pics from sunday :rotate:

onboard video will follow soon hopefully - the cam was from a friend and I havn't got the file from him yet.

unfortunately I damaged the car again.
I hit the wall with the rear and some tires with the front.

this was the last trackday for this year - now I have some time to install the rest of the parts that are lying around here *gg*

That looked like a sehr kalt tag auf der Track! Annnnnnd thats 4 years of high school German for ya :) Good idea not sending your ID, address, CC info, and signature to some random company 6000 miles away, Im sure you can get those brackets somewhere else.

That looked quite good at times... no drift in the long bend before the final corner or down the slope tho.

P.S.: pics of the damage?

yes, even with the sliders they are lower than the stock ones - perfect for my size :)

I dig it! Hopefully it won't be a pain to take off if you decide to do something different.
