Well, I dug in this morning, getting ready for my second DE next weekend at Texas Motor Speedway. I did my first valve adjustment (as well an changed the oil) and put in new plugs. All went well.

An added "bonus": when I took of my rear wheels for the valve thing, one of the tires had 2 well sealed/embedded nails. I'd hoped to go thru one more DE before getting new rear tires, but what the heck, I ordered a couple of S-03's which will be in Monday. I was somewhat concerned about the stickiness of the old tires as we'll have all 4 turns on the oval (speed potential!) and an infield portion in the course. It's supposed to be what they used for ALMS in the past. I'm pretty pumped up now with the fact I'll have new rubber back there now.

Another bonus was the weather, instead of 94 humid degrees like we had yesterday, it was high 70's today, perfect wrenching weather!
