I posted some info in the first post. Just drove the car home. Had already forgot how great these aircooled cars are! Just awesome! Enjoyed every second behind the wheel!!

The decals will come out, don't worry.

Went out for a little drive in the archipelago with my daughter. Not sure which one enjoyed it more as we both had a huge grin on our faces the entire run.

If you are going to drive that car on the street, and particularly if your are going to put your daughter or any other passanger in the car, you need to double if not triple wrap the roll cage in foam padding. Other wise you are risking serious injury.

Thanks for your concern! It is much appreciated!

Yes, I know it's a real risk for myself and any adult sitting in the front. With regards to my daughter riding shotgun, there is just no way she could reach any of the bars. I know the seat belts will stretch a lot in an accident and so will the human body but there is nothing in a 2 foot radius from my daughters head.

Plan is to install padding in there as would be required in order to participate in any racing series.

They are RSR skirts from FVD.

It's midsummer festival in Finland and we are all just drinking and bathing in the sauna. But i couldn't help it to spend a little time in the garage (haven't really had time to be there lately). So this is the result after 1.5hrs and 3 beers. (Including putting the GT2 on the lift and removing the CAE shifter, before putting the RSR on the lift).

The shifter feels soooo nice. Can't wait to sober up and do a test drive...
