Nice! I think I'm going to make this a "winter" (LOLFlorida) project. I've always wanted to dosomething like this, and I think it will look really nice, especially since I kept my soft top tray.

That's a remarkable amount of days on your rear rotors. By my math, if you're doing 5 sessions a day, you'd have done at least 16 days on them, which is pretty nuts. I may just have to pull the trigger on a set...

The car performed flawlessly at Thunderbolt. I drove it 240 miles miles each way to the track from Northern, VA without any hiccups. The RC1s have 38 heat cycles and 2600 miles on them now and are still performing well. I placed 2nd both days to by .2 seconds to someone on Hoosiers. I got 2nd last event as well to a Hoosier car by only .05.

It's time to get Hoosiers!

Very interesting progression, really like the way the car has come along and your vehicle choices. Where did you get your track numbers from? Really like that style.

I feel petty good about my 1:33.xx on Friday with my staggered R-S4s and some lowly Konis.
