You rock, thanks! Your car looks bad *** btw!

I don't. I'll see if I can get a number off it tomorrow when I'm at the garage.

Here's an updated picture from the Roadster Cup event I attended. White car is an LS1 swapped Miata. White car took 1st in unlimited class, and I took 2nd in unlimited as well.

Absolutely love your car! How far off were you from the LS car?

.3 seconds. He has 100 more WHP and Hoosiers, and i was on RC-1's. We were making some adjustments to his car to try and get it handling better. Something wasn't quite right.

It was both of our first time at Chuckwalla in over 2 years, so we both have time left to pick up on the track

Here's the belt info. Looks like I used a Flennor 6PK1950.

Ryan, your car looked good out at Chuckwalla. I was gridded behind you in our 3rd session in the blue 10 AE, and hung on as long as I could with my 140 whp. It was a fun day, I ended up taking first in Modified class with a 2:03.5. Here is a pic of you up on the bowl, the LS car is in front of you. Hope to see you out at round 2!

We'll be there! It was Gary's (white v8) and my first time there in over 2 years, so we had some track re-learning to do. Our cars both had chronic understeer issues, so aside from a small alignment change, I also completely redid my front spitter for more down force. Hopefully we can get to a test and tune at Big Willow before the next round to try it out.

Looks like you are enjoying your LFX, hopefully my car proves to be a worthy home for your old turbo kit. Dynoed at 315/300 today, picking up from the shop tomorrow!

Congrats on the awesome numbers. That TSE EFR kit is one hell of a turbo setup.

Got the new splitter made and mounted with new end plates. Also drew up some fender vents in CAD and installed them. Hoping for an improvement if front grip.
