Finally got around to making this battery tie down, have had the strap for months.

Also repainted one of my brembos that had gotten marked up from removing the wheels over time.

Pics probably wont show it as well but I polished and sealed my CCWs as well!

 

Looks good !!! What did you use for polish?

 

Been using White Diamond with a Mothers Power Cone. No complains with it!

 

More polishing! Certainly is not a quick process, but it is therapeutic to an extent. Love these wheels.

Wish I would have got a shot of how bad the barrels were on them before they were washed! Could probably use a wet sand, but I'm happy with it.

 

so clean man, I really need to look into a set of those wheels....... I like the c5dd cause they are cheap knock offs of the sp500's but I think id like to go to 19's at some point.

Looking good man!

 

I was reeeally trying to get a set of them a few years ago, but by the time I was ready to buy, they had discontinued the polished version. Theyre a lot harder to come by than I expected!

 

And man they were so cheap!!! Haha cause I blew all my money on other stuff

 

Are these the wheels you guys are talking about?

 

Yup I've got the 18x10.5's that are deep and have them on all 4 corners

 

That's the ones! I remember looking at your car when I was trying to buy some lol

 

Project of the week: ashtray switch plate for another member

Got some decent pics with the wheels and car all cleaned up too!

 

I may be parting with them next spring if interested but honestly I like what's on your car better.

They are 17 x 9.5 all the way around.

 

First time at autox yesterday. Man it was a great time, I can't wait to go out again and get some more experience. Car had no issues either. Managed to knock 10 seconds off my time throughout the day!

Also got ab ebay STB lol. Figure I'll get a rear sway bar/SFCs/torque arm in good time. Only have a front sway bar, adj. phb, LCAs, Koni/bmr as of now.

 

That's what I built my car for. Just never got around to taking it through a course. I think it would be a blast!

Looks sharp also

 

We definitely need stickier tires and just run in the xp class. Brb buying a set of track wheels

 

I recommend it! I love highway pulls as much as the next guy, but it was great to do something different.

Some non 400tw would be a good start lol

 

Holy cow that course looks really fast, I need to get out there one day.

 

It was and you should! We can have an fbody takeover lol.

I wanna look into adding some telemetry layers on the GoPro for next time. I have no idea how fast I was going for any of it

 

Yeah I'm still working on in car camera angles for my GoPro. Finally added a mic to it just having had time to test it out. I missed two of the last autocross events offered here in Lafayette last month. NOLA looks like a whole nother level though as far as size.

 

I'd like to get a mic too before next time. Which one did you go with?

It's pretty large! They have it on the skid pad, so it's prob a little better than Cajun Field parking lot haha
