[Fot] What are you working on?

[Brian Garcia]

After helping Jason get the top end back together on the #69 GT6, I finished the prints for a few parts on the #27 GT6 and sent them out for laser cutting.  Today I am finishing the prep list for the Cheetah and loading it for Road America next week while watching Jason kick butt on Race Monitor.  Tonight I'm installing a new differential in the Barracuda to begin prepping for The Long Race at Blackhawk next month.  This week we start working on the #27 GT6 for the same.  Think I need a few more projects....

Each rotation of the cam yielded 4 loud clunks as the cam gear shifted around on its fastening bolts.  The bolts were still tight and the retaining tans in place.
