    depends on if you fit :laugh: (seriously, I'm putting the tiny imola s in the passenger's side, ditching the corbeau and getting an evolution s for the driver's side - most people will not fit in it any more)

    He really isn't kidding. I barely fit, with slight chafing on my hips, and i'm not exactly the fattest guy ever. :p



    We drove it for the first time friday night. I played around with it a bit, and decided that with those tires and that motor, the right pedal isn't so much a throttle as it is a Wheelspin Modulator.

    Maybe i'll be able to drive it when it's N/A. :)

    Its a joy to finally see her outside the garage especially in the snow. She looks serious, she means business. Can't wait to hear your thoughts after all the changes. Congrat's!

    hey, that's been my favorite # since 8th grade :laugh:
    talking to graham at the shop one day, he mentioned if you're on the street with a # on your car and you get in an accident or pulled over, your insurance can deny your claim or drop you as they consider you to be engaged in a race - crossing out the # essentially voids it
    apply adhesive, apply flocking. ;)

    And a full cage, numerous other stickers, and other race goodies wouldn't indicate a race car that would potentially be racing? ;) I find it hard to believe the number would be of major concern to an insurance company looking at the car...
