              Looks great as always. I was wondering if you were still around. I see the splitter is still holding up nicely.

                    Thanks guys! Car is sitting on Gaz Gold true coilovers and is stopped by a giant Wilwood setup of my own design. It has a little too much rear brake at the moment but I still have some room to go on my bias valve so I'll keep fiddling with it as the track days come. Next thing is a more solid shifter (maybe the AKG DTM thingie?) and some rear wing action. I have an old Zender M3-style wing but it still needs paint. Also considering some sort of ACTUAL wing but I need to find one that's functional and doesn't look ricey...

                          are your tires mounted backwards?
