Default DFR Tech Day

Tech day is on, Friday morning 7am-10 am. Come by to watch S2000 wrenching in action, learn tips and tricks, and ask anything S2000.

I thought I saw a drive at 10:30, so I would like to wrap up to make the drives. Please fill me in if there is an earlier drive on Friday.

Valve adj cars must be in the tech spot Thursday eve, I will find you all and collect keys.

TCTs will be done wed-sat, when ever I can find you.

VA: Regular at my shop 185, dragon registrants 125

Road test:

-Florian/vibration (if you feel like getting into it, I will bring the tools and coach you through the fix. This will be a fantastic DIY for everyone to witness) job known as "Axle bucket swap". There will be some very technical stuff here to learn.

TCT: Regular 175, 100 dragon registrants

I'm not sure what's going on with mine, but it started on hellbender during the spring event- I have strong vibration coming from the rear driver's side when above 70mph... it's not the diff and the cv joint isn't leaking or anything.... Any input?

Florian most likely pitted left side CV joint bucket. You can swap side to side no parts needed.
