Default Thompson Speedway 04.22.2021 - w/ V720

(3x) trackdays with Kumho's V720 (265/35R18) an they are garbage. Ran 3+ seconds slower & the front tires over heated by lap 5 every time. I'd guess this is why these tires delaminate.

Some images of the new Greddy Titanium Turndown Tip 150x115mm 11002122 on our cars. Pics (and my camera) don't do this tip justice, it's beautiful.

Have you noticed under hood/ coolant temps have decreased with those hood vents?

Yes, temps are lowered. I don't have metrics. But the TMIC doesn't heat soak nearly as fast anymore.

*It's obvious when the TMIC is heat soaked, the loss of power, top speed, & lap times.

This is a sick build! I see you have a professional photographer, but do you have any videos? I'd love to hear it!

The clubs typically have a pro-photographer, I didn't hire anyone.

As for Vids I have quite a few requests, I will pick up a Camera next season (& learn how to edit).

What a great build! Very high quality choices all the way through.

Nice attention to detail on the port matching.

The hood vents both look really nice, and that they have a noticeable effect on cooling is great.

Thank you.

Yes, the Verus hood vents are functional at trackdays (+ Koyorad). On the DOT roads, I can't image they are necessary (apart from cosmetics).

Default Lamin-X Film - Headlights How to Install

How to install Lamin-X Headlight Film... Don't

I had success with the Lamin-X Fogs on the WRX & Outback so I went the next step and ordered the headlights.

But had no success & ended up removing them. No matter what I tried they bunched up. I do not recommend installing the headlight film yourself. The are not meant to be installed by the average consumer. Very unpleasant experience.



I ended up removing them & reaching out to Lamin-X... I'll keep you post on their response.


Also, if you are wondering if they up/fill in scratched & fogginess, they do not. The film just made it look worse IMHO. Use a restore kits & skip the film.
