Presumably not, just because the cage is still black - but you never really know.

that red really makes the front assembly "pop" and makes it the place that draws your attention

I like that you have a plain red car. Your name, race class, and number. End of story. No sponsors. That BMW e30 is one Fig Newton away from Ricky Bobby status.

it will have a V-shop sticker on the window only because peter saved my life skydiving in Nepal and he helps me with parts . im starting to love the 1/4 " pinstripe down the car.

Looks brilliant!
Heres a stupid question for you though...
What is the little 'T' in the circle for on the LF guard in front of the wheel?
I was guessing for a tow hook, but it looks like that tow hook is on the right???
Here some classes require us to have the word 'tow' and an arrow next to the hook, as well as the typical blue battery triangle, but I've not seen anything like the little 'T' in the circle before so wondered if its something specific to your class.

the T is for timing transponder

:omg::omg::omg: Do you think it was from oil starvation or?
I'll give Jonathan my G-tech while he's down here for Davis so you guys can check cornering G's on the track (will record highest number). It has to be a buttload as that thing has incredible grip, even with old worn-out and flat spotted tires. :oops:
no i put in a oil gage(with light) and it never went below 40 psi . the spark pug was all burnt up and cracked.

tony when you gonna do a comp check? My vote is something happened with the valves...not sure what though. Car looks great, and seems like once sorted is gonna have another great season.
I see you out there in June :-P

Looks good. I wish I had gone out to see it race briefly and say hi. How well does it match the truck? I'm picturing jelly bean towing brick...I like it.
