I've seen pics of 911 with Pilots on lifting front wheels so yeah, actually I wouldn't be surprised if he does pull the wheels! Post some daylight pics man, it's got to look awesome!

3 day light shots (from the iPhone sadly though) from this weekend. There is a little bit of a fitment issue, not due to brakes. It's more of a suspension issue. It has been taken care of already. The car looks killer. I took out the front driveshaft to get ready for it. With the 27" tire I should be able to do 160+ in 4th gear, which is MORE than I need. The reason for the taller tire is because on my current tire I think I'll be out of gear even at 7800RPM.

Looks bad ***. What set up are you running for the road course part of the competition?
I have to say, I would be a little concerned about the axles with DR's and your power level. Please bring some spares! Good luck out there.

Luis I won't be doing the road course because of 2 reasons sadly. First I can't get out of work another day, and the second MAJOR reason. I am AFRAID of road courses. Going fast in a straight line has never scared me, but you add turns and other drivers into the mix it really scares me LOL! Plus all I have for suspension is H&R Coil Overs so it wouldn't do real good in the turns

I think you are probably right on the axles, because they are still stock. I plan on riding the clutch out a good amount and hoping for the best. I mean that's all anyone can really do.

That... or axle carnage.. We shall see

I think the CCWs complete the BIG NASTY Package you have been touting Chris

I'm about an hour from Omni sadly, but I'll be at the parents house (since my garage is full) doing the final prep on the car the next two nights. If you all get bored and want to do some driving hit me up!

Is the yellow car here already?
