The only thing I could do was wash my car.

Garage
Wanted to drive the car some on the street so removed -Chamber from setup back to -1 front and Rear and did basic pipe alignment I use at the track if I'm changing anything. which is band a conduit to the rear tires. measure the pipe at the hub on the front wheels, balance with adjustable rear toe-link. measure distance from the face of the tire side to side front and rear of the front tires. then do the same for the face of the tire to the pipe. Verify chamber with a wheel jig and digital inclinometer. No Idea at this point if or when I'll be tracking the car all events are being canceled thru May.

As a side note I have scribe marks on my top plates, Shimmed control arms, and a notebook with measurements to help the process along.

Got it out of winter storage this morning. Put the battery in, connected it, got in the drivers seat, inserted key, held my breath, twisted the key... and it started right up!

Now it's back home in the garage. When I take it out in a little while, I'll reduce the air pressure in the tires. Wish I could put the top down but today's weather is misty, dark, windy but having it home is like a ray of warm sunlight.
