Your car would look 1000 times better with some sideskirts, I didn't think yellow brakes would work on a yellow car but I was wrong, they look pretty bad *** actually. nice ride, you're off to a great start

here is what's under the hood. The outside looks like many others, albeit different rims and clear corners.

Up above I love the gold rims on the car. I wanted my Ultraleggeras in gold, but they stopped making the 18 x9 in gold! garggh!

Some nice new pics taken by pros from my track day at the weekend:
I had a great track day at a new venue in the UK:

The place is called Blyton Park, and its an old yank bomber base from WWII.
A real car enthusiast has recently renovated it, and laid fresh tarmac into the old tarmac of the runways, t make an entertaining track day circuit (its only for track days, not racing)



Car went very well, and I am now focussing on cooling etc so I can bash in more laps without getting paranoid about overheating etc.....

Also will add some cool pics from Xteme photo here too:

Now where were we?


Ah yes!

One of my faves:


mmm fat rear wheels AND Apex cone clipping!



Finally: Fresh targets!



Also I managed to get another 3 generation special!
