Had the car back for a few track days now and very happy with the new setup. The green is loud but I absolutely love it and think it looks great in person. The peace of mind proper safety equipment and a fire system gives me lets me push it just a little harder.

I don't think it was mentioned in here, but we decided to add an OMP Superquaddro wheel on a Bell Hub w/ a Sparco quick release. The D shape allows much easier entry and exit with the high bolsters on the Sparco Circuit II.

Here is a short video with some action from last weekend and a rearview shot so you can see the rollbar.

I can say that in person the cage looks even better. Well thought out set up, nice welds. GSpeed does really clean work for sure!
