Good luck on the upcoming season! I won't be at CMP, but I'll be rooting for you from Alabama, and I'll see you on the grid at RA and Barber later in the season.
Removable passenger seat is staying - no worries. See you later in the year!

I really like that seat Patrick- I sat in it and it fits me perfectly. I'm a little behind you- just started looking for a donor car. Next.
The RaceTech seat worked out very well the first weekend out. Getting in and out of the car with the cage and the head restraint seat takes some getting use to. Are you looking for a 996 to convert?
Thanks Roger. Seeing your 996 at Roebling last year got me thinking about doing the conversion on mine. Are you goiong to have it at RA for the NASA season opener?
Hopefully so...and trying to do CMP next month. But, I broke it this weekend and have to see what is wrong with it.
Ready to go for NASA CMP this weekend. This is the first shot of the graphics package - a bit fuzzy, but I'll get better ones outside this weekend. We'll be in the garage - stop by and check out the project. Big thanks to John at CCW for custom configuring 18x12's rears and 18x9.5's fronts to fit on the car (yes, on a narrow body) - perfect fit, not spacers!

John at CCW is good, it wasn't his first set of wheels that size to squeeze under a 996.
What kind of weight and rwhp are you running ? GTS3 or GTS4 ? Tire sizes ?
Cool ! I built a similiar car but it runs in GTS3, so maybe it's not that similiar. I am curious what number you end up with on the dyno. Let us know.
Dyno came out right at 300 whp, so the car stands at a 10.15 ratio right now. My guess is, after this weekend, we'll add 250lbs and run GTS3.

Thanks Roger. NASA for sure, I won't have my full NASA license until I complete the RA NASA event, so there is no way that I know of to sign up for the PCA race. However, I'd love to do it. The car will be PCA GTB.

Nothin' but love from this driver! The "rage" is a take off from a business venture I'm developing. I'm all about creative expensing!
