Or consider a poured seat as in many formula cars. Super comfortable but take some skill to do well. Look at Pegasus. If you don’t fit with no seat in???? jim

2023 USA7s HPDE at NJMP Lightning - CHANGED TO October 14 and 15

I’ve been waiting to register and keeping an eye on the weather like everyone else. Given I need to rent a truck to bring up my trailer and need to cancel that as well as a reservation I made at Fairfield inn, I’m afraid I’m going to cancel. I was happy when it got rescheduled since we were out of town when it was originally scheduled. Oh well. Hope to see everyone next year! Added some pics of the Jim Clark Museum I went to while in Scotland. Small but worth the trip. About an hour southeast of Edinburgh. Gotta go if your a Lotus fan. Jim -
I have a Speedhut speedometer as well and have had it for 7 years without any issues. I put the wire for my antenna thorough the center hole in the scuttle used for the wiper washer. Has a digital gauge at the bottom that allows for measuring 0-60 times, has a clock, altimeter and digital speed. Works well!

I used this when I did mine: Medium Mesh Stainless, #6 x .035 Wire (6 openings per inch). Bought at Pegasus auto racing. Made a template of the opening with cardboard then used that to trace onto plywood and used that as a buck to bend it over. Used aviation snips to cut the wire. Sits behind the 7 grill and held in place with small zip ties. Works well to keep bugs, tire rubber and stones out of the radiator. I’m in Owings Mills if you want to see what mine looks like. jim

FOS is on my bucket list and since I’m retiring in 6 months- I’d love to go in 2024. Too late to get tickets or arrange to get to the FOS this year but interested if anyone here has gone, details on where to stay, seating etc.. Appreciate any information. Thanks! Jim

Looking good Mike. With all the mods- looks like you've got any extra 50 lbs just in wiring! Look forward to seeing this one day as I'm sure do you. Jim

Hey Vlad- Congrats on the new addition. Let us all know how the car seat fits in the 7!! Jim

Thanks to Mike and Tom for setting up this event as always. Had a blast chasing everyone around and renewing friendships in the paddock and at dinner. Jim

2001 SLR, Vovchandr and I have very similar cars both being SLR's. Check to see if your nose and wings are carbon fiber. They should be on an SLR. Your engine is similar to how mine started although mine has been modified since I bought it. Don't have any idea on the key for your wheel covers since mine came without them as well as Vlads. I have the same header 'socks' as yours and given your location, this car was probably put together by Chip Bond at GT Classics in Charlottesville, VA. Quite the nice barn find!! Jim
