It's looking great. When do you plan on doing your first race with her? If you run at Barber or Road Atlanta, I may try to make it over there. I've been wanting to run those tracks and seeing your car would be an added bonus.

On the painted BBS centers, you should not have painted the surfaces where the wheel halves mate to the wheel center, and where the lug nut touches the center. You can run into issues later on including cracking the center.

Can't wait to see you on the track!!!
How's moma doing? I won't be long before you have another baby. This one will cry
Moma's about to pop! June 6th so it's Roebling for me for awhile. See you in May!!??

I'm doing the NASA event at Roebling in May for sure. Gotta stay close with the new baby on the way. Let me know if you can make it.

Thanks CJ! You can imagine how excited I am. The X51 has one weekend on it. It's practically brand new. I may have it this weekend with the 3.6 in it for testing/playing at Roebling.

No wonder it wasn't ready for Road Atlanta! Looks great.
Thanks Mark! Why don't shoot down to roebling this weekend. Friday is autometrics day and florida crown is here for the weekend. A good chance my car will be ready to run, but without engine and exhaust mods.
Enjoy your 996 Rog. The guys at Autometrics built mine (see avatar) and I absolutely loved it prior to selling her and moving on. They did a fantastic job and had the set-up close to nailed on day one. Enjoy.

Yup, very pleased with my choice. Never heard one negative thing about autometrics and now I know why.

I guess you won't make the Barber Club race in June either, with the baby due. I guess we will have to catch up at VIR or Daytona for sure.
Ok Mark. But let me know if you do break away before then.
