Looking good, how much rake angle will you run on the floor before the diffuser? 10 years sure goes by quick.
Kinetic, no rake angle is planned, but some will likely creep in during set up. The floor has some curvature built in ahead of the diffuser, though. See pic below. The straight edge follows the flat floor plane.

MangPong, since the strakes do not extend below the floor plane, it would be difficult for anything to get under the car and sliced and diced by the strakes. Good point to consider, though. I'll have to be careful backing up.
Lonnie, removable panels are nice when maintaining (or reworking) the car. The trade-off is flat panels will likely rattle/buzz a bit more than riveted panels. Nothing a dab of silicon can't fix, though. I copied the attachment technique
mgkluft used. A bit of extra work to make and weld on all the floating nut plates. Your 12-year build is coming along nicely! Great attention to detail.
Rtz, give me a holler when you are up this way. Would love to have you stop by. I may be in Portland this spring. I'll try to connect with you as well.
Perry, vroom-vroom sounds definitely coming. The rotisserie kind of cramped my style on those.
