Im sure you will keep us updated, but I (personally) cant wait to see you racing. You and Evan at one event will be awesome, especially for the more new members. Anyway, a question that has been on my mind...how do you expect to do in H4. Also, what do you plan on to compete later in life? Content with H4, or what?

Who knows... I think world challenge or grand am cup would be pretty damn cool but I dont know where I'll end up down the line. If its just H4 and club racing, I'm ok with that though.

you may have built the car to win... but there is a little peice of metal still missing in your motor Wink better start looking for new short blocks and an engine stand donkey!

- .RJ - 11-30-2005

I got the stand Wink

- Kaan - 11-30-2005

ok lets find you a nice block that needs lots of love... and get on it! lets really build the car to win!

- .RJ - 11-30-2005

- Kaan - 11-30-2005

I'm 90% sure its wedged harmlessly in an oil drain hole Smile I'm not worried at all.

Tow hook/loop installed. I need to cut a hole the bumper cover for the loops to fit through.

U-bolt from McMaster, $13 and Climbing Loop, $3

i didn't realize you could use a loop and not a tow hook, that's pretty cool.

:thumbup: for JMU colors too

- Ginger - 12-04-2005

wewt! Looks good.

The loop is more better, wont impale my shins as I walk around the car, or a Spec Miata bumper when I punt them off the track in the carousel.

How freaking getto RJ. Dude seriously how are you going to bump draft or punt people out of the way with that thing. C- in my book

Stop doing things on the cheap and get hinged system by Formula Systems Group.

Thats why its a l00p, not a metal battering ram hook.

how strong is your bumper supports in that direction? Not worried about ripping off the bumper? Mine's going on the frame not some bumper thats held in place by 2 bolts.
