I'll post some more pictures soon. I don't have that many of the completed car, since we were working on it until the day before we left for the show (and isn't that a familiar story).

Thanks. It makes sense you'd like it, since many of the ideas were taken from your car! And Lillard's, and Stielow's, and Rupp's, et al. This forum, and everyone on it, is a great resource.

Very nice car. Glad you got to enjoy it!

Here's some video from our track shakedown in August. The car had no interior or side glass yet, and leftover media blasting grit was flying all over inside the car. Steve Heino and I split the driving for 6 sessions of a Porsche club track day at Portland International Raceway (the local Porsche club runs a great track day program). Until the trip back from Vegas, this was almost all the seat time I had!

Steve Heino is driving this advanced session - he's not only a talented mechanic and fabricator, but an excellent driver too. Neither of us was pushing the car that hard for these sessions, but you can see the track-prepped Porsches and Z06s get pwned anyway. Notice the g force readings from my TraqMate - consistent 1.1 to 1.2 G in steady state corners. That's a tribute to the grip provided by the DSE suspension and BFG R1 tires.

Steve and I do 5 or 6 track days each Summer, at PIR and Oregon Raceway Park (great, great track). It's great fun to blow the minds of the late model Porsche and Vette owners with our "old school" cars. But its not simple to build a car that will live and perform optimally for 5 sessions of 25 minutes several times a Summer. Cooling, heat protection, brakes, aerodynamics, etc. If we did some unique things compared to other builds, it was in these areas.
