This one is finished and done hundreds of test laps with no changes needed whatsoever from it's initial build which is most satisfying.
...onto car #2 which will have plenty of time now that I retired yesterday

Personally, I can't see that ending well...

Anyhow...Proxy hosts look away now to avoid disappointment!
Wouldn't it be funny if someone else entered one of these Fiat Abarth 1000 TCRs as well...

We had a night of working on muscle cars and I found 1 SRP 20k motor for my 2-3 entries. If I can get the Cuda lower, it will be the entry as it’s just under 3mm high on ground clearance and was tippy during testing 2 years ago. The Camaro in the background sits too low at 1.3mm and is so not eligible.

The temptation to use this for event 1 just for sh*ts and giggles is high...
Will have to check the ground clearance though as it'll be very very close to the 1mm height limit
