Well today was somewhat productive . THE SILVER SIDE ROCKER STRIPES ARE BACK ON THE CAR ! Along with the number rounds and class category stickers . Oh did I mention the Recaro seats are in - Pro Hans for the driver and Profi XL on the passenger side . I cancelled the Crow seat belts and got SHROTH Profi-II-Hans 6 point belts instead  ( in silver of course ) - much better belts . I'll try and posts some pics soon of the progress .


Well here are some more pic's, :camera:  there late due to the fact that I have been in the clinic getting my whipping wounds tended to. LOL :doh:
More to come soon Cheers JJ

According to the latest rules ; " Tires:285-295 X 30-40 X18" allowed . ALL TIRES ON CAR MUST BE THE SAME SIZE. Tires must be DOT approved. " So I'm reading that as a NO . Bummer .

Surprising - That's a picture in front of my house ( did you notice the blue convert in the garage - my daily driver ) Maybe they will stop by again and bring sponsor $$$ :hysterical2:  That pic had to be around a month ago - needless to say I missed the season opener deadline - cage should go in this month along with other fabrication / welding .
