Good luck on the F1 track. It's going to be awesome running it even though I like the smaller ClubSport track because it's more technical and doesn't depend on speed.

I got my Champions during the summer, and at that time, the F110 was not compatible. I'll pass by to chat for sure and check out your car.

Iloke the look, but what is important is whether you do. Great to take a chance and see how it turns out. Black is done lots of times, but orange? Good going!

May I ask what 19" tires you are using for the track?
Lol, I was never a big fan of posers .. There are many fake GT3 (Bodykit, Rims) here .. I am not to keen of them. And I am sure more people will attempt if they think its a GT3RS in their sites..

I am going to be running a set of Michelin Pilot Sport Cups (Extra Sticky) .. My Kinesis have the Pilot Sport PS2.

Nicely done. I think an orange stripe would set it off.

Some of my friends thinks it looks great .. others just laugh uncontrollably.

I personally like them, they look great as my second set of rims (for the track), I wouldn't have done it if I didn't have the aftermarket rims. FWIW, the picture do not do them justice..

oh man, did anyone ever tell u that ur engine is gone. look there is no engine in the hood. it's full open.

You should see the look on the faces of security people when they tell me to open my trunk!

Here are some updated pictures from the Bahrain F1 Circuit:
