Track only, no DD.

Excited to see this!

Thanks, I welcome input as many here know better than I, BUT mainly the car just needs suspension/camber, TIRES, and brake pads, plus a bigger FMIC. Well, and a diet. I am deciding on ED now versus PCD. I love ED but it really delays getting the car back to the states.

If you're that worried about weight, maybe you shouldn't be tracking a 3400 pound car. Bad things can happen very quickly on a track. The weight difference between a rollbar and a harness bar isn't even 1% of the weight to the car.

agreed - I was just joking, but tracking it will be done often

what rollbar options are out there?

Isn't there a poll or somthing where you can click yes if you already have your M2? And in different continents. We did that with MT/DCT as I recall. Then counting would be easier.

Dunno. I think somebody posted a link to a Motorsports one in another thread. It looked pretty expensive. OTOH, designing and fabricating a 4-point bar isn't exactly rocket surgery, especially since it'd be exactly the same thing one would use in an F22.

I'm supposed to have lunch with the owner of my fave race shop tomorrow, I'll try to remember to ask him.

I will on 9/8, my build sheet initially showed to be 162R and after the VIN was assigned to the build it showed as 172R..
