I call her the White Stripper... Like all my previous cars!

Please have patience with me over the next few months as I ask questions

Really looking forward to taking her to the track and doing some performance enhancements (suspension tuning, exhaust, brake cooling).

Picked her up last weekend in Atlanta and drove her home to Cincinnati!

Congrats, always nice to see more Ohio people. Bring it to Mid Ohio next weekend for OVR's DE. That should be a nice way to get the feel for it!

This afternoon I was going to look for upcoming track days... Next weekend might be too soon... Need a helmet for instance...

Also what track prep do I need to do to the car?
It has yellow pads and fresh dealer fluid.

I was about to say...that looks like the front of Hennessy Porsche. (If you got the car through them, you have just picked up an outstanding vehicle).

Congratulations, it looks like you got a beauty!! Where in Ohio are you from? Take a few more pictures of when you get a chance.

deutschmick

Congratulations!

I would imagine it had radiator screens installed at some point. If not do asap.

Actually Jim Ellis Porsche... I need to call Hennessy and get the service records.
Living in Cincinnati. From Bogota, Colombia.
Yes, rad screens are on the list!

How did you get through 10+ previous track days with no helmet? Get a helmet. Get Motul or SRF brake fluid in there. Depending on your skill, you may wear through street pads in a hurry.

Helmet is expired.
First rear engine car so I need to take it easy!

Other issue is I don't have any tools at the moment.

Seats and harnesses should be installed if not already.

I have the same car! Congrats! I love it on the street, but still figuring it out on the track. Here's what I have done. I don't like mods, so I'm trying to stay as stock as possible.
-Swapped seats to the GT2 Carbon Seats.
-Added the Sparco harness bar
-Added Brey-Krause sub bars under seat
-Added 6 point harnesses.

You will definitely need racing brake fluid.
Stock pads wear ok, if you run with TC off. With TC on, it eats the rear pads alive!

I have switched from the stock MPSC N-spec tires which are just ok, to Pirelli Trofeo R's. I'm still evaluating that, and may switch to 18" rims and Nitto's.

From a pure estetics point of view you will also want to add the SharkWerks center muffler bypass. The sound is soooo much better. Even better is to add the inexpensive remote control switch from Carnewal (SW has them too) that allows you to control the exhaust to be fully loud or fully quiet vs. stock where it switches at 3k or 4k RPM.

Enjoy!!!

great job, you will find yourself looking in the garage in the middle of the night to be sure the car is still there and its not a dream
