New tires, I am trying our Michelin Pilot Super Sports.
and installed my favorite steering wheel! Momo Monte Carlo!
and I installed Binary seat lowering brackets. That was a dramatic change. it will take some getting used too.
pics from this week.

How do you like those brackets?
I bought them, I havent installed them. I need to fix my seat back as well. It leans back to the right because it's got that broken piece internally. Uhg.

Couldn't believe it, stripped out that little bolt that holds the power steering hose to the top of the passenger fender motor mount. An hour of tapping the threads and looking for another bolt and fixed. Then after mounting and wiring the starter I realized I hadn't put in that little piece of tin that goes behind it. Then............on to the next screw up.

I'll be honest it was drastic change, but I'm only 5'8.
but I love the driving position, I am loving this mod so far!

How bout helped the guys from RS Motorsports get back into the One Lap of America competition.

They broke a crank at the race in Memphis on Sunday(?) and pulled an all nighter getting down to our place in Tampa. We had a spare engine from our old car And did a swap out with them.

Happy to say they are sitting in Sebring now waiting for tomorrow's next leg of the event.

Put clear side markers on the car to finish out at least the lighting portion of the 7 look.
