Damn. Car looks awesome....as usual. The c/f hood really contrasts well with the yellow and black of the car.

I think I was using this camera:

Sony DSC-F828

It's a really nice camera, however it was dark and I'd never used it before so all I did was point and shoot.

I just drooled all over my Armani. This time, the keyboard was guarded with a cover!

You need to go talk to the Rahal/Letterman Team!!

Very Nice hood ...C/F KnightSports Aero Type hood ... If i am not wrong ... The black from the hood give a good contrast to the yellow of the FD ... One question , What made you place the hood pins behind the headlights rather than near to the front next to the headlights ...
All in All , great install as always from you
Whats your next install gonna be ? side skirts ? Water Injection ? May be a Fuel resevoir ?

ahhaha no, ...i wish :-)

i own a company that does high end internet development and multimedia, so im on the comp all day (and night!!!)

opent tracking is just a hobby, and we use the term 'racing' to freely here, by no means would pretend that i have the skills of a real 'race' drive.

thanks,

I put the hoodpins there because thats where the holes were ont eh car from the previous hoodpins, also it uses the stock latch aswell so it has holding force up front, the pins further back are better distribution of holding the hood down (im just speculating)

hehehe, the next body mods will be:

- cf hatch/lexan rear glass (real weight saving here!!!)
- rear difuser
- side skirts (if they help with areo)
- re gt2 wing (if i can ever afford it!!!)

im out money for this year unless we get another big job/client so this stuff will all be planned for next season.

who?
E-mail David at CBS and include some photos and a Bio. You'll never know where that can lead unless you try!!

I read somewhere a while back that he once owned an FD back in 93-94(?). So he, you, (our community) share common ground.
