Looks incredible, very nice set up. Just wish the AIM had the software like Traqmate to overlay with GoPro video.

I have 1mm front toe as well, and with new tires, the car is on rails. But since Greg set my car up as well, it is no surprise. I do have a generally more aggressive set up, though, with 800/1000 springs, and F-3.7R-3.0 camber. I only wish it were easier to get to him, as I'd avail myself of his services more often.

Dashware probably works with it, and it's only $50. I have used it as an alternative to Traqmate's software for GoPro video integration. It isn't plug and play but setup wasn't too bad. Their site says it works with AIM.

Nice set-up, indeed.

I found that my data antenna would not pick up satellites (VIR) when initially on the undersurface of the hood, but once sats were picked up with the unit on top of hood, I could put it back on the underside and continue to get sat signals. Go figure.

I also remounted my display dash (G2X) higher off the column so that I could see the warning lights, should any come on. I once lost a serpentine belt and the first indication was my GEN light going on. Since the water pump runs on the same belt, pulling over promptly probably saved my motor. Since then I hate the thought of having that happen while on track and concentrating on the road and not seeing the light come on behind the data display. Just a thought.

Hoping car is back together in time for VIR. Maybe meet you there.

Did you buy that bracket, or was it custom made? If custom, where could I get the fasteners that attach the bracket to the steering column piece? I'm using velcro to hold my Traqmate display in that location. I'd much rather make (or buy) a bracket like yours, but I don't recognize those fasteners.
