Real nice job on the floor panel, the craftsmanship looks great from here. Does it change your feet position on the peddles any different?

thanks,...and nope it doesnt change the the foot position much, maybe a bit since the panel material is thicker than carpet.

don't forget to look out the FRONT WINDOW...

there might be a turn out there. you can see out the front window, right?

BTW, like the cage and the flooring.

good luck,

hahah hey howard, good to hear from ya!!

speeking of looking out the front window, one of the things I made sure on this gauge pod was that it would not block my view , its looks bad int eh angle of the pics i have there, but in the seat i can almost see the car hood over the gauge pod.

to be honest i dont look at them often, the most use i get out of them is when i check the peak after a session.

Looks like you upgraded your roll bar while you were in there. Great job on the quality of all your work.

How much weight do you think you cut by stripping the interior?
