Wes we need to get the cars to a track for a shoot out!! or at least photo shoot!

speed yellow, I adjusted the wing based on traqmate data, lap times and top end speeds (best I could do, I dont have a wind tunnel, but I am full of hot air and slept at a Holiday Inn Express before the races)

You don't trust me? We managed to get Bob through the 6 hours at winterfest without setting his car on fire during re-fueling or having a wheel fall off

Tom,

You need to do your shoot outs with cup cars. You're way beyond the rest of us. With 600+ hp/tq and 2900-3000 lbs. that monster should be unbeatable. Car is looking great.

Hope you make it to Road Atlanta soon. I would love to see it and meet you.

Photoshoot sounds fun, track shootout not so fun for me I'm anxious to get the car out and learn it just as you have, but have got a few years worth of time less behind the drivers seat. You are right though, these things are addicting, we're at 3248 right now and looking to get her down to 2,9XX by next year while still keeping it "streetable" for those once in a while drives.

I'm hoping to make it down to PBIR and Sebring once after March, I'm sure you'll be out there at your second home!

Jeff

Wes meet up with me at a Chin event at Sebring and we will do some driving, bring your car I will get you smooth and fast in no time.

my car is still streetable but when the CF doors go on it wont be waterproof. I am just now only looking for FAST. I think I will have to race GT1 in porsche club which is Speed World Challenge car type. I am ready to go, car is super smooth and fast, just needs to loose another 200 pounds.
