The white wing realy pulls the whole look of the car together. I still cant understand the mix of Blue, white, and black from the dealer. The white roof will realy flow nice now.
I say "Job Well Done"
Please post shots of the whole car. Looks like the antena is real close to the wing?

Real close. Good thing it bends. I have to adjust it to open the hood

Looking sweet so far. I bet the body shop had a blast cutting those vents out.


Are the wing sidepanels going to be blue or black?

Body shop didn't cut them out. Tiger racing has a mold.
The side winglets are going to be white.

The white wing and the paint on your hood look great. i couldn't wait for the body shop and threw some flat black on my carbon hood to get me by for a while. My carbon hoods weighed 14.5 pounds and needs some serious blocking to get ready for paint. I tried using the Redline struts but even those put too much pressure on the hood when pulling it down so I built my own struts that use clips to hold the hood up. I installed the washer nozzles in the black plastic under the wipers. I put them in the notches that the originals occupied but the originals are installed in the hood and that just didn't look as neat as mine or nearly as easy to install.

Nice! I remember yr car from BMO! The hood definitely needs hood locks. Very light and feels like it needs the extra support

Those black things on the hood are the Aerocatch hood pins.

Forgive my ignorance, but I see tons of S197 track cars using 4 hood pins. But most SN95s I see use 2.

What is the reason for 4 other than max safety? Is it due to the overhang of the S197 hood?

I just wanted it to look like the BOSS 302s. But now it feels like it needs it.

Just my 2 cents.


How is adding race parts, to a race car a rice rocket?

A legend in what sense, I wanna keep it original so I can try to make money off people? Or legend by enjoying the car so much that the stories you tell will make others understand and talk about the capabilities of such a machine?
