Well the race is less than 14 days away I leave in 10. The GRM car once
again still doesnt run, But I have high hopes for it.

Its not neat yet, no nifty captions.
That was an all day task.
Moved the adjustment jets from the nozzles to right after the solenoids,
ease of change and I only have to buy 2 -- its cheaper, and I dont need a
special tool to flare the ends of standard compression fittings for the
nitrous piping.
Made a new plate for the re-routed water pipe out the front. I decided the
thin 1/8" plate just wasnt goign to cut it, my 6th sense told me it would
leak all over the place.
Roll bar (reduced from cage) is 95% installed.
Cams installed (268/272 regrinds)
see the details here
