Ryan, I may have asked you this before, have you thought of removing the air pressure canister in front of the master cyl. thats mounted on the fender well, that is attached to the master cyl.

I also deleted those speaker pods, and dumped them, not right for the design and shape of the door...I am having a custom fiberglass box built that will replace the stock door speaker box, and will house 2 speakers. This will be a stealth mount behind the stock door speaker grill. No shiny fiberglass in view, which I do not like.
Don't want to go with racing seats...I like the stock seats, though I do not like the weight of them, but the creature comforts are worth it for now.
No roll cage...This is first a street car, then a show car, then a race car. I still plan for most of the Lexus comforts, still...
I prefer the clean, plush sleeper look...
BTW Bob, your car is looking awesome, and very unique. Massive FMIC...
Chris is a great fabricator...Look forward to seeing it roast those rear tires...Ryan

You're right...Please no roll cage in the SC, unleast you go drifting. The SC chassis can take quite a bit of an impact without the need for the roll cage.

So if you plan on running a 10.99 then cage it up!

Right on Steve...I do like the Supra seata, but I also really like the SC seats. Just wish I could lower the SC seat...I am 6 feet with tall hair, so I would not mind a little extra headroom.
Just got off the phone with the man that is doing my lights...Just you wait Henry Higgins, just you wait...

I guess it would be a sub 11. I think the rule is 10.99 and you have to have a 4 point, but I don't know for sure.
you can apologize, but they still aren't gonna let you run again. :-(
But I agree with you, I'm not putting in a cage until racing is the cars main goal.

In Central Florida including Tampa, there are probably 6 or more track rental opportunities per year where you can run without a cage. You just have to know the time and the track sponsor. However, slicks are a must so as not to degrade the track prep for the other participants.
Otherwise, you can run at a local 1/8 mile and pretty much stay on it through the trap without getting kicked out.
With that said, however, none of the tracks will let you run with "tall hair". Tall hair is not allowed!
