How many nights on the couch did you get for that one lol.

My wife enjoys riding at out track with me and is a bad influence sometimes, I don't think she could have taken as much of that as your wife did.

The body kit on this evo probably makes it look too much like something else.

Driving and learning how to race (or at least stage 1 of racing) was incredible. Hoping I can get out to stage 2 next year where it's 90% lapping, ends with an actual race among the students and gets you your competition license (yep, I know there are far cheaper ways to get your competition license).

I'm pretty sure that's not an LRP rule, but is usually up to the group that is running an event, or more specifically their insurance carrier. This usually pertains to suction cup mounts. I've run a GoPro on my car, mounted outside on the nose of my Evo using GoPro's adhesive mount w/ a ziptie threaded thru the wire mesh in front of the grill as an extra precaution, with no issues. You wouldn't want an item coming off a car with the potential to damage following cars, so it's for the best to hold outside cameras to a higher standard of secure mounting.
