	No Wild West for Me by brian @ 19:03:25 - [perma-link] Josh made quick work of the transmission disassembly (more pics soon), all the way down to the front output-shaft bearing of the donor. Te bearing just wouldn't budge. I called around looking for a replacement. Its a week away at the dealer, and they were the only ones who could even get a part number. I went home and tried using a slide hammer puller I picked up at Harbor Freight. It kind of almost worked a little, but still didn't get a good grip. So I broke the bearing carrier, then used a 3-arm puller to remove the shell. Now I have a part number for another set of calls tomorrow.

	Marlboro Hot Laps: Portland International Raceway by brian @ 19:14:23 - [perma-link] Marlboro_Hot_laps_PIR_2007.avi Sweet! Super sweet! Today I attended a session of Marlboro Hot Laps with Jessica, a friend from rallycross. Apparently I'm the only one she knows with nothing else to do today. We got all this schwag, but its weird schwag; there's no Marlboro logo ANYWHERE. I might even use the backpack for rallies. But the fun started after we put on racing suits and helmets. Up first was a quick 2-lap ride around PIR in a Panoz. It was fast and smooth the first lap, then faster and a little closer to the edge on the second. After that we went over to the drift course for a crazy ride in some Mustangs. It was amazing how they could get the car sliding one way, then flick it right into a slide the other way, with the tires squealing the whole time. Each time the G's flopped my head over like a rag doll, and scooted me side to side in the seat. It really makes me appreciate the 5-point harness in my rally car. I imagine 5 laps was enough for some of the people, but I want more. Only about two and a half weeks until Wild West!
