Your fancy footwork is not only good for amazing lap times, but also for keeping the car on course @ T1 under "late braking" 
My RF tire is officially 'skinned,' hah! I thought the HellaFlush camber would've helped, not enough apparently! I also seem to be about 0.5 seconds slower than I was in the red car, but I really don't want to put that Saner bar back in........
Yeah brake pedal to the floor at the end of the front straight was not what I was expecting
Funny thing was the first thought going through my head as my eyes were getting big was "Oh great, I got Ted's kid in the passenger seat, Ted's going to be pissed" then after I got the car rotated I turned to Courtland and send "Do not tell your Dad what just happened!" 
You need to take that RF "flip it and reverse it"!!!
BTW, your car handles real real nice in the Grass/Dirt

Me: Is that your kid in Ray's car right now?
Ted: Yeah
Me: Cool, Ray is pretty legit
Ted: Yeah, real smooth out there
...and then...
It's okay, you didn't get arrested Definitely need to put my game down flip it and reverse it!!
And like I said, the S2K's guts are tucked real high, perfect for grass and dirt, haha!

Tires seemed fine, grip level is higher than the worn R888's but can't remember what the 888's felt like fresh so ...... no drama, linear, squeal but not excessively, really slippery on the in lap but once you get heat in them stay "the same" throughout the session. We'll see how many heat cycles before they go to sh!t or if they wear really poorly
Take it for a spin next time we're out and see what you think.

Doug's shop is out in Duvall, and I'm pretty sure he'll do the install for you, since you're local.

hey thanks for the link agate but, i don't think that will work with my setup. i have a spoon rear diffuser and i don't really want to dremmel a square hole thru my carbon diffuser. i think it was jared that i meet. he had a custom tow hitch receiver that hide's behind his lisence plate. jared can you point me to where i can get something fabbed up like yours?

You could probably talk Doug into doing a slightly altered design. The 3 mounting points are going to be the same no matter where the receiver ends up, and it would just be a matter of bending the bar the other direction.

hey thanks for every1's inputs... yeah if you could dig up that pic of how its mounted behind that lisence plate. that would be much appreciated.... 
i know a welder and just want to ether copy a design, or fab something similar. if it comes down to it i might just have to call doug and see what he's got 2 say.
