April 11, 2006: Last night I tore into the car again.
The nose and front fenders came off for a repaint so the car looks good at Car and Driver. The nose in particular was pretty battered with some missing paint due to a badge misadventure. Hopefully there's enough paint left from the original batch to cover it. I tightened some fittings on the front brakes and tonight I'll find out if that sealed everything. It looks as if the brake problem was simply a seeping fitting. I was putting a fair bit of pressure through the lines over the weekend! Mark commented that I had the speed in the straights of the fast Subarus, but the braking points of his naturally aspirated Miata with sticky tires. Anyhow, that was the accomplishment for last night. I'm pretty sure there was more but I can't think of what it might be. Oh well. The list of jobs to do before Texas doesn't seem to be getting any shorter, but it does seem to be more specific than before.
