Yep.  Even though it might get better later in the day these on & off showers have done it for me this morning.  Hope to see you all next week.

So how did it go?

We had fun.  I didn't race (blown Koni) so we went late and were only there for my son's heat...but it was good fun watching my grandson pointing at his dad's car and proclaiming "Daddy racing", "Daddy racing" throughout each run...

Defective strut insert, leaking copiously around the adjuster.  Animal?...hardly, I'm only learning the car and thus far I'm driving it like an old lady... Cry

Hiccups........ not saying that this is it but how old is the battery?  I'm not really seriously suspecting it but if it's old ( 3 yrs plus ) then that might could be something to look at. Just 'cause.

New battery installed at SSD's suggestion when they changed the regulator in Feb...maybe something to do with the fuel pump as you suggested earlier...
