Road Racers Unite: Post your road race setup

I feel that the grip 240s don't get enough recognition so lets see you raod course setup. Post a pic (action shot if you got it) and some details of your setup.

Here is ours although its a work in progress. I will replace it with a finished pic when done.

Haven't tried road racing yet but I really want to! With the exception of springs and struts(KG/MM,KYB AGX), these are pre-suspension upgrade shots.

Well, if anyone needs any information on any events, especially regarding the SCCA, I'd be more than willing to help out, there's a lot to know before hitting a true road course.

Cost wise, if you're on a budget, your best bet is going to be attending an HPDE or Track Day, those are the most cost effective way to see a road course, anything else is going to cost you lots of money, not only in modifying your car for purpose-track-use, but in attending and racing.

Anyway, here are some picture from my team, Night Majik Enterprises and The Mid-Atlantic North East Drift Association:

That's about it, for the future, I plan on calling on the spirits of the Swedish and getting a Volvo 740 TiC and seeing just how she handles around the bends.
