^ Are you signed up for the DE? Not that it matters but if you are your car will be on a lift anyway. But then sway bar replacements might be a bit much to accomplish during a tech. But there are alternatives such as the
Sportscar Shop, Inc.
45759 Elmwood Ct, Suite 150
Sterling, VA. 20166
Their business plan includes renting lifts for DIY projects. They also have tools available as well as other auto repair equipment. We had a tech there earlier in the season and their facility is very nice and well equipped.
As a general rule DIY projects during PCAP Tech Sessions are dependent on lift availability and should be relatively simple with short durations and not require a lot of assistance. Obviously the priority has to be inspecting the DE participant’s cars. Remember we don’t make appointments and the queue can vary throughout the tech (9AM – 2PM). In the past a lot of folk have bundled their DIY projects (i.e. change oil, trans fluid, brake pads) so that if needed they can be interrupted if the DE queue gets to long and we need a lift.
That said we might be able to accommodate you. So if you are ok with possibly not being able to get a lift for your DIY come on by. It’s a good opportunity to meet some enthusiasts and check out some nice track/street cars!
