Anyone interested in crewing for Afro Speed at Gridlife circuit legends this coming weekend.

Had a seat in the truck open up so if anyone happens to have the freedom to leave midday Wednesday and not come back till Monday at the crack of dawn, hmu.

All expense paid, only prerequisite is that you can fit in the backseat of a crew cab ram and that you're somewhere in STL or between here and there.

Pic for attention.

If you're in the STL area in a couple weeks come out and say hey!

We're going to grind hard to try and have the WRX up and running to do ride alongs on the Rallyx course, but worst case scenario we'll have the S2k hanging out at our booth.

Installing a oil pan and pickup on this today. It's a super nice kit that includes lots of useful hardware bits and baffling which will help protect against oil starvation as well as doing away with the factory pickup tube which is a known failure point on the old motors. Also love the fact that this pan seals with an O-ring rather than RTV, kind of a cool solution.

One of the coolest creature comfort things that does on their coilovers is the clamp style locking rings. It may not matter a lot to some people but to anyone who sets up and regularly tweaks their set ups it's a game changer.

KW suspensions goes hard on their ride height specs.

Had the pleasure of installing a BBK and some KW V3s on this 230i and this stance is within their recommended ride height specs.

Can't wait to see how this thing looks on its track wheels when the season starts and we're even more excited to see how the alignment specs work out at Ozarks International Raceway in a few months.
