Probably painters tape to prevent nicks in the paint.

 

I love your pics...what angle is your MSwing at? The lower or higher holes? Can you take a close up pic and show me...??? Thanks!

 

it looks like painters tape. Prevents bugs, and crap to get all over the bumper. I did that for my first track day then just took it right off lol.

 

 

how did your car hold up against those P-sha's?

 

Surprisingly well, I was in the White group, group 3 (advanced is 4th group). It really all depends on the driver...of course the HP difference made it that they could (but didn't always) fly by me on the striaghts...go figure Great bunch those Porsche drivers I must say...lots of fun!!

 

have you tried any other driving clubs?

I like the local BMW club, but have been told the PCA is a bit more lenient (some say less safe) with the use of speed:P

 

Painters tape makes sense but thats a huge effort lol and it wasnt in the other shots.

Leesha, its a replica wing so I am not sure the holes are the same, but the front is on its lowest and the rear on its highest. I will attempt to tale a pic close up and PM you.

Oh yes, Porsche Club is one of my favorites, but also I've done Audi Club events, they are very organized and run excellent mostly 2 or 3 day events. The NER Porsche Club here is far from lenient, they have a requirement you must have a fire extinguisher in your car for track days, for example, and it's quite the process to run up thru the group ranks.

Also BMW Club (either the NH or Boston group). In the past I've done SCDA (SCDA1.com) but they are 30-40% more expensive being a for profit enterprise, and aren't what I consider very strictly run, so not so much. Also NASA but they are more at Watkins Glenn and that's a bit of a drive for me, so haven't been recently.

 

Doh! forgot its in getting turbo fitted. Wont be back until next week. I feel like a pregnant woman!

re-a front <3

 

Is that a MS to hook under the for lights? does the MS kit change the location?

 

i believe there is no place to put a tow hook on the ms kit.. i know the stock bumper has it on the upper right side of the front grill but the MS doesnt have one.

yeah its a timing transponder

 

Thanks You car looks awesome.

Razz I love this one https://www.rx8club.com/attachment.p...0&d=1201468859

You have my problem, I lean so hard it looks like I am picking something up of the passenger side floor I have been told by an instructor its a habbit you want to break.

Cheers

I dont think its your fault. Our seats especially in leather dont hold much. I love them, but I think I'll have to change the seat next year.

 

can you imagine the kind of rock chips you'll get if you go in the clag at 118 mph? haha

 

correct.

works out pretty good huh?

despite that I just said it works pretty good, i still have 'battle' scars (battles with v8s and numerous other cars!) below the foglights area, my oil coolers are ruined, and since I ran out of tape to cover the headlights, not to mention i did the taping the night before, having to drive to where i was sleeping in which i obviously needed to see where I was going, my headlights are now ruined as well.

it was well worth it though!
