Absolutely! The Riv is just about done and I got to take it for a quick lap around the housing edition tonight. Replaced the O2 sensor and it seems to be running better than before. The new tires are freaking awsome. Shed some weight while it was down for paint (enough that I took the 1/2" spacers off from the rear springs to get her level again- she was sitting tail high)... If I can get her done before Wed, I'm going to the track otherwise I need to wait until next week. As far as winter (or before), I'm good to go... let me know when and where!!

What is this "cutting the bumpers" business? Cutting the actual bumpers? Man, I wouldn't do anything that would affect the crash performance.

The Riv has become a second driver for me... only sunny days from now on. It's going to get limited driving time so I am not really worried about the 5mph bumpers. The the rear went from 28lbs to about 8lbs. I didn;t have a chance to weigh the front bumper before trimming. I would imagine the same results.

Chicken- she's a little lighter now with everything I trimmed or deleted... I will have to weight the Riv when I get done. I am hoping I am going to see 3500lbs for the car.

Paint is done...finally. Riv was down for a month and a half. Windows are being retinted tomorrow. I'll have some completion photos and vid first of next week. I'll try to fit another dyno run in next week as well.

Please don't give me too much grief about the quality of the photos, I just bought a camera and havn't been able to fool around with it much. And I know...the car is dirty. I swear it gets washed every 3 days but Indianapolis in infatuated with road construction progects so everything has a film of dust on it almost immediately. Next time I have the wheels off, I will take photos of my brake and suspension setup. It should be mid month when I go with the Air Ride setup in the rear.
