The new look. These are the number from the passenger side. I have already stripped the wrap off it as well and have another set of numbers on order to match. I kinda like the cleaner look.

Well I need to come up with some cash for the Business so the SRF is going up for sale. It will be easier to sell than this one and it doesn't have near as much sentimental value.
In the meantime, I had another run in with a tire barrier as I was blazing around the track. I'm now within a second of the personal best of the quickest guy in in my class at Hallett and I know this car is capable of matching it. But that means riding the edge on every corner. My last session with my driving coach he said I needed to quiet my hands and quite "sawing" so much through the corners. While it is giving me more grip and lowering my times, I've also started spinning more as I was using the sawing to react quicker and prevent the spins.
Here's a few pics of the damage from the tire wall. I'll try and get some video posted up tomorrow.

Definitely not hurt and damages are going to run $75 to weld the exhaust and $50 for a salvage radiator. There is a little plastic nub that sticks out of the radiator. Every time the radiator takes the slightest hit, the nub breaks off and the radiator springs a leak. This would be the third time it's happened to me. I keep a spare set that I need to start taking to the track with me. Although my track does are getting cut back considerably until business gets back on track.

Tough break, but it looks like an easy fix compared to the earlier shunt. I like that exhaust setup. Who makes those small muffler cans? I may have a local shop fab up something similar for noise-restricted events.

Magnaflow 14158 ($260 a pair on Amazon). They are 2.5" free flow so there is no restriction but they do a nice job of knocking the noise down from crazy loud to just loud.
