Installed a new master cylinder flushed brake fluid and installed my 91' ZR1 saw-blades with new MT Sport Comps 315/35/17 in the rear and 275/40/17 in front. Found the right front tie rod boot ripped, going to replace next week.

Went out for a short drive (30 minutes). Realized I was low on fuel and stopped for 5 gallons (since premium was way overpriced on the highway). That five gallons took me from showing nearly empty to showing 5/8 full. So now I'm thinking through my fuel instrumentation

Went for a drive and tore up third gear synchronizer.

I've been busting my a$$ for the last three weeks getting it ready.

I was going to drive it to BG this weekend but it doesn't look like I am now.



Guess I'll have to take the 95 Z.

My RF headlight had hung up and today I finally got around to pulling the assembly and inspecting it to isolate the problem.

Much to my surprise I found the delrin bushings to be in great shape. After much pondering and more careful inspection finally I discovered a split in the side of the nylon gear.

Only problem now is that all the shops I've tried that stock the nylon unit are out of inventory till at least Mon...

Took off the top, and took my 4-year-old daughter for a ride. She likes to go fast, which is fine now but will be scary in 12 more years.

I called T.C.I. for about the tenth time to try to get them to send my transmission control unit back. I purchased the unit brand new this year and made it about 6 miles before it went bad. A month later I am still waiting. Sorry for the negative post I am just venting..............Jim S.

I found them on this forum, they're getting a little harder to find.

They where factory wheels on a Shelby Series 1 car made by Carroll Shelby in 1999 I believe.

Yeah...they might as well be made of unobtanium...when you CAN find them they are asking platinum prices for them.

Wish someone would reproduce them...CCW? Are you listening?
