I've been following all these posts and videos! This is great! I went to a chump car race once at PIR a few years back when my brother in law and his team were out there. What a racket!
Gotta have a solid car out there to compete w/o breaking down! Congrats on the wins and just finishing the races!

Thanks Nick, I appreciate you following along and commenting! What team was your brother there with?

Being able to finish a race is a big thing, there is usually about 15-20% attrition per race.

Parts will fail in racing that may not fail in a street car ever. For example I've been messing with 240SXes since 2003, and I had never had an ECU fail. Our first race weekend out with our car.. ECU failed. And in a weird way, it ran but didn't want to rev properly like exhaust was plugged or something, which really threw us for a loop.

In general though, if you maintain the car properly these Nissans can take SO much abuse and just keep ticking..
