Got back from dropping off race seats and roll bars at Arrington tonight, had an opportunity to see progress. They're stripping the interior (weight reduction, plus lessens fire hazard in a crash if there's nothing in there to burn), and are going to weld in my roll cage. No more swapping OEM seats for Kirkeys - the race seats will be in full time.

In addition to talking with JusticePete again, I had a chance to meet the guys doing the engineering behind the new engine, and doing the work on the car. Wow, talk about knowledgeable. They are putting together what will be an absolutely awesome engine, and helping me think through some supporting mods for the track. I am excited about how this is going to turn out! More details as the plan comes together.
