Day one of the season did not go as planned. My cool DIY dust shield mod backfired a bit. The abs harnesses popped out of their clips and got totally torched. Turn one at a buck-20 and no brakes at all. :eek So I spent the day trying to learn how to drive the car all over again, without the abs. I was locking the wheels up all over the place as I had to learn threshhold braking during competition. I finally got close in the last session, but by then it was too late. I finished second by a little less than 8/10ths of a second. :( I've got one side fixed, gonna try and do the other one in the AM. Hopefully the fix will withstand the heat.
On a positive note, I lowered my personal best lap time there by 2 seconds....
