    I started reading from the beginning....um, I quit.
    Anyway, I noticed your passenger UCA has been broken before. I was gonna ask about that, but I see you are taking a step to correct it.

    Since I didn't finish, is there anything done to the motor?

    Mostly, I provide comic relief when he gets frustrated with the truck :p

    thanks...
    I remember in the video he just posted it sounded mean, I guess that's because he cut the exhaust short.

    LOL just got caught up on my own thread.

    No engine modifications for me. SCORE has engine restrictions on certain classes, one of which being Class 7sx which I was originally targeting. The Sportsman class that I now race is pretty much wide open anything goes, but I'm sticking with the stock engine and transmission for the time being. I have a lot of suspension tuning to do and driving skill to build up before trying to add more horsepower. Right now I'm the limiting factor and more power would just get me into more trouble faster. ;)

    Power adders (forced induction, NO2) are not allowed in any SCORE class.

    As for the exhaust, I'm really happy with the current note. Simple little Borla 12" long muffler on the end of a short pipe after the catalytic converters. I still have all the emission stuff on there for inspection purposes. :)

    We learned everything we needed to know in a few nights. Just schedule the test and it'll give you a deadline.

    I mostly studied from the quiz sections. They use the same pool of questions for every test, randomly selected.
