There are a few little things where the car could sue attention. First is the power steering hose. While on a road trip to Wyoming I had power steering leaking. I took it to a local mechanic who fabbed up a replacement for the leaky line since one could not be sourced locally. The car drives mine and power steering is fully functional but I would suggest replacing it with an oem part before any hard driving. Another minor thing is at the bottom center of the windshield is a tiny crack in the glass from rock thrown at me from a semi. Again barley even noticeable but probably worth having it sealed. The wheel speed sensor in the right front side is also broken. Because of this traction control is permanently off. I've never bother to change it because I prefer it that way but it should be an easy fix if you're into that. The last issue is a boost leak that sprang up after the turbo replacement. The boost leak triggering a p1297 code and between new car, new job and school I haven't had the time nor money to get it looked at. The car pulls really hard to about 10psi before falling on its face. That being said even with the leak this car is set up to be a blast in summer or winter. I've sunk thousands into this car with maintenance and upgrades and though it has a few issues its one step away from being supreme. I wish I had the space, money and time to finish myself. I'm trying to be as open as possible but as this is a private used car sale, and a modified one at that, it is an as-is sale with no warranty expressed or implied.The same goes for emissions testing. I don't have to deal with emissions where I live so I cannot testify in that regard. Though with the professional e85 conversion, including documentation I can provide, titling it shouldn't be any problem. Willing to ship but buyer must arrange and pay for shipping. Fully payment must be received before shipping. Has a clean and clear Colorado Title ready to be signed over. Thanks!

Overnight action from the 24 Hours of Le Mans

Sun, 23 Jun 2013

We won't go into a recap here, but there are still leading positions being fought for in all classes - it's so close that leads are changing when a car goes into the pits. We'll let the recap wait until the end of the race, so for now enjoy some shots from last night's action at the 24 Hours of Le Mans.

Conquest and controversy conclude the 2014 Rolex 24 at Daytona [spoilers]

Sun, 26 Jan 2014

If you don't wish to know who won the 2014 Rolex 24 at Daytona, you should avert your eyes right now. We'll even give you a double-space to skedaddle...
For those of you still with us, the first race in the United SportsCar Championship (USCC) is done, but the discussions about it certainly won't end for a while. Daytona Prototypes claimed the first four overall places, the top spot taken by the No. 5 Action Express Coyote-Chevrolet Corvette DP driven by Joao Barbosa, Christian Fittipaldi, Sebastien Bourdain and Burt Friselle. The 16th and final caution of the race bunched the field up for an eight-minute sprint to the flag, so the first place getter finished just 1.4 seconds ahead of the No. 10 Wayne Taylor Racing Dallara-Chevrolet Corvette DP driven by Max Angelelli. Third place went to Brian Friselle in the No. 9 Action Express Chevrolet Corvette DP, 20 seconds down. Chevrolet power hasn't taken the overall win since 2003, eleven years later it scores a one-two-three-four. The No. 6 Muscle Milk/Pickett Racing ORECA-Nissan 03 scored fifth place, the top LMP2 finisher.
The Prototype Challenge class win went to the No. 54 CORE Autosport team of Colin Braun, Jon Bennett, Mark Wilkins and James Gue.

Audi pits Star Trek's new Spock versus the original

Tue, 07 May 2013

The only thing that makes a sci-fi geek happier than William Shatner and Patrick Stewart in the same room is when two Spocks collide. Audi has somehow managed to do just that ahead of the release of the second film in this historic franchise's new go-round called Star Trek Into Darkness, which opens in theaters nationwide on May 17th.
We won't spoil the fun (you can, and should, watch it yourself below), suffice it say that the original Spock, Leonard Nimoy, steals the show from the franchise's new Spock, Zachary Quinto. The short video has the two Vulcans battling wits in a series of challenges that quickly comes to involve cars, but Audi manages to outwit them both in the final scene by leaving these logical beings with an emotion that resembles amazement.
This is the second summer blockbuster that Audi has tied its four rings to, the other being Iron Man 3. Whereas Tony Stark's garage and the Marvel universe have more Audis per square mile than people, we aren't expecting to see an Audi logo on the warp drive of the USS Enterprise in this latest Trek tale.
