It looks nice, but taping stuff to that panel is part of my cable management program. Wouldn’t work for me. I also have a piece of blown up engine taped to it for luck.

But what kind of tape did you use to secure it? lol

Just checked in the Razer app and the mouse more than 80 million combined (L+R) clicks on it, I can't be disappointed with a metric like that.

Meh, it's just for cables and a piece of piston the size of a quarter. I used to run the cables loose it just got annoying.

Well I just ordered that alcantara dash piece, and also this alcantara gauge hood: https://www.ftspeed.com/part/66180ca...trim-2013-ft86

MOAR ALCANTARA.

Funny story, back when JPM Coachworks was still in business, I asked them in June of 2013 how much their entire alcantara dash was: $1,200! Pretty expensive but wow that would look great.

At the "Ring" you pay per lap. He and the Porsche both did two laps. As he passed under the Audi bridge the Porsche pulls up beside him and he waves acknowledgement. Then, pulls to the right and begins to slow down.
You can see the lap from the Porsche's view on Youtube as well. However, the rear view mirror blocks the image of the Caterham for most of the lap. It's rather underwhelming to watch. Although the Porsche driver does get a little sideways a couple of times.
