yes - 16" bridge spokes. I've not taken any pictures of the cloth seats because they have been well documented on other threads - I'll try to remember to get my wife's camera

Can someone PM me as to where I can find instructions on getting photos embedded in posts here? I looked around and only saw instructions for pulling pics out of the gallery to use in posts
Tks Jim

One way of doing it:

Type [img] and then [/img], with no spaces in between them, into your post. Put the picture you want to post onto a web-hosted photo sharing site such as yahoo or photobucket (there are tons of them), or save them to your NAM photo gallery page. Then go to whatever picture you want to insert and right click on it. Click on 'Properties,' and highlight the url of the pic. While its hi-lighted, push ctrl+C (copy). Then put your cursor in between the [img] and the [/img] and hit ctrl+V (paste). When you post your reply, the image should show up.

Are those vinyl stripes available through the dealer? I like them much better than the factory stripes. Nicely done!

They should be. Ask about Sport Stripes. One kit is for the body (bonnet/boot) the other for the roof. Available in black or white. They list red stripes for the roof, so if you have a CR/W car, you can go white on the bonnet and boot and red on the roof.

Thanks everyone.. It was awesome fun, increadible car - I want to go back on the track now!

Glad you like my stripes thanks, I am so pleased with them .. They are the dealer fitted viper stripes, with custom Laser Blue stripes made up for the roof.. If you go for the sports stripes be aware that they don't go all the way to the bottom of the car like the vipers do, they stop at the bonnet/boot and don't go down the bumpers (maybe different in the US)..

I didn't manage to get a lap time which was stupid of me considering the R56 w/Sat Nav has a stop watch feature Next time i'll remember!

With all of the great pictures of CR, LB, MY and PW cars that have been posted lately, I was beginning to second guess my choice.

Not anymore, thanks to you & JDR.
