I know the artwork for the shirts is around somewhere, because on occasion a few new shirts pop up like they did at the Club Sport Challenge, but I don't know who has it or if they will make more.

The GT cars were on Goodyear Eagle RS (DOT race tires) 205-50-15.

Its done. Just shipped the second installment of the Yaris project. SportsCar readers should have it in 3-4 weeks.

After a week at the Toyota garage, and every combination of bucket and shims attempted, they were not able to replace our cams. Turns out the person who built our head, and reground the cam, did so in a fashion that prevents the stock cams from going back in (without pulling the head and doing more machine work) - even though he told me it would be a direct bolt-in, only requiring a shim/bucket change.

Is it part of the business model, do they all have to tell lies?

So we will run the car with our old setup this weekend. And now I am contemplating putting in the spare engine for the rest of the season.
