I sent the car off on it's way to Vegas this morning. Could've spent another 8 hours cleaning all the road grime, from street driving it all the time. Oh well, it hasn't looked this good since I've had it.

The Tigercage turned out real nice, the car feels totally different with my very limited time driving it after installation. Can't wait to feel it on track.
I didn't do a bunch of major changes like, well, most of the other cars that are going did (or are still doing..). I prefer to run what I know. There is a huge comfort in that for me. I could've put the new mill in, changed the clutch and the tranny to hold the power, put a DBW pedal in and a new computer, exhaust, cooling system...but for what? A position or two better? I'd probably do worse since I'd be trying to learn it all again in one event.

A few pics I took last night

I think you were smart to leave it as is Aaron, I went to SCCA Nationals with a new untested set-up and paid the price for it in the CAM Invitational. It was a simple change that got the car driveable on course again, but I still then had to readjust my driving a bit to the new setup once it was dialed in. I didn't really get fast again until the last day I was there.

Car looks great, I'm sure you are gonna have a blast out in Vegas with it.

Looks great Aaron, Will have to catch up next week in Vegas.

Probably a good choice not jumping on the bandwagon of the SEMA trash and make a bunch of changes. Like you said then you would have through all of what you worked on over the season out the window. Good luck out there next week

Heck yeah Paul, see you out there! Hate to throw the season away, it was way to expensive to do that! Thanks

I am sure it is somewhere in your thread...I assume you made the coil mounts? Any pics?

Payton, yes I did. Not sure I posted any info or pics though.
Looks like this is all I have. They were made from solid billet.
