My finger is still in bad shape, but it is healing around the stitches. Got the livery on courtesy of Mike @ AutoXGraphics.com

Pull to the right is also gone with a proper corner balance - so I didn't crush my finger for nothing!

I might be out for Vegas. The finger was pretty gruesome and hurts like hell... on track for stitch removal right before leaving, but that means rushing the prep.

Recommended: dial in your spring rates and corner weights.

Not recommended: crush your middle finger between a wheel spoke and caliper rolling the car off the scales.

At least the car weighs 2000 pounds. A 4000lb car might have taken my finger with it. 13 stitches and a permanent middle finger.
