Smile This looks serious about going to the track

Not sure who this is - perhaps on the forums ? I snapped these pictures while driving through the neighborhood - never seen this car before..check the custom licenses plate !! pretty legit !! Well done and nice set-up to whom ever this fine M3 belongs to.

That's NRBRNG - He is one of the fastest guys up here in the Pac NW! If he's in your rear view mirror, just submit and do an automatic point-by.. no point fighting it

Thanks Vivek, only in NASA TT though...I am really courteous all other times
The Yoko decals are for the TT2 contingency program. The OP snapped this after the NASA event at the Ridge, and getting ready to roll with the very nice (and fast) Porsche Train guys out at ORP. BTW, shameless plus plug here...the Yoko A005 slicks are fantastic.

^ Car looks absolutely beautiful. That's just how I would set it up if time, money, and wife would allow.

BTW, gonna try the Cobalt pads on my ST-60s next event.

How do you go about front tie down with the lip mark? Need to come up with a way onto trailer and up drive once I place aero. Car looks good as always.

I use J hooks that go into the front jacking points. Even with the splitter you can still attach to the trailer D rings. in the rear I just put a a steel loop on the bottom of each shock tower for the strap hook to attach. All works great.
As for ramps, contact Fred at Reverse Logistics. He's great. Cheers.
