800CA, so that is what, 500-600CCA (I seem to remember the gell's drop off a bit in the cold, not that it matter much in FL)? I'm sure it'll be fine, just won't run accessories for a long time, sure light. I use to run dry cell in my stereo competition cars, 1200CCA.

It'll be fine for the track, I'm looking forward to seeing your times, 13.2 is impressive.

It'll work, they just have shorter lifespans than the factory sized batteries and they struggle in the cold (you get a little of that in NJ).
Wes, you just want it for the 'cool carbon case' you CF junkie!

Props for keeping all your CF in check though - your car is ultra clean mate, not overdone & gawdy at all.
