after sitting for a few months, the rado got a chance to stretch its legs again; albeit for short spurts around a curb infested parking lot, it was still a chance to shake things out and see what issues pop up. We had made so many changes to the car this off-season that any number of problems could have come up. We are happy to report that most everything checks out.

We had a small clutch issue, which we assume was air in the lines. We bleed it real quick on the spot which seemed to cure the problem.

We have a small issue of the PC overheating, but think we can solve that pretty easily – it was, after all, 95* out and we didn’t have a windshield with the 8″ black visor to help protect from sunlight.
