Eric, I got pictures of you at the starting line for the final on Sunday. I was standing RIGHT at the fence beside you, but couldn't get your attention. I visited your paddock too, but you weren't around so I left.

Hood: Stock hoods are aluminum so they are light to begin with. We add to that by cutting some metal from the underside to lighten it a bit more. The rubber trim pieces/seals are removed because you don't need them. The end result is the hood flaps around a smidge.

Cool, car looks and sounds great. Funny how the car you were following pulled on the straights but then you caught right up in the corners. Love it.
