Glad to see it fixed!
If you're willing to share... what are some things you did to make it so light?

Car has 260-270hp and weights 2189 with me in it with 10L of fuel.
Everything has been modified to be light, 1/2 dash, all lexan windows, gutted doors, trunk removed (just has a removable hatch to access diff), hood and deck lid are composite, wing is carbon, etc.
Its 100 pounds or so heavier now as well, compared to when we got it, as we have a huge skid plate up front, some of the new body is not quite as lightened, etc.Last edited by pmachan; 09-20-2016, 07:16 AM.Paul

You will likely need a 318 to get sub 2k, I can't see it with an M20.Paul

Just got back from Mont Tremblant, great weekend. Considering the car was in pieces 2 weeks ago, felt great to have it back out and running strong.
Ran it in 2 separate series, 6 races, 2 qualifying session, 4 practice sessions.
Got pole in GT touring, was leading first GT race and got hit by 2nd place car, taking me out, finishing 17th. Had some damage to fix over night. Next race grids are done by previous finishing position, so next race started 17th, got up to 6th I think in that one. In the other class, which is kind of an unlimited class, I got a 2nd, 3rd, 4th.
Fun weekend, very happy with the car. I'll have some vids this week once I get them edited.
How can I embed these pics?Attached FilesPaul

or a cheats way is to load the images through the Manage Attachments option as you did, before submitting, select Preview Post and copy the image link and then use the insert image option
Eg: Link "http://www.r3vlimited.com/board/attachment.php?attachmentid=110945&d=1474911081"

I believe you may have missed one of the biggest stories of the year affecting image sharing.Originally posted by iwantspeed View Post
Opie, whatever you do, do NOT use Photobucket.
Flickr, among a handful of others, works well.
