So now you're interpreting his intentions for the car? The spot which he has the cooler installed is indeed the best place to have an oil cooler. Not sure what you're smokin bro.

Do you follow him around to know whether he's been to the track or not?

Great pics and some pretty cars guys, nice work.
Basically after getting my carbon doors put on I was screwed and did not want to track until I got a full custom cage built. With time, money, and other constraints contributing to my slow search for a cage builder I wanted. I juggled with different cage builders and finally came across one I like and trust and our schedules have finally worked and I finally have the cash to do it and will be dropping the Z off this coming Monday. So hopefully, I will see more of you and Mike B out at the track soon

Cause you continually are insulting someone and have resulted to pure speculation based on zero facts.

This was such a good start to a thread and now it's just a playground for king of the hill. I say the OP post some more pics to get this thread back on topic.

One of the reasons why I've always like Rick's car is that he refuses to go FI for the right reasons. A track car isn't all about hp. Braking, weight, and handeling are just as important. I would never go with FI for my car either, simply cause I don't have skills or the need for it on a track.

Following Rick's development of his car these last few years, I can assure you that he takes great consideration into every mod with one purpose in mind, making the car a better track car. I can respect that.
