I was uncomfortable in Smiff’s S2K and if they are even close regarding interior dimensions, that would kill me. I’m not much taller than you guys (6’3") but I’m about 250… Is the roll-bar bolt in? ---

The roll bar is a Hard Dog bar, and is bolt-in. ---

Bump. I just had Ed Hutchins give the car a full re-tune on the dyno and the street. I was going to have him clean up some part throttle stuff, but we decided on a full re-tune. The car runs like a top. I took a few videos with my digital camera, but the audio is pretty bad. I’ll try to grab some other vids when it’s not raining here. Cold start video (the car isn’t as loud as it sounds, my garage and the crappy built in mic amplify everything at first) - [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e8btaKSTnv8](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e8btaKSTnv8) Rev video - [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WqzpG0wj-gE](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WqzpG0wj-gE) ---
