  1. If you fancy giving hms more money. I got these harness pads, one for comfort and two to hide the yellow that doesn’t match anything. I do pull them off in track days as they interact with Han’s. https://www.hmsmotorsport.com/products/schroth-3in-shoulder-pads-with-racing-patch?_pos=4&_sid=82b77f9e1&_ss=r they also keep the uv damage at bay on the harness although with a 5 year dating it’s less of an issue.
  2. My 2023 420 has the same plate. It was weighed for registration at 1300lbs. (Which sounds like a very round number to be truly accurate ). But that’s what I am going with. I do carry a bunch of crap with me and I have some lbs to myself. I did buy some cheap floor scales and will at some point weigh it myself.
  3. I didn’t think to look at that at all
  4. Did you sneak a peak to see if your belts were dated ? That’s just where my mind goes. gorgeous car.
  5. Come down regardless. I came down in 2023 while mine was being built. I’ve learned a lot from just talking to the other owners.
  6. I paid my final invoice on 11.16.23, loaded on ship 1.13.24 landed in Newark 2.2. It went up to Greg at time machines. Engine installed and fired up 3.14. I spent a bit of time dealing with the dmv. But picked car up 6.8. But no idea if that is normal these days or what
  7. I am not much of a gamer. But a few months back I took my kids to a be driving place near me. They had the full rigs but not sure if it’s forza or some other software. I had to try the car. Think it was an r400. granted I am not very experienced with driving games. But I thought it was much harder than in real life. I think having all those inputs and cues in the real car make it easier to drive at the limit. In the game I was all over the place. (Some would argue just like real life).
  8. I defer to others smarter than I. Not sure if your current wet sump is baffled etc. I think there is a risk especially with long sweepers. But if you’re talking about the annual meetup I think we are running thunderbolt with the new devils pass. Which cuts out the devil which I would think would be the highest risk turn. Defer to @Croc because he is smarter all around (and better looking).
  9. Welcome. @Croc is nice enough to curate a weekly listing of sevens for sale. All shapes and sizes.
  10. They have collars that fit inside the b24 bracket. Or it might be a 7/16” bolt that has its own collar already installed. Sleeves must be used in conjunction with a washer on one side. See picture of assembled bolt in setup. Sleeves are available in different sizes for different bolts. Note if you are using a B24 bracket, you will need the sleeve specific to that bracket. This is true unless you need a 7/16" Bolt. In this case use an SG11 Bolt that has a shoulder for use with the B24
  11. I see the hardware on the hms website. I ordered a b24 bolt in with 15deg bend in it. They have washers and collard inserts for that with a 7/16” bolt. https://www.hmsmotorsport.com/products/schroth-bolt-in-bracket-b24 https://www.hmsmotorsport.com/products/schroth-pivot-sleeve-for-bolt-in-brackets?variant=47230554898532 when Greg installed mine he kept the clip in hardware and just installed 7/16” eyebolts for the shoulder straps. Never ended up using the bolt in hardware. https://www.hmsmotorsport.com/products/schroth-eye-bolts the lap belts got these attachments and and clipped in. https://www.hmsmotorsport.com/products/schroth-bolt-on-end-fitting-kit-b23a sub straps went thru the floor pan and has these underneath. https://www.hmsmotorsport.com/products/schroth-reinforcement-plate @savagete2860 pm me and we can talk
  12. I nice drive today. Met up with @BlakeJ and @NSXguy (in is Renault). came across a bmw powered locost (I think).
  13. Any update on the build (360 or the chicken coop)
