Thanks guys!

The wiring harness stuff is pretty easy but just takes a LOT of time. I am going to tackle the body harness next and I'm not looking forward to it I want the car to loose another 50 lbs and that harness I bet I can remove almost 10 lbs ha.

I want to tube the front section like Scott did on his EVO and actually have all the holes/studs/etc..filled more 'professionally' and then re-sprayed.

Update 10/29/2012

Since the 2012 DSM/EVO Shootout I haven't had much time for the car. I was able to get my trans fixed and had QM rebuild my clutch. I plan to hit a private track rental this Saturday assuming this big *** storm doesn't flood us out. So far they are calling for 50 degrees and sunny Saturday...I'll keep my fingers crossed the weather works out. This will be the last time I run the car before I put it away for winter. I have some plans for the winter. My forward facing kit is for sale right now if anyone is interested. PM me for details.

You guys should be seeing a feature on my car in one of the upcoming DSport magazines! I'm pretty excited for that. Im not sure what month it will be in.

Some may have seen this photo already but for those who haven't enjoy It is by far my all time favorite shot of my car.

Me too man! Weather looks good right now as long as it doesn't change. I could deal with 50 and sunny. Let's just hope they don't flood

Thanks! We both could use some good luck for once.

I haven't changed anything on my car in awhile. Heck I haven't touched it really since the Shootout. I plan to run this Saturday with full interior. I think I am even going to drive it to the track. The only change will be taking the street tires off and putting the slicks on. With full interior and the slicks she should be right about 2770 with me in the car. I'm kinda fat right now lol.

We'll see I guess.

Thanks!

The weather isn't looking the greatest right now. Doens't look like rain so that is good but temps are going to be in the low to mid 40's. I'd feel better if that would get closer to 50. It is only Wednesday so things can change I guess.
