If you don't see what you need, I suggest calling FVD. When I was looking they did not show the white in MPH, only KPH. They said, "no problem." They later added the white to the site.
Thanks I found that soon after I posted.

Replaced the battery. $170 from Costco. 11 minutes downtime. No external power while changing - only had to update the clock.
Will swing by my local Indy tomorrow to update the onboard computer since I changed from a wet cell battery to AGM. Easy peasy.

Finally pulled the trigger and ordered a car specific decal from Future Classic. Good quality, but it did take some time to receive. These are 3.5" vs 2.5" like your standard PCA decals.

Took a run with some friends out to Tortilla Flat. Timed it perfectly with minimal traffic going in and fast seating for breakfast!

Canyon Lake

Pretty ragged lineup

Crowds were coming in by late morning

Lots of car nuts out today!

My friend's Miata looks great outside the Saloon.

Drove in the 4th and 5th rounds of the Refrigerator Bowl out at Summit Point Motorsports Park (Saturday) on Main. Car was great in the cold! First time on track in the dry with this car, prior 3 rounds all had steady rain. RE71RS were a bit tricky in the wet with temps in the 40s, but were superb in the afternoon on a dry track. My brain was not so great, put my passenger number on backwards (I'm actually car 84)... but still was pretty happy with being less than 2 sec behind some fast folks I know in their GT3, 718 GT4 and 718 Spyder on Main where power really helps a lot
