Carl, I am glad to see your car finished, It really doesn't look as wide as it did when you had it 3 colors though. Great choice on the color.
Good luck, dude.

Thanks guys, it is actually far from done, but only a month or so from hitting the track. It really depends on the angle you are at, but it is a little more understated now that it is a single color. I think this pic still shows how wide the car is, but I like that it is a litttle understated all things considered. I am not done with the body, there is quite a bit more to come

Unless they've changed the rules, I know of a workaround on the treadwear rating rule... PM me if you're interested.

Matt & Nitzan run the Rx-7 in OTC - the 2004 car was a T-II

Hayashi's always entertaining rehash of OTC 2004.

Yea, it looks like OTC is basicly a public running of the speed ventures events, those guys kick my *** every time LOL... I will make a showing, but the Viper, and the NSX are tough, not to mention the S2000. I cannot beat them in unlimited, but maybe I can quietly enter a "T" class
