The stuff up top is a really thin material I got from CV Products. Not sure what it's called. They're a large NASCAR supplier in NC by my father's place. The dimpled stuff on the lower part and the rest I the tub is DEI Floor & Tunnel shield.

Too exhausted from thrashing on the car for the past month to type a full write-up, but it ran well at the track. Needs a few things changed, but all in all it worked well. Car weighed in at 2648 pounds wet. Car felt fast on track, handled great (very neutral with a little oversteer).
Here are a couple of shots loading up.

Had it out at CMP in February and VIR a few weeks back. Car is doing great. Picked up a slight miss in the last session at VIR and traced it to the passenger side coil-pack plug to the MSD harness. Slighly bending the male pins fixed it. The really short accessory belt didn't work... but figured that out last year. Had to add an idler to get more wrap on the water pump.
At VIR with NASA weekend before last... I took it out the first session Saturday then instructed the rest of the weekend. Dad drove in HDPE-3 all weekend.
