        Stop teasing, we want more pics lol. Looks very nice now though, liking that front splitter too, makes the front of the car look very mean.

        Race cars always start to come to life as soon as the decals go on, bet you cant wait to use it now :-)

              FINALLY!!! - Took the old sunroof roof off and replaced with a sunroof delete skin to meet class regs, now ready for next weeks first race. I took it out on a shake down to the local track this week and other than a small fuel leak and needing to re position the seat she ran perfectly. Roll on the first race

                    Well, just got back from the first race of the year and te car ran well. The addition of the front splitter certainly helped initial turn in on a couple of the fast sweepers and overall my times were 7 tenths faster than my previous best (who says stickers dont help ). Managed a 3rd and a second in class although should have done better. Here is the class battle in full heat
