Looking good! A couple questions: Curious what your GVW is now(racing weight), and it's hard to see in the picture, but are the hood louvers aiming forward or backwards? Looking forward to seeing some race videos from you.

Love the hood and splitter. I want the first "copy" and don't you forget it. It looks to me like you removed part of the bumper support for extra cooling. If only I was that brave. I'm a fan and will follow when I can.

Glad to see you posting again hustler 316. Have been keeping up with you a bit through Rob. You are doing some impressive things with the Racefire. The car looks awesome. Let us know if you decide to market any of your up grades.
