way to go!!!car speaks for its self

Thanks Blake - like I mentioned with JF, comments like that coming from builders like yourself mean a lot. Spent some time chatting with your brother... are you sure that you two are related (lol). I did wind up getting a lot of questions about the front suspension and sent a couple of dozen people your way for control arms and some other goodies; made me think that I should have swapped the GW's out.

Standing around at an indoor show with a racecar must be painfully boring and is bad enough with a regular car but yours does look great under the lights! Way to go, James!

Funny thing, Blake who just posted above me is the only other person I've heard describe something as a "gong show" but as soon as I heard him say it, I know what he meant. I may have to borrow that from my Northern brothers!

Thanks Jason. I'm not much of a talker at the best of times (I've been told that I am socially developmentally challenged at best) so it was a bit uncomfortable at times. The car got a fair bit of attention and ultimately a lot of questions - some from experienced guys and some from some of the younger kids. I had to remind myself of how I was when I was there age and still learning and dreaming.

Another cool part of the weekend was when an old racing mentor - Andy - came by and looked over the car. He knows his race cars and his first gen Camaro's and it was nice to have been able to impress him with the final product. He had seen it at SEMA but we didn't have a chance to talk.

For what it's worth Jason - your famous up here in the great white north now... I spent one long day in my Rushforth Design's T-shirt that I won at the PT dinner last fall. :thumbsup:

James it looks like the car show went well. Did you bring you lawn chair? I did not see the cry baby kid leaned up against the front tire. Come on you have to have it all, to win. No cry baby no trophy.

Lets get that bad boy to Cali so we can hit the track.

LOL !!!!!!!!!!!! yea the baby or the guy working under the car!


car looks great as always james! and not surprised on bit with the awards it took home!

Thanks Jay.
I had to have Rodger explain to me the crying kid thing... I had never seen or heard of it before (did I mention - not a car show guy). I was going to tell the touching story of the little kid who wanted a picture with the car but was to short to get a good pic... I lifted him into the display and let him lean on the tire like he owned it... instead I find out that you "car show guys" down there lean dolls up against your tires... really?

yea i dont know why they do it... its pretty chezzy, you see it at goodguys shows quite a bit. some people also have the lower half of a man doll lying under the car!

BOY, You Canadians miss out on all the fun. A

Thanks for representing, James! That's cool and glad to have a shirt on your back!
