Hey man! I have been putting all my updates on Instagram since last year. It’s just much easier to post there quickly. My handle is w_analytics_racing. I’ve made quite a bit of changes!

Thanks man! I’ve added quite a few more mods that are on Instagram. The wheel was done by a guy in Michigan that did another wheel for me on the past. He’s actually a designer for GM! Let me know if you want his info👍

What wheels are you running now? Saw the shots in the pics thread, they look awesome. What are the numbers - diameter, width, offset?
You've inspired me. Thinking I need the Ohlins instead of the Penskes now...

Thanks for the kind words. The wheels are BBS RIA’s from Japan. They are a true Forged monobloc wheel and only weigh 17# for the 18x9.5 et35 setup I have.
The Ohlins ILX/TTX have no competition. They are a step above anything else on the market and that’s why I worked with Mike at Figs to get these. I have some front aero coming care of John Morgan and Alpheyga. I worked with him to get the GT4 front splitter to production. Waiting to get the tunnels that will go in mine and then will be chassis mounting it to get real downforce.
Let me know if you have any other questions👍

Just as a note...The reason I chose to go with a single race shell seat and not replace both was to retain all of the airbag functionality. Like I said above, my goal is to create the ultimate dual use vehicle, and with three kids I need to have working airbags for school dropoffs
This little resistor keeps all the airbags functioning and no dash light from the driver seat removal.

Not all by itself. The occupant sensor also has to send a signal, so you'd need to find the right resistor for it as well.

Maybe 5ltr can update us on the sensors. He is running two race seats now, so I’m sure he figured it out.
