One month resume

So, just to brake the silence a bit. Resume of the month, that passed. It was really more shopping time, than working with car.

Bought IR thermometer. Very nice toy. Found, that my oil temperature gauge lies about 10-15 degrees which is good :). And that water temperature gauge doesn't lie to me. Which is also good.

Bought some cheap accelerometer. Measures G's, acceleration, horsepower, breaking distance. Seems to be not very optimistic (like Tesla G-Meter old versions were). Measured friends 220v - 10.2 seconds 0-100, 54 meters 100-0. That's very non optimistic, which is good ;).

Still thinking what clutch to buy, was offered SPEC, clutchnet (very expensive race piece) and local made one. Tend to buy local one together with new pressure plate from LUK or SACHS.

Also the main point is roll cage selection. Yes, the beautiful interrior must go. It's sad, I don't like very much, however I like my health more, so sane mind won. It will be professional roll cage this winter in the car. This means complete tearing apart whole thing (I promise pictures).

One more thing - cleaned the car (especialy wheels) and went to local audi show:
My car was standing in the very respectfull company of rally-cross urquattro, and heavy modified red ur (only white wheel is in the picture).
