Some of you may know that I decided to skip the Runoffs this year... just not ready enough to justify the trip. So, I took some time to get the car a bit more presentable.

Thanks go to Seanery for the numbers and wide stripe ideas.

Rear suspension design.... complete.... at least conceptually... and I've gathered all the parts. I just need some mill and TIG time to modify the 944 trailing arms.

Time is the real issue here. I've pushed it off until the off season.

I really like that paint color/scheme! What are the wheels? It is hard to tell if they are painted phone dials or ? Look good black...

Sorry, I've been away on business....

Fronts are 15" phone dials painted black (hope to powdercoat them one day). Rears are BBS Mahles 15x7s. I have 10 phone dials and 2 BBS Mahles. 2 sets of the phone dials are silver.

Specs on the Jake motor are straight from the GCR. It will be a legal EP 2.0L. It's up to Jake whether he wants to publish power figures or not.

Looks good, man. I was over at Nashville for the SARRC race and really want to get my car done to come out and play.
