With everything else done on the car I can't understand why someone would roll out without have the aftermarket headlight housings painted up. It's like buying a new Rolex and wearing it around without having the band resized.

You must have nice roads up in Sacto though, those rubber band tires that G is running would never work around here. It could maybe drive a couple of miles before popping one and dinging a rim.

"...without have(ing) the aftermarket headlight housing painted up"
It is 'painted up'.
It is normally chrome.

Or.....he has a street set and a show set.....
I raced an Rx7 in SCCAII showroom stock many yrs ago. My track tires fit in the area under the rear hatch - all 4 flat in the space. The street tires overlapped and barely fit.

It must be me that's missing something, I think they look like unprimered plastic. In any case, it seems like odd colour choice. I'd either go for a contrasting colour or a spot-on match, with the white wheels I'd have certainly gone for the match.

I'm betting those tires were smaller than the ones on that G too. Having a set of wheels & tires that you don't really drive on is something I never understood, but I drive a pretty stock Z and I know a lot people that don't understand that either...especially when they see me going out for a drive in the snow. But you can give 100 people the same car and you'll hear 100 different opinions on what you do to (and with) it. And every one of them is right.

Got any pics of your old SCCA sled?
