Well here is the quick and dirty on the Harvest Event for me:

Been battling fuel filter issues for the bulk of the year. At this point very stumped. Have had an interesting idea presented that the car has sat too much so the fuel that has been in the tank may have separated which can cause rust and corrosion problems for inline components. This tied to tuning issues made life pretty difficult and frustrating. Boils down to the loss of the job in February causing a full halt on progress for too long. Decent head and cross winds didn't help either. Bottom line is that I didn't hit even speeds from 2014 with a more powerful and free flowing setup. Disappointing to say the least. That being said having Dell, Spencer, and Jay there to assist was invaluable. I can't thank them enough. Fun too (even if I didn't show it). Another positive note is that I got to learn what it is like racing in close to full safety gear. I believe all that I would have to add is a Hans device. The car did run pretty well and nothing broke which is always a plus. It amazes me and pretty much everyone else how stout this 1.5l engine truly is. Lastly I got to spend some time with the racing family which I will always cherish. I will miss them all if I don't see them again. Once again thanks go out to #JrtCustoms #HoganTire #BlvdGraphix #DelewareChassisWorks for the assistance and sponsorships. Without them racing for me wouldn't be possible.
