After all, it's that old 5 P’s saying… A routine nut & bolt check should be done every time the body clips are off. Inspect the paint marks on all major components. If one doesn't exist, [torque to spec](/maintenance/torque-specs.md), and mark the bolt with a paint pen. All major fasteners should be checked for correct seating while doing so. Not only will this help ensure the car is ready for the track but helps ensure your safety. --- # Agent Instructions This documentation is published with GitBook.
