Is it in the bulkhead or the tower? Either way I would pick up an extra whatever it is in case you can't save it.

This should be easy fix. Simply just take the whole left and right top shock tower mounts off. You will get the broken screw out this way.
If not....I have a special drill bit which takes care of this kind of problem.

Yeah take the tower mounts off and you should have a small amount of the screw sticking up. With a dremel or a pair of pliers you should be able to get it out.

Yesterday was a blast! I had so much fun and I learned A LOT. Thanks to everyone who helped me. Eric, you saved my life in the first heat. I really wish you could have gotten your steering worked out a little better. I cant wait to race with you again. Jeff, that battery was great! It felt good to have a good bit of punch in the car. Kumpol, thanks for all the advice over the course of the day. It really helped me a lot in the mini race, and even more in the touring car. Also, thanks for charging my pack too. Me and Shaun really need to get an extra charger. If there is anything I can do for you guys, just let me know. I cant wait for the next race!

@Melvin: Let me know what gears you need for the mini and I'll bring them to the next race if you want.

I had fun too, that was a blast. Despite the things that went wrong I still was having a good time. Sportsman class is really a good class, good competition. I'm glad that I was able to do well when I did actually race

We really need to do something about the guy telling jokes during the Sprotsman race though!!!!

Arun thanks for taking a look at my car and making adjustments, Tyler thanks for the servo, Melvin thanks for the radio crytals, and Shaun Mac thanx for fixing my light tree and equalizing my batts. Everyone helped each other out all in the name of fun!!!!
