    Blasting is on hold until the range owner gets through some heavy workload. Things are busy, and the range is part of his property. Once he gets things settled we will set something up. I'll add you to the chat I've got going on it so you'll have the updates and details.

    Snowflake is ready to come home from the shop today. Going to do a 150 point inspection on her and hopefully everything's done right or back she goes.

    Anybody have a tap and die set? The wind knocked over our guidon and broke the spear off. I was thinking I could smooth it off then drill and tap a new hole :notsure: I did find one for $32 so I may go that route.

    Aww man, sucks. I don't think I have a tap that big. Have you tried a tool that removes the broken stud?

    Everything's done well on the body work but the alignment is out and the wheel is cocked 30° to the left. I'm like wtf, so annoyed.

    Those flat rate guys are on a huge time crunch, and they tend to miss some things. It's good you looked it over.

    Yeah, trying to get them to do the alignment today and be done with it.

    They are claiming they didn't do any suspension work but it wasn't like that when we dropped it off.

    One of their guys actually delivered the car to our house yesterday and I'm pretty sure he kissed a curb or something.
