    I thought this was a really cool photo. So I bought it. Prob the only one of my car I will have. Looks like it launches pretty flat.

    It looks good, I wanted a pic of mine like that but apparently the track I was at only takes pics of the fast cars. BTW you have a fog lamp out lol.

    I don't know about Canada but here in the states park/signal lamps need an amber bulb, those appear to have white light coming from them that's why I said fog lamp.

    Im pretty sure the light is fine. Must just be the angle of the photog vs the direction the light is pointed. But ill check. Itll be a good reason to get out for a night drive.

    The tires are 265/35-18 front and 295/35-18 rear.

    In Canada we don't use turn signals, we just stick a tree branch out the window, and point.

    Check out the"My project page" link in my sig for details but the basics are, torque arm rear suspension, total control products front suspension, and most importantly, wheel lip modification.
