I am going to put a FIA cage in my F150 instead to better serve my driving skills.

I will post something in the next couple days. There are a couple of parts I need to track down part numbers for.

It turned out better than we expected and was REALLY FAST!!!

What a great weekend. This was my second outing in the Boss at VIR and I think to say I am hooked is an understatement. I was lucky enough to have PeteInCT as my instructor. I cannot thank him enough for his time, patience, and advice. I hope to link up with him on track again in the near future.

I also meet a lot of great people and put faces with board members. That in many ways was worth the trip alone.

Hope to see everyone again next year.

Video of my lousy driving; I ran 364 miles last weekend, well worth the fee.

I might, have to comb through the 360 minutes of video I have. That was cool, wish the starter turned on the microphone though.

 

[PeteInCT]

He chickened out with El Hefe' right there next to him !

Finally got around to uploading shots and some video. Including my trip off track.







Yes i too the car unfinished from the body shop. I warned them i would. Also note the HID headlamp instead of the standard on. This is what the dealership sent them, so i took it as is. Took it back to them as is too.

video of off track:
