Great pictures Don! You did a fantastic job with them.

OnRails - damn you got some fat tires. Come to Road Atlanta and burn them off.

Awesome Pictures Don! Man you really were a busy boy shooting all that great stuff!

Thanks L8, OnRails and & TA. I'm tired of looking at pics and web pages for a while and my wife is tired of me working on it till 1:00AM. I'm ready to drive for a change and let someone else take pics. Less than two weeks till ALSCCA Solo School and 4 weeks to RA. I change my brake pads this week and then I have to start watching how I drive. The closer to an event the worse my gas mileage gets. L8, don't tell me you don't know what I'm talking about!

EDIT:
Thanks TA2... you slipped in just before I hit the post button.

TA2, after looking at images of your car, I think you need an aftermarket nose on your car to get it lower to to the track or maybe just a lip. Have you thought about that?

TorqueAholic

I have thought about the lip, naturally about 12 vendors make one.. I just have other priorities but I think I might get it this year. Actually, I should have a few more goodies installed for RA..

Other goodies, do tell.

So far I ordered some seats, a Steeda shifter, and a better setup for my brake cooling ducts.

Stop&TurnFreak

Man, the pictures really make me wish I was there.....bring on Road Atlanta.

Phlash

OK, without me going back and trying to find it....what happened to the 8 with the NC tags????

L8APEX

haha, that is Rob. The tag was already messed up, but the tire imprints on the ***, and the bend in the door was from his first off of the weekend, going into turn 11, I am not sure exactly what happened, I think he was on very cold, used race tires from the Grand AM car, and coming out of the kink, he got a little squirrely, and ended up taking out the #2 brake marker with the drivers door, and bumped the tire wall with the tail end, not really hard, I think it is mostly the dry paint from the tires rubbing off. He in that same off tore a piece out of the passenger side fender well. he had a little trouble with the turn 11 area, I worked turn 11 on Sunday, and he went off 3 times, once before turn 11, right behind TA2(aka TG) and twice after while on his way to turn 12.

Late Sunday, I gave him his souvenir, the #2 brake marker, the lady that works 11 saved it for him, and I figure, he paid for it, he ought to have it. Those brake markers are very thick PVC or some type of plastic, they are very rigid, and I would not want to hit one. Ask Kurt, he has bought one too.

SilverEIGHT

Last year.

L8APEX

yep, he bought his at the Mustang Club event IIRC. But he did not get a big dent, I wonder if they changed what they are made of. That thing was sturdy, I was surprised it did not do more damage than it did.
