W/ the wing glass it doesn't look so bad. Careful not to catch the buckle in the back of your shoulder on exit (it'll happen eventually and hurts like HELL!)

When racing, I see most people do hand signals inside the car. I generally did the same. The guys in open top cars w/ arm restraints can't do much of anything.

Looks like its coming along. I would have cleaned up and rattle-can painted the oil-line brackets before installing to stop the rust and make them last. Use weld-through primer on the areas where the wevo mounts go to protect the metal under the brackets after install (don't forget to prime the area of the torque tube someone hit with the grinder). You might want to paint the roll cage soon, too, before you get any more stuff installed in the car you don't want painted with roll cage color paint. It will save time masking.

X2 that due to the vent window, the net appears to be in a reasonable placement.

Make sure you practice installing the window net by yourself while you're in the car. The top rod on mine goes into a bracket that's impossible to see from the seat. Not a problem if you have a crew member, but required lots of practice to learn to do it myself while seated. You don't want this to delay you for your first on-track session during your Comp School.....

Looks like the project coming along nicely....
