Run it out the passenger side, down long the rear window edge and thru the body panel gap between fender and engine lid. Then zip tie to the rear tow hook so it is about 2" away from the tips. Agree a little more speed would be nice but the flow and elevation changes are perfect.

How do you make it sound like that? TELL ME EVERYTHING!

That's very good driving BTW for your first day these with some wet, but I knew that already from running nose to tail with you at Road America

Peter - all you need is this microphone (less than $20) and a GoPro2 or 3 with mic input.
Amazon Amazon

Thank you for the nice words. Im sure I can squeeze another 2-3 seconds a lap out of my times with a bit more track time or if I knew what I was doing

A very, very fun track that is easy to drive. I'll be back again. Alabama PCA just posted their schedule for '13 at Barber; March, July, and December

Kyrocks has a 4.0 wheel. Mine is a base wheel recovered for slightly greater thickness and added the red strip.
