I was just looking over the list again and noticed there are only five of us listed by name the rest are backed by shops/race teams! Haha

Looking forward to seeing you and the car in a few weeks! And I wish I was backed more! Haha. Privateer budgets FTW.

I look at it the other way around. Look at all these guys and big wallets. There's a good reason my RS remains stock. That's as far as my budget goes. Btw did you decide what size tires you're going with?

We are trying to run EVOlutionary’s DHP splitter for the race but for some reason the Voltex bumper he has and the one I have are not the same. So last night we took them two apart and made one. More on the splitter later




I also picked up some Whiteline end links for the front and rear. I should be able to get the car off the scales tonight and get an alignment

Looks like this is going to be one hell of an event; can not wait to see how it goes.

Good luck Dave!

Evolutionary and I got everything dialed in as best we could and got the car on the alignment rack.


We had to get some bracing for the DHP splitter so we took it off Jarrod’s car.


Test mounting the splitter



Then we bled the brakes with some AMSoil brake fluid

Thanks! I think the car looks really aggressive with the wing and splitter. I hope to have the bumper and splitter on together in the next few days!
