Looks good! I'm looking to pick up a harddog bar for my car soon so I can also make it track ready.

Do you DD your car or drive it often on the street?

How do you find getting in and out of the evo seats?

Have fun at VIR! It's a beautiful track. Which configuration will you be running?

SJS I'm emailing the body shop to get an estimate of when my car will be done. I'll let you know when I get it back. Really interested in testing the pole positions.

Looking good! When are you hitting VIR? I might be there next weekend to meet up with a buddy from back home for a porsche event, but I won't be running my car since it still isn't set up. I still need to order a HardDog bar.

Whats the word on VIR requiring a rollbar? I thought I had read that the S2K was no longer required to have one.

I'll be there with the PCA next weekend. A good friend of mine has a 993 RSR and invited me to the event. That's march 12-14th.

Last I heard VIR required a rollbar on s2000s, but that's not why I put it in. I actually live in MA, so VIR is a long ways away and wont be a regular stop on my schedule.

I don't drive it often on the street anymore, maybe a few times a year (yeah yeah, i know, the rollbar is a skull magnet).

I'm a REALLY small guy, 5'6", 110lbs, so getting in and out is not a problem at all. Larger (or should I say average) sized people might have a little trouble, but not too bad.

The Sparco EVO fits great, a little rubbing on the door panel if you keep it in (I took mine off). I have an EVO 2 seat in the passenger side (to accomodate a wider range of instructors), and that one doesn't fit very well, I wouldn't recommend on an s2k with full interior.

We'll be running the full course.
