Didn't miss a thing. Trackrat learned his lesson the hard way and I never made the mistake to begin with. Steel for the win.

I agree, made the same mistake here too. Just curious. If I could do it all over, I would go steel all the way.

Good luck.

Oh please...you have an amazing car to enjoy and you drive it very well. I feel fortunate to simply share a run session with you!

So I spec'd out the car today:

Darth Vader Car
Black
Red/Black interior
Carbon buckets (of course)
Black wheels
LW headlights
CDR-30 delete

That's it! Dark and light. Should have a build date tomorrow. Very exciting. You all talked me out of the Air cond delete and I still feel bad for not clicking the delete box

Some real enthusiasts have ordered/will order this car and that makes me happy to see. Should be some amazing on track video on the 'tubes by fall of this year.

Don't think that I could delete A/C but I'm happy to talk you into doing so if want. Just say the word.

I wouldn't delete the AC. You never know, there may come a day you may want to sell it, and besides few areas in the west coast I don't think there many other that can live without an AC. That is one option that makes a difference IMHO.

What makes the RS 4.0 special is the fact that it is so good yet still a street car. Radio delete, sure. But I would keep a/c and the HID headlights. Eventually you get diminishing returns trying to save the last couple lbs on a street car.

If you're ready to get rid of all creature comforts, maybe a cup car is in your future.

To me this is more of a barely street legal race car but I agree one must eventually fish or cut bait

The dealer and I wrapped it all up today and popped the car into the system. July build Very exciting. I can't wait to hammer this bad-boy on track.
