I’ve been away/gone for a long time (life had gotten very depressing and complicated) and some things have changed with the car. Photos are definitely to come but I’d found a potentially unhealthy obsession with weight reduction for sake of dynamic performance and I’d done a couple small things for sake of aero, but nothing really groundbreaking. Summer and autumn of 2022 were spent deep in a depression and I drove the car *very very* hard, had a couple tanks below 20mpg (if that’s an indication of how hard) and ended up spinning a rod bearing in the engine I’d built by starving it of oil in corners. Changed just the short block in December 2022 and ran the car up to October 2023 and now it’s parked in storage.
My heart wants this to not be the end, but I genuinely don’t know if I’ll ever make progress on this again…
