Another ITR car is born :)

I got first dent on that puppy!!! Making sure I will qualify RIGHT behind Mr. Blethen :-)

That right rear quarter looks tasty....
 
Yikes! This thread turned on me real quick!!

And Porsche steel is good strong German steel. ;)

There is certainly something to be said for that... during this build I have certainly figured out why these cars are half the price of a german car... you need to be careful what you lean on for sure!

Geze guys. Lets do this right. Denting it out on the track would be a little bit of fun, but wouldn't it be more if a tow vehicle accidently backed up into it? Or maybe some kids bike? Worst case I know a guy at LRP who could help and is experienced with a tow truck.

<ducks as Stephen thows large object towards CT>
 
I have a great video of those LRP tow truck drivers! I was asked by LRP to keep it to myself... they really are wrecker drivers!

Isaac's bike may be stolen at the glen ;)
 
Only goofing on ya bud - no plans of becoming Banzai Ben of New Hampshire again :-) We got those bimmers to worry about. You, me and Steve got to work out a plan...

Maybe we start by pitting the Jim Locke Motorsports guys against the Autotechnic guys by using fake FaceBook posts about their...orientations - then when they wreckout behind us we race each other!
 
Figured I would post up here rather than making a new thread... The RX8 ITR car is almost done again!!!

After this accident I was a bit worried at how long it would be before I got it back on track!

It's finally showing some progress and coming along nicely. Mike Lavigne at Auto Re-Nu-It in Manchester NH did an amazing job fixing it. This week we just finished re-painting the entire front of the car (Shell) so now we will start putting everything back together. I have purchased all the parts I think I need and now it's just a race against the clock to get it back together! I have a lot of work committments but I can say with almost certanty that I will be back out with it at LRP for The NARRC Runoffs! It took a little longer than planned because I did that WC race but I am very excited to get my own car back out on track :)
