I'm sorry; maybe it's just the angle in that pic... But it really doesn't look like the front is _this_ wide:

If it is... Sorry; must just be the angle.

Not as wide (as far as i can tell) in the front as a PTG. It's GTR up front, PTG ass. I'm usually a fan of having the front wider for aero purposes, but I have so much adjustment that rear track being wider may be a bonus IF my plan for the M5 V8 works out. Other wise, it may be beneficial since I'm converting to full coilovers and can go swaybar less for a true independant suspension.

Looking at the pic again, I'm probably really close to that wide, rears just look massive cuz of the bodywork they mate to iss a lot flatter in the rear.

Cool.

Also; silly comments aside - you do realize that everyone who has posted in this thread wishes they had a e36 wide body track dog to play with too... So do keep us posted on how it treats you on the track.

Sorry I missed this! Update with pics or tubgirl pics shall infest this thread.

I can account for how sweet this car looks in person. The first time I dropped off my front bumper for paint I don't think you were around Phil, but I spent a good 15 minutes just staring at that thing by your shop. Sick indeed.

On a side note....anyone in NE who isn't getting their paintwork done at Sansossio Auto Body (Phil's shop) should kick themselves directly in the gonads.

He does great work. Thanks man! - Seth

Thanks for the kind words Seth. Kicking people in the gonads has crossed my mind.

Huh? No, I crashed in montreal with the old widebody. I do my own work. Seb is a good friend, have been racing with him for a few years. If you hang around a paddock, you will hear many stories of me and Seb dueling, especially in the rain.

Season is almost done, just got back from New Hampshire. Could only pull off a 2nd place, ground cable to the battery broke and gave me the power of a modded 318.

Got some pics and maybe some in car, but the glare from the lexan windshield is not looking promising.

But, the "big crash" vid is getting close to being released!
I get almost a month off till Roebling Road in Savannah Georgia, maybe more. I forget the date. All I know is it will be freezing here by then.

Tremblant crash vid! It's finally here! You'll need a flash player to watch it and it'll take awhile to download.
