Car looks great I have the identical still sitting at the port for four weeks now with no ship date as of yet.

The Collection is a nice dealership lot's of high end stuff in that mall steinways, Ferrari's, 200k Italian kitchens etc.

Have the Euro roll cage might be selling it if it does not work with the standard seats.

mooty you forgot that I'm switching to cup car brembo rotors for track usage. here is what I have planned in chrono order

clear shield thing
seats
bar/harness
cup car rotors/ pads/ hats
lighter/louder exhaust

then once I really get a feel for the car on track and deserve it-
18" wheels/tires
tracky alignment
rad custom helmet

I figured that I might as well ruin my current tires before actually swapping in the 18" ones. by next year this time I should actually be fast in the car. but I'll probably still be slow

I would move the track alignment a littler bit higher on your list.

zico that's some really good work on the photoshop!

cway- I've only got 3 more weeks to get drive the car then I leave for 6 weeks (spring training)...and the chances of me getting all the stuff done is very low in that 3 week window- I'd rather drive it in current set up than have it in the shop waiting for everything...

so the plan is to wear out these tires tracking it in the next 3 weeks, then when I leave- drop it off with Ruf (they store my cars while I'm gone and keep them polished/charged/maintained) and they can install all the stuff by the time I get back.

not to seem **** but when I plan- I really really plan.

CJ

Congratulations. I am pleaased that you were able to purchase an orange one. Was it used or brand new? I assume you drove the southern route on 10. Lots of 70 mile speed limits along there. Did you take your valentine?

You need to drive it and kill a few bugs. I have

CJ,

No need to leave it at Ruf, I've got plenty of garage space and I won't charge you...But, you'll need to leave the keys in case I have to "move" it..I could also help you get through some of that rubber on the 19's so you can switch to 18's after spring training..
