GHIT Builds an Engine and a Trans???

– With a Ton of help

GHiT 0434: GHiT Builds an Engine and a Trans??? – With a Ton of help

Our engine gave up at our last race and we needed to (finally) start prepping for real for the upcoming 2023 season. As everyone knows, we started knowing (less than) nothing about car repairs and this week we took on our biggest challenge to date, pull the entire drive train in our 1993 Honda Civic EG Hatchback, build an engine and transmission, and replace it into the chassis for a rapidly upcoming test day. Hear how things went and a ton of learning was had by all, even Bill. Special huge thanks to Chris and Chrissy from the Everyone Racers Podcast and The Three Pedal Mafia for their help and guidance and another thank you to Scott McMichael for coming up and assisting and learning with us. Further proof that anyone can do this as GHiT builds its first engine and transmission.

The Best Track Car

DwD 0414: The Best Track Car

On this episode, the first Dominating with Dawson of the new year, we try to start of with an easy one and not stir up the internet in any way. Naturally, we chose to define what is the best track car. We approach this from the perspective of a first timers’ ideal track car to an intermediate level track car. We also cover many of the more important considerations to take into account when choosing your best car.

If you think of a better car or cars, please let us know and we will include this in another discussion in this area. Also, please be warned, Ben and Bill were joined with Jeremy, but all of them were unattended. No Jen and No Vicki leads to these debacles, lol.

Please let us know if we missed something or if you have any questions at [email protected].

After having a few inquiries at the track and via social media, we begin to review what we are up to and working on as a team and some of the projects and issue we are working on. This episode is a partial laundry list of some of the more significant near term items we are working on or pondering, as well as a few of our goals going into the approaching offseason. At this point, we consider these types of episodes a work in progress and expect them to come out less than weekly, but we hope they help everyone. Also, please feel free to ask any questions on things we are working on or any topic we may be able to help you with. We hope you enjoy the episode.

We recorded this a few days ago and then were officially hit with Covid. Sorry for the delay and that explains a bit of the lower E than normal for this one.
