them. The 13" wheel/tire package was going to do so many good things, better gearing, lower CG, less weight. Ultimately I believe not having them will slow us down some at the Runoffs. But it is to late to do anything about it now, and ultimately you have to draw the line somewhere.

On a happier note... Last night I pulled out the CamCon and associated wiring, and got the stock harness all patched up. I can now plug in our recently delivered custom plug-n-play harness for our new engine management. Going to get it tuned tomorrow.

We have also scheduled the first installment on the Yaris to go in the Oct issue of SportsCar, which we are working on right now.

Long night... With still more to do. But it is alive and running on its new AEM plug-n-play. Details later.
