What is your curb weight, wet with driver?
How many hours labor and cost was it to strip down and clean up that bay like that?

Make more videos of you driving the piss out of it.

Or in typical alabama fashion, I say 27s.

They do make a difference. It makes turns the door into a rigid brace. The extra engine bay space is whats unique and what our intentions were. It's kind of the styling there, minimalist aesthetics. Like modern furniture. Zero clutter.

I am not sure, I should weigh it soon. We took out a ton of weight. We did everything in house to the engine bay so expense was low for us, but hours of labor probably 50+. Most of the work went into reworking the OEM chassis harness. It was a first time thing too, so if we do it again it will probably be less time.

Yes! This won't be a problem to provide. We went to Barber again last weekend so we're putting together a video of us thrashing the car.

Maybe! I dig the new cast aluminum for now. Black would be pretty rad though.

Uploading pics from Barber Motorsports Park now....

You too! I had no idea it was shooting flames haha. If you have video email it to me Chase@ChaseBays.com or if you need a place to upload it I can give you the info. We could add it to the video we're making of the car.

Here's a few iPhone pics from our Barber Motorsports Park track day this past Sunday. The car took a beating! A Porsche 944 wouldn't let me pass for a couple laps, meanwhile he was throwing out rubber from his tires. He got black flagged. The remnants of his tires are still on my car. All in all a great day and learned a lot. My next mod is better tires and bigger sway bars.

I went one number less on my braking zones, this car stops so well. The Chase Bays Brake Booster Eliminator and Wilwood 6 piston front / 4 piston rears do their job. I feel my head rush when I'm on the brakes.

Does your products works with right hand drive version ? Kinds like the grounding harness, fender brakelines, etc...

The brake lines do, but the Charging/Grounding harness would have to be adjusted a little. We can make the changes and add the option to our site. Let me know.
