Ryan and I got together today for some brief preparation for next weekends private drift practice and other stuff. Nothing major. For the 20, we flipped the back tires on the rim as the first event with only a degree of camber really left a mark on the outside edge. We made a trip to two of Calgary’s scrap yards, […]

This meant about 0.5 degree […]

I have however, spent the last week ripping the suspension apart to replace bushings and balljoints. Very good. I’ve also removed the EGR completely, replacing the crushed piping with […]
