    Wow!! What a girl! What a race girl!

    Not with the 818 in the background but still, we're talking talents here, not cars! Congrats, huge ones! If you ever read this.

    Thanks everyone Glad the 818 made a cameo appearance as well.

    Don't worry, the 818 is coming out at the end of September (as soon as we get back from nationals with the RX8) and will start racing again.
    Not sure if you guys saw, but I also posted a photo of the finished flares in our build thread. 315's with 18x11's now fit easily. I am REALLY excited to try the car out with the wider tires now.
