Mid season, I half expected to see Ryan back in this. After doing it for 8+ years, it should be hard to just step away… right? More and more, I feel like this is just my website and Ryan is never coming back. It’s true that he was only half here in the first place. 75% of the content has […]
Auto-X
Despite my car being wrecked, sitting immobile in some rural setting far away from my home while rain pours down… I am still beaming from the auto-x experience, and considering with great weight the application of my car towards this discipline and what that means for it’s reassembly.

I'm really lucky to have found such an example of 86. Several people have pointed out that despite all the work I've done, the car hasn't really changed. That's entirely true. It all really wasn't for very much. Differences from last year are as follows:
