Never done a custom piece, but have ordered several 24x36, and had them framed.
Get on their e-mail list, they have codes for discounts from 25-40% off. Last one I got, on Jan 20th, was 30% code is 0113. No idea if it works still.

Was there in 2016 supporting the Ford GT, its 1st race. This is an amazing event to attend. Went to see the GT win at LeMans that year too.
All on the fence, to go to Daytona? Do it, great time.
Make sure you properly prep the car, especially upgrading and flushing the brake fluid. As you start to go quicker, pads will be next.
As mentioned, spend the most time learning how to drive. There will be 3 phases, first you learn the line, Second you will start going quicker, then 3rd you...
Wonder how much longer Saleen will be around. With so much financial turmoil (over MANY years), bankruptcy, loosing /regaining rights to the name, and the China cluster, sure seem like they are on their 12th, or so, "life" (of the 9 lives available). They are further challenged by OEM offerings...
I would pass, too risky. Also who knows if mold has set in, in the interior. We have a home that was affected by Ian, luckily a modern home built up, but still had 26" of water in the garages (empty luckily). Point here is that the flood water is not clean pure water. It has nasty mud and silt...
Get the lightest helmet that the budget will allow. Your neck will appreciate it, with the g loads on track.
Many helmets do not fit my head. Bell helmets do. This might be a resource for you, located in Barrington IL (Pegasus is fantastic as well)...
Having a steel 24' for around 30 years now, I would not go any smaller than a 24'. Going to the track you need tools spares etc, and 20 is just too tight. 28' would be better, but does start to get "big". We have a Raptor that we towed the 24' with for 10k miles before retiring it for a 6.7...
We use RBF600 in our race cars. Selected it as a good balance between performance and price.
As for other options, here is a great chart outlining some of the performance of the best racing fluids

Nope, Im patient, we have several Mustangs that were ADM specials. Wait a while (usually 5-10 years after when they were new), and then jump. This is why Im here starting to pay attention to GT350R's......
GOOD NEWS, neither of those concepts are of ANY interest to me, to be in a Mustang......... And no that E thing, should never have used the Mustang nameplate.
I use Startron in out boat, but all the cars, I dont bother. 6 months has not been long enough to have any issues (20+ years experience, and the sample size is currently around 25 cars). Works for me, and so far the cars as well. I think the biggest thing is to drive them (as you do)....
We have 3 cars that are 100% wrapped with Xpel, and others with the front clip (A pillar forward). 100% is great, but obviously expensive. If your going to do it, the experience of the installer is far more important than the product (xpel, vs Suntek etc). I would also consider doing the entire...
There is no substitute for a "real race car". A street car on track is just that, a street car on track, while competent, the next level is a car prepped and set up exclusively for track use. You have to choose what is more important, but if you really want to go to the track, get the race car...
BMW still provides 3 years of ALL maintenance included.
I had 2 E90s, and an F80 M3's, one would have thought I would slide into the F80. Kids are older, and the back seat is now irrelevant, was concerned of the size of the G80 so went with an M2CS. ALL of these cars were 3 pedal. Yes the autos...
The "strip" location is much easier to get to, and is a MUCH more visitor friendly facility than the former LVMS location. For sure a must see, when in Vegas. One of the best things in Vegas, especially as the Imperial Palace car museum is long gone.
