As Joey said HPDE, hillclimbs....Really a spec e30 car with a modified 2.8 liter M20 as I do not have the time or money to do a spec e30 season I am just intending having fun in the car...

More pics Cage before paint 1.75" 0.095 wall steel tubing

Carbon fiber cheap seats and harnesses will be changed when car is log booked as they are not SFI rated...but super light!...saved 75lb over stock seat
