I found 3 AA batteries in the tech box, they're a bit rusty though, so yes, Scott pick up a big pack of AA's . We also need someone to get gas for the genny......I can be that someone

Will do.

We should find out what the tire pressure should be and then paint/mark it above the wheel well. No further guessing,

[snookwheel]

Trailer tires are commonly much higher pressure than 35 lbs. please do check the max cold pressure and go with that. Low pressure generates heat and tire failure.... No fun on a trailer, I have learned from experience.. Scott

[Rawkkrawler]

I have no idea what we have for supplies. Anyone know?

There are 8-10 cases of water, a couple of full 12-packs of sodas (Sprite and caffine-free Diet Coke, IIRC), and about a half-cooler full of loose sodas. Also about a half-case of peanut-butter crackers, and some paper plates.

We also need both AA and 9-volt batteries.

I'll bring an assortment of both AA and 9 volt.

I have the batteries. I will also print out a few copies of the course map.

Took my mtx apart and found this

[Solar]

What is wrong ? Not familiar with fwd Dodge transmission's, all the gears look clean, and the bearings look ok. What is the problem ?

[Solar]

Ok, it could be just the picture, but is the main drive gear out of align of the housing ?

[rojna]

diff pin came out and hit the roller bearing that fell apart and took out some teeth

[Solar]

I'll share, but he won't be able to get the points in M3...not sure if that matters or not.

Wow, and here I thought getting new tires mounted at the last minute was impressive ! You go Greg !

I couldnt make it today;( My left axle seal was leaking diff fluid out from last weeks autox. Finally had time to fix it today.. I'll have to use my credit in March since I'm not on the LIST for Feb. autox duel..

Jeff, if you feel you should be on the list (4+ events in the past 12 months), PM me and I'll double-check. Otherwise, keep your eyes peeled... if the "members" don't fill the event quickly enough, we'll start opening it up to others.

But, today's even is no longer "upcoming", so locking this thread.
