good luck with 1. and 2. I spent the better part of two months on mine only to realize there wasn't enough room with the radiator I have. Ended up compromising and kept it simple so I didn't spend money on a new radiator.

We need to finish the front aero and get the car painted.

Besides a couple of testNtune days at Cresson to decide whether we run the Penske or Ohlins shocks, the rest is top secret
