How do you turn the wheels?

I'm assuming you don't drive her around most of the time with the slicks on?

Low 13's, high 12's prolly. I'm sure it'll get lower too, but the way it is now that'd be my guesstimate.

All this stuff and my recent mini-successes with the EMS really make me wanna run my car.

Still waiting for dyno to open up. We are schedualed for next week but with the holidays who knows. It's just sitting in the shop collecting dust and waiting to be tuned. I can hardly take it either... trust me ROCK is tired of me pushing to go for both the drag car and the stage two car.

Hear that people! Stop buying stuff for a little while from RRM so that they can dyno the car!

Or not...

Chances are you won't get a message if it's a smiley and nothing else or a "bump".

And that'd be me. Pretty much anypost that's nothing than a bump, which about 3 extra pages of this thread used to be, get axed. When something relevant with the car happens, I'm sure they'll be more than willing to come forward.

Update. We worked on last items to prepare for dyno and feature in Import Racer. Put a CF hood on the car and added some sensors that we will need for tuning. We are gettting close for sure.

Hey, Rob. Just out of curiousity (and I'm sorry to stray a bit), but how difficult is it to make a cutout in a CF hood for something like one of your Carbontrix scoops/vents? I'd really like to do that this spring/summer, but I don't know if it might cause the fabric to unravel if it's not resealed/resined.

Super easy to cut out... just use a hole saw on one corner and then a little zip saw all the way around. You take the vent an make a template of its inside to trace on your hood. Just place some plastic under the hood to prevent chips from getting on your motor and all over. After cutting i lightly torch/burn the edge of the freshly cut insulation then i mask things off and just spray paint the edge black so you cant see it and it looks like it was meant to be. Only takes like an hour if your super critical and get it centered, etc.
