looks great, I know the feeling of having to put it up for the winter, but it's best in the long run around here. maybe you could hang out with the mifbody.com guys when things warm up we usually are at autoeurope on Woodward Friday evenings.

super long over due update.
The car has been amazing. I've put over 15k miles on it since the swap, and atleast 20 track days. Won a lot of trophies, and even got in a magizine. Heres a few updated pics and videos.

won "Eyes on Design" designers choice award in 2011.
