getting closer by the day...lexan to go in and radio system still to be installed.


also received rear upper adjustable arms from rock auto...ordered the ac delco brand (hoping for better than e-bay quality) and this is what came in the box with a delco sticker on it...win-win...I think the pair was around $100

first race this past weekend at the Ridge Motorsports park...had a complete clutch failure day 1 after about 2.5 hours...set fast time for the day (70 cars) by over a second....car is an absolute rocket...many were caught totally off guard (including myself)...did a clutch job for day 2...all is good no but had a little contact day 2 and it hurt our rear suspension...need to get it up in the air....biggest issue....brakes...while they worked perfectly we warped 2 sets of rotors in about 15 minute...need to figure out a solution...while it didn't slow us down it was very uncomfortable.



I noticed that a forum member retrofitted 3g tl brembo knuckles...I have a complete standing car here with all of the parts...just worried about suspension geometry...I can also deal with rl calipers...just not sure where to go right now
