You can get an OE radio delete plate from the dealer for $10 and it is lighter than that aluminium piece.

Was that you that I passed on Broadway extension this morning?

Been re-reading Fixer's RS concept thread again...Dumped another 10 lbs or so at lunch lol. Last lunch break I think I dumped another 40 lbs from the rear quarter panels, speakers, and HEAVY rubber undermatting. The car is actually setting parallel now and doesn't feel like an ***-heavy 911 anymore....

I'm in Deer Creek now, but can always get lost in the McNellie's part of OKC on an extended lunch break.

Well dang! Not too far away. Is the LS 928 in Deer Creek as well?

And yes... McNellie's! Also Tapwerks in bricktown is really good. Haven't been to a local brewery lately as I have been brewing my own.

This car is a daily driver from Deer Creek to down town OKC. I have my track-event every morning lol.
I'm going to get rid of the battery box next, looks like about 10 lbs of steel.

I would love to meet up and see the car if you ever have the time! Might give me the motivation I need to get back in the garage and after my car haha.

A trip to McNellie's removes any and all motivation hehe.
11-1 anytime is good for me.

I though the rear factory brakes would act funny after getting rid of all the rear weight. Not so, she stops even better and doesn't dive the nose. That said, here's the updated tech drawing of the front LS430 adapters for the DIY crew.....have fun

Wasn't me on Broadway Ext at least for the last couple of weeks, my unmistakably Iris Blue GTS is sitting in my garage with a big puddle of blood (power steering fluid) under it begging for attention.

Let me know when and where. Brian Wassinger is also an OKC 928 Rennlister.

Actually Rob and I have met. He gave me the old seats out of his car.

I do need to get over and see that ride now that it's running. Will have to figure out a day and beer always sounds good to me!
