Looks real good Jake. The pics do look like cell phone quality, maybe post some better quality shots.

Pleasure is all mine, thanks for the inspiration.

What tires do you typically run and what is the life expectancy?

I have Hoosier R6's on it now. Only have one track day on them. They are great. Don't think they'll last to long though. I'm getting another set of wheels to put ps2's on for the street and PT events.

How many track days will do you expect from a set of tires? What is your "home" track and what's your favorite track? Cant' wait for some track day video!

I think I can 6-8 track days out of a set of R6's. Hopefully more! My home track is NJMP in Millville NJ they have 2 tracks there,Lightning and Thunderbolt. I like Lightning better. I'll be there April 2nd. can't wait!! I just got a go pro HD so I'll get video!!!

Better tire wear estimate than I expected. Glad to hear you've got a TD Fix scheduled, I'll bet you're chomping a the bit to get her on the track. I've got a fix coming Sunday at Fontana with KTM.

With the GoPro suction cup mount you can use one of the adhesive plates and a mounting arm attached as an anchor for a tether line. The GoPro's are also great for monitoring suspension travel, check out your wheel-well and undercarriage mounting options. Also use it to monitor your foot and upper body to improve technique. Rearward facing footage can be a useful learning tool for covering lines and seeing where you're giving up time in sections.........and it gives a looks fast perspective. Here's one from ORP on my little 690 single with a buddy following on his 690: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=obHins69HoI excuse the audio, it's from the old non-HD camera.

Congrats on an awesome car, I'm really looking forward to your video and audio!
