With the tire setup you're using, how much power are you putting down now. The rear diff looks beautiful on your car. I'm about to have the same rear diff cover installed on my car. Also pics would be appreciated, I never tire of looking at a well nodded "G" (I guess that's why I'm always looking at my "G" lol).

I'm currently NA, the Vortech was removed a while ago.
The tire setup is geared towards the track, and towards the LS traction needs. Since I knew this would be done, when it was time to do the tires (rears a while ago, and the fronts just now), I decided to upgrade already rather than having to buy new tires all over again in a few months

Thanks guys lol pressuuuure
Escort SmartRadar with IPhone App installed, and display on rearview mirror.
Don't let the pic fool you, the unit is very small and tucks right behind the rearview mirror, I struggled to get that pic to show the actual unit. You can't see it either from the outside, which is obviously the most important part (ButOfficerPlease)

Yeah they have an iPhone model, and an android model. However, as off a few weeks ago, these were discontinued. I got it on Groupon for $199 (great deal as they retail for $459).
Check Groupon and you might still get lucky. I missed the first batch but they had a second run, and I took advantage.

Few pics from this weekend's track day at Homestead Miami Raceway:
Only action pic... I actually ate that M3 right after this turn. Most exciting pass of the day!
Got to ride in this GT3 for a full session... what a crazy difference there is between a real sports car and our Gs.... Amazing experience though, never thought a car could be pushed to such limits!

Weighed the car today.
1/3 tank, full interior, sparcos, lw flywheel/clutch, no windshield fluid system, lighter rotors, no spare, cf hood, bunch of random engine mounting metals removed.
3480 lbs. Not too bad. C6 Vette is around 3300 which is not sooooo different (reason I'm comparing it is since this week I almost got a c6 vette as a wkd/track car, instead of continuing to go thru with the swap).
Officioal DOT Scale. Hard to push that button on the poll to get them to weigh it. Not as easy when you're not in a 18wheeler lol.
And another huge/cool update. My gauges for my full gauge replacement are done! Progress pics were emailed to me! (please don't copy me kthanks). Doing a full blue led replacement to the rest of the console lights once these are installed with the LS.
