Kermit Racing Home Page: Getting ready for NASA August 1 & 2 @ TWS
http://kermitracing.blogspot.com/2009/07/getting-ready-for-nasa-august-1-2-tws.html
Kermit Racing Home Page. Tuesday, July 21, 2009. Getting ready for NASA August 1 and 2 @ TWS. I managed to cross all the items off the "To Do" list, even new tires! TrackTime Performance had a killer deal on Toyo RA-1, so I ended up ordering two set of tires. Brake pads were installed, and all the clutch and maintenance intems were replaced. New parts were ordered from GermanAutoParts. They are sending a replacement windage tray for free and the full order is free shipping too! Those guys are awesome.

Kermit Racing Home Page. Thursday, August 27, 2009. NASA August 1 and 2 @ TWS Did Not Happen. Very disappointing, I wasn't able to run NASA Time Trials in August 1 and 2. The replacement oil pan and VW Motorsport windage tray arrived on time, however, UPS managed to damage the oil pan during transit. Since I wasn't going to to attend the NASA event, I decided to ditch the VWM windage tray and go with a baffled oil pan from Techtonics Tuning. September 12 and 13 with PCA at TWS.

Kermit Racing Home Page. Wednesday, August 27, 2008. Today, the Ground Control coilovers I ordered arrived. I'm starting with 500# front and 600# spring rates. I already have Bilstein Sport shocks, which I plan to send for re-valving as soon as they give in. The 28mm Neuspeed rear sway bar will stay at the full stiff setting, however, I plan on playing with it next event. Links to this post. Monday, August 25, 2008. Here are pictures of the update:.

Kermit Racing Home Page. Sunday, February 8, 2009. New Tracks for Kermit. Dec 6 and 7 with TDE at MSR Cresson. Fourth session and last one for Saturday. I was getting faster each lap until the brake padel went to the floor. The master cylinder failed :(, I was done for the weekend since I didn't feel like replacing it at the track. MSR Cresson, we'll meet again . Jan 31 and Feb 1 with NASA at MSR Houston. Again, I was using the Falken Azenis for the first two session on Saturday. MSRH was turning out...

Kermit Racing Home Page: Adding Another Track H2R
http://kermitracing.blogspot.com/2009/04/adding-another-track-h2r.html
Kermit Racing Home Page. Wednesday, April 15, 2009. Adding Another Track H2R. The plan for March 21-22 didn't go well. While installing the new cam and adjustable cam gear, I made a mistake and timed the engine incorrectly. As you could imagine, Kermit's engine didn't like that. After pulling the head, the damaged was reduced to bent exhaust valves. This allowed me to do the head work I was planning on doing anyway. H2R Session 4 - S2K Days. Head milled 0.040". 3-angle valve job (stock valves). The engin...

Kermit Racing Home Page. Wednesday, December 9, 2009. Moved to the Advanced Run Group. September 27 with PDS at TWS. Back on r-comp tires and running CCW direction. This time my best lap was 2'07.6" after carrying more speed into turn 1. In preparation for the next track event I replaced the rotor and cap. I drove the car around the block and I couldn't feel any misfires. October 24 and 25 with PCA at TWS. What a beautiful weekend! As promissed by the PCA organizers. Then third session came and Kermit ra...
