I'd really love to be able to drive the car home. I'm at VIR, about 8 hours from home. Hoping the damage isn't worse than what I've already noticed. Lost a lot of coolant, but I'm thinking that came from the broken overflow on the thermostat housing. I'll inspect it all better in the morning.
I'm also going to check out AMP billet thermostat and a Gates RPM belt to hopefully avoid any issues in the future.
I think the crankcase vent tube that is broken is part number 12687313, but it looks to be discontinued. Anyone have any idea if that's the right part number and if there's a new part number that may have replaced the discontinued part?

I’m surprised you were able to find the parts you did! Nice work.
Make sure the broken belt didn’t get entangled into the other belts, messing them up. That happened to me.
Best of luck getting this all figured out! Give some thought to a trailer to bring your car to the track going forward lol…
