i am painting just the outside to match the car. Leaving the underneath portions as is.Very nice! I didn't see where you said it, going to paint the CF, or run exposed? How is the drive shaft?
it’s hard to feel a performance gain in a driveshaft, but you can feel an increase in the pedal to acceleration response. This is extremely minor. But you can feel an instantaneous response now, very snappy, in a good way. When the car is under high revs and you let off the gas, you can feel less hum or slightly less cabin vibration.It’s just a lighter shaft, so you can tell the difference if you know what to feel for.Out of curiosity did you feel any type of performance improvement with the carbon driveshaft?
This is awesome. I've been looking for a place where I could test multiple seats. I'll check them out when I'm up that way at Laguna Seca later this year.Also got new race seats for the car.
found a place today. I found a racing buddy who recommended to check them out. And it paid off.
Wine Country Motorsports
They had about 20-25 seats in stock so I got to try a bunch of them out.
I found the seat I want and went ahead and ordered them.
I went with the Sparco QRT-C
all carbon fiber. These seats weigh 12.5lbs with the cloth on them. And for how light they are. We’re very comfortable.
pretty excited to get everything mounted up
Luckily Everything was in stock. One of the seats was in their Colorado store. And I need the side mounts which were in stock with sparco.
looking like a solid 55lbs in weight reduction.
yes, I still haven’t made the decision to go full race car. I am enjoying streeting this car as well.Any reason you didn't choose a full halo seat? I've run both types of buckets and have really grown to love the halo. Helps reduce fatigue since I can rest the 'mellon on it in high G
So you’re saying these might be in the same boat? These have 8 track days on them. How many days are you getting on your gyro discs?Those are getting close. You can run them a bit longer, but I’d have an extra set. 1-2 more days is probably okay. Change after that.
I use the gyro disc rotors and like them. Better cooling and less cracking
