Been following you on IG for a little while now; definitely one of the best builds in the US!
Had a quick question - did you need to roll/pull your front fenders? I'm currently troubleshooting my setup and trying to weigh my options. TIA! |

As for the fenders, I folded the OEM ones for max clearance. The Alpha N ones are pure carbon so they aren't rolled but they are a "molded roll" if that makes sense. |

Any close ups of the alcantara door panels after dye? Did the alcantara take on some of it?

I plan on getting the Schirmer CF doors but that means I'll need a full cage and I'm not ready for that yet. It will happen just not that quickly. This reminds me I have a set of F22 Door cards with the Cinnamon inserts. I completely forgot that I got them and they've been sitting in storage. I had the idea of wrapping my Recaro in Cinnamon leather down the road. Hmmm. |

They have bracing but not enough to replicate the bracing on an OEM door. It's definitely recommended to get a full cage. If you don't it's at your own risk.

Really dig that rear bar/seat delete setup. I have a rear bar, but have been looking for a a similar rear close-out. Did you order yours from somewhere or just do it custom? The side-cushion pieces look familiar to me.

Hey man, curious about the CAE - how are you liking it?? Thinking about picking one up. Where did you buy it from? Did you buy direct from CAE?

Love it and wouldn't change a thing. I bought direct from them because they had them in stock and ship fast.

The past 6 months have been a bit of a blur for me and I think that's a good thing. Life is good. Since the last update there has been Germany, Recaro and Volk happenings.
I'll start off with Germany! This trip was mainly to visit Team Schirmer and well of course the Nurburgring. I will say, when I planned this trip, I knew it was going to be special. I didn't expect it to be a bucket list trip and it certainly was, it lived up to the hype and I will be going back! On June 30th, I flew out on a red eye and landed in Frankfurt on July 1st. Got the rental car and sprinted to Boos, Germany which is the home of Team Schirmer. It was everything I thought it was going to be and more. It was definitely a very special experience and I can't wait to be back. Incredibly lucky to meet Tom, Patrick, Guido and Martyn. Here are some of the pics that I was able to take from outside the shop. Unfortunately no pics were allowed inside and that's fine. It actually gave me the opportunity to soak it in for a more memorable experience. After my visit, I left for Dorint Am Nürburgring Hocheifel which is where I stayed for my first night. Such a cool place with a lot of history and its right on the ring. The cockpit bar was super rad! After a good check in I was able to make my way to the main lot where my head was turning left/right/up/down add a bit of whip lash too. Sooooo many awesome cars and everyone was so friendly. I got to meet so many people I've chatted with on IG over the past years. The day was just filled with joy as you could imagine. Here's a few to share. And a few action shots! Inside the Döttinger Höhe! Any car you want, it's here. A view from the Nürburg Castle Lastly, a day/night at Apex Nürburg. If you've watched Misha Charoudin on YouTube you'll recognize this place. I even had a chance to meet/chat with him too - he's a busy busy man. If you get a chance to make it to the ring, book a night or two here at least. The entire staff is awesome and it's in a great location too. I was able to take a lap with Tim Morley in the F80 Schirmer GT. Tim's driving skills are bar none and that full lap experience left me speechless. I know this really isn't pertaining to my car and build, I wanted to share and encourage folks to make a trip out there if you can. I absolutely enjoyed the experience, got to meet incredible people in person that I didn't think I would have been able to do. |
