Thank you sir. Thanks.. I'm going as far as removing the bumper in lieu of a bash bar.

You ever considered adding a vent in the bumper like that ragtop cobra Griggs built?

Did you fabricated that bash bar?

Nice. I would love to be able to compare my driving with Randy's. Any plans on doing Chuckwalla, Buttonwillow or AutoClub next year?

Probably. I try to squeeze in 6 track days a year. Last time I went to Buttonwillow, I ran a very sloppy lap of 2:03, and then had a huge off in the bus stop. That's when I decided to get a roll bar at the very least.

One of the few videos from yesterday. I will upload the rest later. Not the most successful session, missed the downshift a couple of times, causing wheel hop. At about 12:30 mark, the car started to run hot, so I coasted a few laps to cool it down.

Being out of state, I have to plan my road trips early.

You don't have to base your track days around my schedule. Just come out and have fun. And if you run into a white mustang that's pretty quick, and a driver with a slight accent, then all the better.

Oh I'm going to them both. Those are just the NASA AZ cross over events. Would be cool to see a fellow SN95 running.

So, I had a chance to throw the car on the scale tonight. With a full tank as it sits, it's 3300 lbs. Stripping the back of the interior, trunk, and adding a roll bar and harnesses, and I'm 60 lbs lighter than my last weight in of 3360 lbs. That's definitely encouraging, because I thought I was going to break even.

Is that with you in it? I am 3500 with me and 3/4 tank. Guy I run with has his 1997 Cobra down 3100 with him in it and cage.
