The car is getting super close to being ready for the season now.

Major things left:
- install numbers and decals
- rebuild shocks, install (waiting on rebuild kit)
- minor season maint, oils, fluids, yada yada

Panasports?

That lower spoiler looks tough! Good one.

Yep, 14x7 Ultralight Panasport Racing wheels. A little under 14 pounds each.
Also have a set of Borbet Type C up on the rack, they are right around 14 pounds. Unfortuneately discontinued last year.

Seems quite low in the rear considering it is an old high arch e30 like mine. Is it that low in the rear because of that 80gallon fuel tank back there? LOL

Curious question, if it's OK to ask... how much money and time have you invested in that car? And what do you do when you're not working on it?

How much money? Um, a lot. I actually haven't worked on it that much this winter, just started tearing it apart in January.
The last month has been kind of hectic getting it put back together for the first race coming up on 4/18.

When I'm not working on this, I'm working on one of my other vehicles or helping other people work on theirs, or teaching at the race track.
