I asked the last owner about that before I bought the car and he said the lift his shop used on it pinched it over.
Its only partially folded over and can come back just fine.
I am waiting till I buy my Kenny Brown Extreme Matrix kit with jacking rails to bend it back over.
I have looked over the under chassis pretty well, that is all there is it looks like.
There is only a very minor scrape on the front of the lower rad support, not even bent.
Probably from a parking divider.

btw, the damage to the fender is in two spots too.
The Upper dent and the lower behind the tire.
The front side skirt cap is loose from the lower damage on the fender so it looks a little funky at that angle.
I was going to fix it either when I get a new fender.
I am kinda thinking of Tiger Racing's wide front carbon fenders, but I am not going to do a lot of Open Track so I probably wont bother with it till I am back in California and much closer to tracks.
The closest track out here is Hallett motorway in Oklahoma.

My computer is weak as hell and having a really hard time playing back clips in Sony Vegas Pro 10.
I am going to upload some small samples tonight of the drags and my headlight resto vid.
If anyone can play 720 and 1080p perfectly on YouTube let me know how it plays.

I will try to hit the strip for each mod but some will be coupled together.
I have to go get a baseline hp number this week without the tune and one with.
$55 for three runs, seems good to me.

Im itching to turn out the 98 on the strip, the the open rear diff makes for bad tire spin off the line, nevertheless ill prob make an appearance at the local strip after I get some good tires on her. Guess Ill just hold my head up high and run my 17Et with pride.

Rained out Fri-Sat this week so no new times. :/
Hope everyone is having a good Easter though.
I think April could have ran about a 1/10 quicker had I had the shift point lower.
First takes you all the way to 55mph before shifting but there is a pretty strong lag right before shifting.
I am going to try for a better time Friday before putting the MotoBlue UDP's in for Saturday. Friday is suppose to be Sunny, Sat might rain but then again this is Missouri so who knows for sure.
Here is the track site for those that want to keep up on the schedule.
