Optima DriveAutoX at UMI this past weekend
I qualified in P1 after sitting in P2 from day 1's runs. Was able to make up the gap and have a little cushion. Top 8 drivers make it to the shootout. Unfortunately I hit a cone in the semi's and that gets you a DNF. Oh well. Added some much needed rear aero, and as ugly as it looks, it's working.

Nice work Joelster, using the car as intended with some 'subtle' modifications! Can you share any other modifications that you've made?

I used Planted Technology brackets and then just some aluminum pieces I grabbed from Lowe's.
