[QUOTE="Gary R.;11175067"]Car is sweet rick! One thing I would do is pull the passenger seat, that halo really blocks your vision. For DE's it's not a big deal and I can appreciate the added safety if you plan on taking people out.. Gorgeous car...[/QUOTE
Thanks, Gary
Hey, that's a brand new seat you want to pull out!
I do a fair # of ride alongs and wanted the seat to have same level of protection.
Now if I were racing...

Gary - That is so true about the great cars there; very inspiring. Was tempted to attend but its kind of a ways from Sterling. Thanks for the nice comments about my car. I haven't seen the finished product yet!
Dave - welcome home. Glad you had a good trip. I expect we can travel to Danbury on the 15th. With luck I can even haul the car back.

car looks amazing in person. a shame to put it on the track. I'd just park it in my living room.
pics don't come close to doing it justice.

I was talking with our older son last night telling him it was silly to spend the extra on the graphics, but really, it is just a few % of the total cost, so why not?
Glad you like it; me too.

Not a wrap, which would be the whole car; instead it is individual pieces of vinyl (like decals).
You and Nat are welcome to ride along!

Rick,
this came out sooo awesome! The only thing I would now recommend is clear bra on the front and behind the wheel wells.

I was just looking over the specs from your first post. It looks like you held to the original plan in most ways. Did you do anything on the intake or exhaust sides? Looks like a different muffler. Software? Did you get a final weight?
