Considered just doing it yourself? It is not highly technical... that is if you have a place to do it.

Thats the problem Oleg I COULD do 90% of this myself. I don't have the place, or (more importantly) the time to do it.

its okay. at least when this is all done my S will be in tip top shape with no more problems. (knocks on wood).




PS. Its easier for me just to have them do my fender rolling as well... seeing how they'll have the car for a week or more and be doing all that type of stuff any way.

Mid-Ohio was sold, hopefully new owners keep running it as well as the old owners.

i'm sure they will. from the article it seems they have quite the background in motorsports

I was hoping to be able to go there in the future if my girlfriend gets into Michigan for her PhD program in a year or to.

although i am quite bias for Watkins Glen... the Glen is my home away from home being from central new york

I can sponsor you on base (Quantico) if you want. They have most of the tools if not all that you need to do what ever work you need done. No fender rolling tools though.

Let me know, I'm free March 12 and 19.

If you have the money I highly recommend Piper for installing a seat they know what they are doing and its worth the money.

On another note. I have a set of sparco side mounts and sliders. The sliders are brand new in the packaging still. As well as a set of front rotors and hawk brake pads if anyone is interested let me know.
My seats had their rails made at Piper, they are great.
