And just for the record..... One must actually have posted up a video of real track time in order to have a "man card"... (well - except Todd - he had to forfeit his after he got scared and sold the car).


Just sayin' <grin>

Sonoma?? Should we order up the quarters now or just wait? LOL


Looking good Ron, I m with the other guys, need to moon walk those house slippers around Dicks shop a bit.

Workin' on it Vince! :cheers:

So Elvis has an update...

The car made it over to BoS. You might've heard about the SD fire last week. I was in Florida - sweating it out - but in the end the shop and all the cars were OK! For a while there we thought it might be an evacuation situation. :getout:

The little stuff is just about done. The remaining list is so small it's ridiculous. Brakes are bedded. Motor/trans/rear is broken in, somewhat. Fluids are changed and ready to rock n roll...:D

Spolier and tow hooks are on.

Rollbar seatbelt mod is done and shoulder harness is installed.

Standard PT fender braces are on.
http://i885.photobucket.com/albums/a...ps252fd967.jpg

Track ride height is set, I think. Might take another .5" or so in the rear.

Stay tuned on that.

Bad news is I'm working the balance of the week and family stuff Saturday so I'll have to wait until next week to pick it up. Also looks like I'm on the road for work most of June, so home brew break in and track testing plans are up in the air. But...I'm on it :thumbsup:

Matt says it drives like a new car (I agree). Dick says I've got a traction problem. I can live with that...:D

Car looks great Ron. Even better in person!!

I was actually at BOS the day of the fire and helped push your car and a couple others in the shop. The fire was really bad. On my way out of the shop i counted at least 8 choppers dropping water.

Thanks Efrain! Nice to have friends who have your back. :grouphug:

I'd consider raising the front .5" :underchair:

I'd really like to hear George Carlin's perception of tow hooks on a car of this caliber. :sieg:
