Yep. Still expecting a few more. I am going to have to send back one of the new calipers. It had no hardware in the box.

Hines Group Motorsports 2011 season was decent with a third place at the SCCA Road America Runoffs, a couple of wins, a lap record and the Northeast Divison championship in Touring 3. For 2012 we will do more double nationals and run mostly in the Northeast Division again but a double race at VIR in SE Div. and a double at Mid-Ohio in Central Div. More schedule and news later.

Thread-jack alert: who can sleeve some OEM Front (or rear) Brembo Calipers?

I'm trying to rebuild some off my 350Z and the inside bore is all buggered up...no wonder the the pistons where so dayum hard to remove...(pistons look good...

Dude, it is getting out of control...LOL

UPS/FedEx are making record stops at your place.

I'm super jealous. I think the most I've got in a week or so was like 4 or 5 packages. It's just non-stop with you.

lol, that should be it for a while. I had to get all the stuff in so I could start with all the new Spec changes.

Still no power adders though. So I will still be sporting lots of noise and not much push at first.

Looks like you got a lot of work to do. When's your first race? Doesn't your region start pretty soon?

The first regional race is Feb 11th. I won't make that one. The first national/mutli-regional race is March 24th. I want to have it finished and a few test sessions before then.
