Hooman and I got the rest of the interior pulled that needed to be yanked for the cage fabrication tonight. It's starting to look crazy!!

Here's a coupla pictures of the Sparco install! This is the bracket from Wedge Engineering. This thing is haas. Everything was threaded, and lined up perfect. I was very impressed with the build quality.

The car without any seats, lol.

I'll post pics of the cage once I get her back from Robinson. She goes in tomorrow morning, and should be back by weeks end!

Negatory, my man... I'll get a passenger seat back in there eventually... but the rear seats are definitely out for good. They were such a huge pain to get out - there's no way they're gawn back in.
:D

It's really loud, lol. Especially with the trunk exposed. Time to crank the tunes and tone it out. It's nice when I'm sliding, though... I feel more connected with what's going on with the car.

Good ol' Michelin Homicide! Hehe... I had the spare on the car, and that li'l guy was headed straight to Gran Turismo East for a peel'n'swap! I would have been in trouble if I snagged a flat on the way there, lol. :)

Provided the passenger seat is back in the car... you got it, yo! Do they allow ridealongs at Formula D? I wasn't paying attention last year to see if there were passengers during practice. Either way, we'll work something out!
:D

i would assume since the drivers have to have fire suits, gloves, nomex undies, helmets/approved seats/approved harnesses then the passenger's have to have the same.

passengers just have to wear a helmet to ride with the drivers during practice
