Default IPG Getting Ready for the Shootout...

yep, we are still kicking here and the storage spot of a race car is still around...

...got a new Exospeed front end fitted this past week.

we aren't undergoing any major changes this year with the car, just hoping to make some solid, consistent passes and have some good fun as always.

Hopefully do some testing for the Shootout very shortly.

Looks good, but you might want to turn the box around the extra drag could slow you down.

Looking Good James, What are you going to use for storage at the shop when you actually use the car?

it really wasn't too bad at all -- Ferguson did all the test fitment, trimming, etc as necessary in an hour or so and he is not an experienced body man at all, just using common sense -- the fitment is pretty good with the front end.

Greddy 3 Row Intercooler Core -- Turned Upside Down.

that is the same intercooler we have been running since 2004 -- amazing how well it fit into the opening of the Exospeed front end -- we didn't modify it at all
