With the days numbered before heading North for recce, the team has been working furiously to complete the car preparations. First there was a gearbox to fit back in its hole, then a refit of the rebuilt struts, brakes and driveshafts, and exhaust and sump-guard. We decided to refit the mudflaps, as this is a rallycar and thats how it should look! Zara needed a seat placement adjustment, and date-complying belts had to be fitted. Corner weights were done, and the front to rear, and left to right balance sorted. The intercom was re-routed, and a rough camber setting and brake-bleed done. PHEW!
Andrew Morris from Signworks showed up with lots of stickers, and set to task making the WRX look battle-ready.
Tomorrow, after a couple of little tidy-ups, we will go out to Baskerville Raceway, and have a shakedown run to see if anything falls off. Then it will be on the trailer ready to head to Legana Tyres & More on Monday, for Mick Luscombe to do his alignment magic, and slap on the new Yokohama boots. So far, so good.
