A light duty bungee cord around back and top to the roll bar would put my mind to ease.. Just in case..

clintavo, What is that cover on your passenger seat? Car is looking great. The cover From Corbeau: corbeau.com/other/accessories/seat-saver.htmlI stitched a button in the middle to attach to the seat belts. After installing the wind shield, the low pressure zone behind the wind screen caused it to billow out.

My original brake solution was: Carbotech XP8s in the front, OEM rear pads, and an early NA prop valve (more restrictive). This quelled the early rear brake lockup, while retaining unbelievable stopping distances. But when really hammering through tight downhill canyons, the rears would heat up and lose bite, leading to more understeer while braking. Now XP8s all around with a Wilwood adjustable proportioning valve. Past 10k miles now.

Hi Clint, Noticed you are in Thousand oaks from a few posts back. I'm in Camarillo, and just went for my first cruise around the block yesterday. I picked up the XP-3 chassis from Exomotive on my move out here from Maryland last year. Now there will be 2 green Exocets tooling around our immediate area.
If you feel like making a trip down the grade this weekend, I'll buy you a coffee and show you around my car. I'm ironing out suspension and should be applying for the SB100 this Friday. It would be cool to chat and get your opinion on a few things.
Cheers, Paul

I'd love to get together. PMd
Just got back from a canyon run. Turn in with trail braking is significantly improved, with the rear brakes doing more work.

Hey how's it going man. I just found out that you're in SoCal and have a registered Exo. I wanted to see if it's possible to meet up sometime and talk about the sb100 process. I'm in the process of putting the frame together now and soon it'll be driving. So I just want to prepare for the sb100 with the help of someone that went through it.

Paul, perhaps we could get together at your place Sunday?

Let me know if you SoCal Exocet owners meet up. I'd love to join in, although mine is not built yet... Maybe PM me so we can get a local group set up.
