Spring's here, let the fun begin...........
 
For the first time in 4-5 years, the old girl runs and drives under it's own power. A little jump start and filling one tire with air is all it took and she idled at a nice comfortable 2000 rpm and drove down to my shop without a hiccup. She's going under the knife for a few small things and some more weight reduction, but no major surgery needed this year. And to think, it's not even season opener at the tracks yet. :D

I'm shopping for some new rims as we speak. Baby needs new shoes.

Bronze 16x8 would look pimp.

Looking good man! BTW, from what I've gathered, if you're still looking for those same rims as I am, apparently the only color they even have anymore is black. That's the scoop I got right from the manufacturer! Dick heads!

Looking good! 4-5 years? I saw you at hollywood video last summer and you had that car parked outside?

I meant running at the beginning of the year. Twice I've been building a new motor at this time because I got upgrade-itis over the winter. This year I'll stick with the 2.4 I built last season.

I like the hood too. Steve, you must have just put that on over the winter. I don't remember it being carbon fiber when you were at the Rock in October.

Re: Spring's here, let the fun begin...........
 
Yeah, I put it on last summer. It's getting painted real quick though, I'm not into the rice thing. Plus it's not stealth enough for my taste.

I need rims badly. 16x8 Volks would be the bomb yo, but I ain't got that kind of scratch.

I was going to say paint it.

Hey just noticed you have EVO seats what do you think about them?

Spring, great, time to work on getting my car to actually turn over, stupid f*cking clusterf*cked security system.

I like them, very supportive. They are a little higher on the sides than I originally thought. I actually have to drop into them just like climbing over the side bar on my cage. I'm anxious to see how much support they offer when I do a road course this year. I'm guessing I could pretty much flip the car over and not move with those seats and the 5-points. Plus they're really light. :)

Looks very nice. I am assuming this is the same car that was at the cook out last year but not the one that was in your shop when my mom bought the car from you? Do you have 2 of the same color car?

Glad to see it going again!
