I have already gutted my interior. Maybe I will look at doing this in the future!

Well I am sure there is still some more I could do for it to be considered 100% gutted, but I have basically removed everything from the front seats back. My plan was to gut the front but people were steering me away from that because of issues with wet feet and the exposed metal floor, I was thinking bed liner but I am also not sure I have the space in my garage to take all the stuff out and get in and do that. When I get more space I will probably take the time to remove and potentially upgrade the seats and do bed liner in the front so I won't have to worry about wet shoes and such. Plus I keep the mat on the passenger side, I took my out of the drivers side though.
Brian I don't know if you have heard or seen my car yet but it's already pretty obvious. I don't think the cops are observant enough to spot a 6 point cage either, it pretty much follows the lines that are already in the car, unless of course they pull up beside me.

I hope I haven't offended you Ron, but stock brakes hold back fast auto cars just fine. You don't sit at the line with 1000hp, you know that. Brakes - use an electric vacuum pump in a racing application so you can stage the car consistently and also hold the brakes. Braking capacity should not be increased beyond this level as all you will do is then be able to easily hold enough torque to break transmission gears on the line. Jesse and his brothers all run stock brake setups, and they seem to work just fine for them. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=scSI39-SiTE

New billet chute lever Didn't realize cars get pushed around a shop fast enough to need a chute I wanna see/hear this thing running already! If I wasn't playing with this all summer it would be running Oh, I know, I've seen the posts on Facebook! I may be a little jealous on that front. That being said, I'm itching to see what the yellow beast will be capable of!
