GHIT 0068: NHMS 2019 Prep Week

Please vote for Vicki A https://www.intechtrailers.com/max-the-tach# 

NHMS race weekend prep status.

One race, two cars, neither working.  The rest is good though.

On one hand we have the BMW E36 3 series from 1998.  Issues, yes.  It won’t start.  It seems to not be getting power to the computer system and won’t turn over.  We found one wiring issue and are tracking down any others, slowly.  One good thing is that the prior owners live very close to our race, so as a last resort, we may ask for some assistance.

El Jeffe/The Bad Hombre:  Braking issues abound.  Still.  The caliper/pads do not fully release from the rotors, which may be the issue we have been battling this entire season.

On this episode:

1. Alan breaks up into a game of boggle with things like DME, EWS2, etc.
2. Vicki breaks back in and tries to get us to explain what is going on
3. Bill breaks down the entire battle we have been having with the brakes on the race truck
4. El Jeffe brake theories, plan, and a review of the current status
5. An El Jeffe Transit story for the books
6. Alan talks about flashing ECU’s and seeking additional help to get the E36 running well again.
7. Alan does his best weatherman impression and forecasts clear skies for the E36
8. Kate even makes a quick guest appearance towards the end

It seems to be a standard week before the race.  Now will this turn out?  Tune in tomorrow, same bat channel, same bat time.

Or actually when we record at the track this weekend.
