I picked up the freshly finished one-off wheels from Chris Coddington last thursday night! Then off to the tire shop for mounting the next morning.

That is so freaking cool to see it next to the plane! Masterful job of capturing the essence of it. I bet it was well received.

Awesome pics.

Very cool pics. That plane is just fantastic.

My wife and I had a great time at the airshow. A lot of people loved it, some had no clue what was happening. However, after some brief explanation they got it and loved it as well. I forget most people have probably never seen a car being built like this ever. It was a great experience.

Thanks!

It was even more fantastic to go for a ride in it!

Congratulations on the firist showing and the new sponsor.
Wow that must have been an amazing ride!

Thanks, It was one of the coolest things I have ever experienced. Unbelievable feeling flying in that glass nose
