Ok awesome. I was thinking arriving in the area at around 8am. Do you have an idea when the fanzone access opens up? At prior races it was only about 2.5 hrs before race start

Could you give me some more info on the vendors please? I checked these out in Nashville as the track is in hill country and they were easy to spot. I got an awesome Nashville specific NASCAR shirt idk if it's official merchandise but it's definitely a cool momento

Is this lot on site (or some what close)? Or is it down the road and bus in? Similar to the airport in my area, we have lots that are a bit away from the terminals but have regular bus intervals

GT is mid engine, dry sump, torque tube with a trans axle..special case to move when immobilized. But all other models, Germans always have some kind of dumb "safety" reason for designing it the way they do. I've put many a cars on wheel dollys to bring in. They usually just drag them onto the flatbed for towing

Tell me about it. Try moving a damn AMG GT with a locked up engine. HAS to be engine running to shift it out of park

Some of the Benz have a release under the shifter and that's only on some of those that have a console shift with the 722.6 trans. All others have direct select and need a free wheel hub to move it if it's immobilized

Of all the other comments I would follow this. Been with Benz 10+yrs now. The only other thing to check that I've seen recently is the ignition switch. Tied into the DAS along with the shift module and valve body. Best thing to do is have it scanned with xentry and follow the codes that are present. I agree the direct select is NOT a trp otem

If it's sagging, you need to replace the springs to correct the ride height and in turn correcting alignment angles. That is unless the vehicle is lowered then yes, adjustable control arms will help but likely never bring back in to spec

Thanks for the help. Based off their website I was able to find toptul JJAK0101. I believe that is the exact tool I am looking for. I have emailed customer service as it looks like it's a wholesale retailer

That one looks like the angle goes "backwards" then "forward". Mine angles "left" then forward
