Its really hard to miss the 3-4 shift. But after three years of use, and many guest drivers, I am sure it has been well used. I know guys that are having to rebuild much more costly trans every season, so I wont complain about getting three years out of this one.

Only asked because you said the downshift was getting bad but the upshift was fine.

I had the same problem with 4th on my 6 speed transmission I built years ago. But after having it out to swap in my new turbo engine I switched to royal purple and the notchy downshift to 4th has nearly completely cleared up.

Going the DLC route or WPC treating the parts?

Jason@SportsCar · 02-01-2016, 03:33 PM

Took the car out to Auto Club Speedway over the weekend for the SCCA U.S. Majors Tour. Took the win from the pole on Saturday, and knocked another tenth off the H Prod track record, now at a 1:59.302.

Sunday we thought it was going to stay dry enough to run full slicks, was just a slight sprinkle when we headed to grid, but it started to rain hard during the race. At one time I was leading the group overall, but it was not worth pushing that hard to so I backed off a bit. Took the win in HP and finished 3rd overall.

Have been using the same GoPro Hero 3+ for a couple of years... The difference in clarity is due to the windshield being tinted.

Cool, learned something new

The 2017 race season is under way. Just head a double header at Auto Club Speedway. Took the H Prod pole, claimed the win both days, and reset the record that I set at this event last year. Looking forward to Indy in October.

Top shelf level of cool.

Any chance you'll get to MIS this summer?

My Idol

Good news bad news kind of day... We know we have the 2015 to use until the end of the year, so Indy is a go. However, we know after Dec 2017 this tub goes to the crusher. Nice I don't have to wonder when the call is going to come, and I know it wont interrupt the season, but will be sad to see it go.

What determines how long you can use a chassis?

The Feds. A preproduction car can only be here for a limited number of years before it has to be shipped back to its country of origin or crushed. Standard is three years, you can get waivers that allow for two additional years. This chassis has been here since 2014, so we are already into a waiver to get the 2017 season out of it. And with changes on the way for 2018 no reason to keep this car on the books.

Very interesting, thanks.

If I may ask, are you sticking with the Yaris platform thereafter?
