MitsuStyle - View Single Post - Just finished my first endurance race in a 1g DSM!

I already surprised a lot of people I think. There was another 1g that was packed full of aftermarket parts and sloppy work (FMIC, 16g, AFC, etc) and blew up after 7 laps. That's the sort of reputation I hope to change!

Unfortunately we had some minor issues on sunday - misfire and an oil leak (shame on me for using a spectra oil pan, it started leaking at the baffle spot weld) , it was really hot (another upper 80/lower 90 degree day, friday had a heat index of 120), we didn't feel like working on it, and we just decided to trailer it to be ready for gingerman in late august.
