Mike, have you been to PBIR??
It's nothing like Roebling at all. Roebling the corners work with your and you can make a nice flow corner to corner. Onto and off the back straight the corners are fun too, where it really feels like you just nailed the corner if you get it right. PBIR has no flow at all, enter corner tight wait, wait, wait, wait, exit corner onto a short straight, the 2 corners onto and off the long straight are not much fun to me.

Hi Peter,
Just catching up on this thread and lots of good stuff going on

People change out the amber markers to clear and then others add yellowish green things HMMM! Your wife has a good eye. At least if you go w/ the headlights those blinkers will have something they match On the other hand the car is so bad *** you could mix gold and silver and plaids and stripes and it would still be awesome.

PS Really digging the dive planes...... just what us .1 guys need is more DF coming from you .2 guys

LOL, the yellow will go.
Next week probably.

The speedster stone guards will stay for a bit to see how that helps on track with rubber marks.

Some have suggested a golden eagle on the hood LMAO...

Mancation cleanup finally completed, and finally a clear day in Florida. Not washed.
Painted red lips on front bumper white, changed door pulls, seat belts and Schroth harnesses red to black, removed satin vinyl wrap and clear bra'd entire car with XPEL ultimate, changed out all red for gold, added 2 GT3RS little decals on doors a la GT2RS, added flat black PORSCHE decal on rear wing, added Speedster stone guards (Don't like but good for tire marks on rear fenders) yellow driving light bra, helps on track, but too much attention on street, will change back to clear.
