Hello 😃

I have been registered in this forum for some time, but I have never introduced myself also because I do not speak English very well 😅
In this thread I want to post some impressions, since I don't live in America like most of you, but in Europe (Switzerland).

I'm hoping for some cool conversation and some good suggestions.
Here in Europe we don't have much experience with US Cars, especially not for track use.😂

I also have a Youtube channel where I just upload racetrack videos at the moment...

Welcome and thanks for posting your videos of the tracks you have run in Europe. There are members of TMO all over the Globe and I know American cars are very popular in Switzerland, but it is tough to pass noise emissions. Impressed you were able to accomplish that and we all look forward to hearing more about your track exploits.
 
Small update :)

-First clutch replaced (at 57,266 km / 35,583 mi)

-Exhaust wrapped as best as possible with heat tape. Hoping to lower the differential temperature a little bit.

-Diffuser side element, was reinforced with carbon.
Because the sides "wings", are hung down because of the intense heat :notgood:
