First track event is Sebring, either may 1&2 or 15&16, it depends when the BBS arrive.

Drove it home last night through the thunderstorms, car all dirty and tank empty. The car is much better, a bigger difference from my MKI GT3 than expected. Very comfortable and very fast. Also very loud..

A couple more pics..

9x18" and 12x18 BBS, running 255/35/18 and 335/30/18 Hoosiers R6 for now.
Ordered them today, along with the new Torque wrench and pagid yellow pads.. The wait will be for the wheels before I can hit the track.

I'll do an oil change, SRF brake fluid, corner balance and lower it a bit, chip out all the seat belt warning lights, add the CUP front lip and I'm good to go..
For now I keep the OEM camber setting and just play with the sway bars and watch the tire wear...

Are you done with your car (For now)?

We updated the Traqmate software added the HD module and HD Sony Camera. Crappy pics, but you can see the install. The glove box still opens, no cupholders for me, but a cool 3.8RS logo in CF.

I'll post some youtube stuff as soon as I've done a few laps..

Just an aluminum bracket, bent 30 degree's or so? that blots in behind the glove box lid with 2 screws. I like it there permanently, its not in the way..I leave my camera also in permanently.
Had'nt noticed it before, but I guess I can take the wrapper off the gas pedal also ;-)

Great mod overall and nice wrap. Now all you need to do is take it on the track and give it a good spank!
