My car is coming along also. My cage was built in Augusta by Brian Weeks, Augusta Transmission Clinic. Very pleased with the results.

We got the suspension put together today. We also got the clutch, pressure plate and transmission back in the car. The Rogue shifter from Bimmerworld looks like a nice piece.

very nice. If you don’t mind saying, did you buy that seat new or used, and how much did you spend on it?

It is a new seat, $1,200 ouch! More than I wanted to spend but IMO, this is definately one of those areas where you get what you pay for.

Thanks Al, The car will undoubtedly come down to the wire being completed on time. No time for paint, but I do believe it will be as mechanically perfect as the car can be. Here are a few of the latest pics.

Carter, I’m looking forward to meeting you. Damion, I’m looking forward to humbling you. :wink:

Steve, are the ‘bombs’ enough to keep the sound under track limits do you think? I thought of doing something similar but was afraid the dB would be too high?
