Justin Robert, of AirCooled Productions did such an amazing job re-capping our Drift School event for Shaw TV. I'm so excited to share it!!

If you can't do, teach. Lately I've been unable to 'do'. My anxiety and fears of owning and operating my own drift car have changed since 7 years ago. Before I could have $5 in my pocket, no plan for next week and try to build and drift a car.

These days, I could have $5000 saved up, a retirement plan in place, and I'm more afraid now to make mistakes and fail then ever before. Rather than let my mental health hurdles block me, I decided to work with them. If I can't drift myself, might as well help...

Let's pickup where we left off...where were we....right! [caption id="" align="aligncenter" width="1024"] Digging around in the engine bay I found both of these. Jammed into the engine mounts. It looks like someone kept dropping and replacing their oil caps. lol I don't know how many years this car was carrying around 3 different oil caps.[/caption] Put a new distributor O-ring in today. It's been many years since I actually timed a vehicle myself. Don't worry, I can design 3 piece wheels to near exact manufacturing requirements, but timing an old carb'd car isn't common...
