I'll be by this afternoon. Maybe I can convince your secretary to give me the keys for a back road shake down since I know that you are in Boston at the moment. Maybe keys are not required?

I have been in a few race cars. Those seats are def not my size. If I were to end up in a firey crash in that car I would want the safety people to add more gasoline to the fire, get it over with cuz no way could I get out in a hurry.I think my hips fell asleep.
Sound is SICK.

Looks fun! Do you mind if I ask who constructed your roll cage? I'm exploring experienced fabricators.

I saw that listing for the speed gt red car...really great man...


btw, I would put the wipers back in for sure...they can definitely be useful for that random HAILSTORM at the Toe of the Boot at Da' Glen.

I was thinking about the wipers also. I think that they would destroy the lexan windshield no? Maybe just rain-x. The car also has no side windows at all, just nets.

thats fine, I would STILL get some wipers though...they shouldnt scratch the lexan...cup cars have wipers and they dont get scratched...I would use rainx ANYWAY though.

This may be a dumb question, but do the cup cars come with a sequential gearbox?

And, it may be overkill, but do you go to the PCA autocorsses at Ft.Devans at all?
