              Thanks, we are working on it pretty furiously to get ready for PIR on June 30th. Still using the test motor which has nearly 300k on it. I'm noticeably down on power compared to other PRO3s so hopefully we can find a few more with headers and some other bolt on things that are legal for the class.

              The transmission needs to be changed, We lost third gear for the most part. If you watch some of those video's you'll see I have problems with third grinding and popping out a few times. pretty annoying to drive on a track where the only two gears we used were 3/4. Portland is the same except we get to 5th on the front and rear straights

                      Awesome work here.
                      Earlier in the thread you mentioned the prices of your calipers. Where did you get them? I could use a set.

                        Did James make that tach overlay for you? I've been looking for one like that forever.

                          Yes, James made it. It seems like its a pretty straight forward thing to do. Photoshop a new face, print on some nice thick paper and reinstall the needle in the new location. I really like the shop logo he put in for me too.
