Whatever you do don't take it to the track with a coolant leak... track officials and patrons get real pissy about that kind of problem (with oil leak being the only thing worse LOL). There's a shop in Laurel that fixed my PWR radiator for around $120 after I poked a hole in it during install. If interested I'll get you the name.

My Car is randomly not starting. Blower. Seems to only do it after I shut it off after driving and then try to restart it. Never does it in the morning. Any ideas.

How was their work quality, did they seem like a good shop and did the have a lot of work exp with rads. I mean I am interested to check out the one in Rockville first, but I am always up for having back up plans.

I'd love to see back to back runs from Scott, Dave, and the man that can't be named.

I'd predict Scott 17.9 Dave 18.2 and man that can't be named DNF (due to manual transmission)
Need to have a trailer to take it there, But would be a good time. I would be in for that.

Alberto would probably break the beater track car so he would have to go last or one pass all day......

It is a radiator shop that my body shop used; the repair was done while I was getting other work done, I'll get the name and PM it to you. the hole was right in the middle, they sealed it with a small weld then pressure tested it. Been fine for a couple years since.

Sadly yes, probably still wont get it done for awhile. Not super motivated to do it, and it runs fine if I am just driving around.

The little one he had before the redhead looked like Amy Reid. I'll go on record as being officially jealous of that one...
