Thank you!

And thanks for all the compliments fellas!

BuddyP over at Pro-touring said that I haven't updated things in a while and I thought what the hell... let's keep'er rolling!

Ok, where to start... Well, I got on TV, 3 times!... LOL! That's a start.

I haven't seen it yet, but the MAV TV premiere of the OUSCI race showed a few very clear shots of my car. Here's one and in the panning shot you can see the girlfriend riding shot gun.

Then, I volunteered to be a part of the demonstrations for Car Craft Magazine Summer Nationals because they needed "pretty cars" for the cameras LOL. Kinda neat to the an autox all to myself!

Channel 9 did a full 2 minute deal with the car where the reporter rode with me, MA Rosko is her name and she was really fun to have with!

Here's the shot of the interview I gave.

A shot of her on LIVE TV... If you look closely you can see the wide eyed grin expression HA!

Some of you may know Jesse Riggle and Troy Borgen. I hosted them at my house during the Car Craft show. Jesse had an accident and flipped his trailer, which held his twin turbo Trans-Am. It didn't fair well unfortunately, but Jesse was unhurt.

Hot rodding isn't always about wrenching on cars.

Went to a car show with a axle dyno by TPIS of CHaska MN. Not bad, 450rwhp. Feels slow *sad face*

Wanted SOOOO badly to try out the new rubber at the last autox of the year, but it rained... so poop on that idea.

Yea.. its wet. I still beat a couple C6's so i feel better.

Finally, in the winter there's not a lot of racing opportunities unless you have a snow rally car. So, my boy (he's 3) loves racing GT5 on my PS3 with the wheel. I asked him if he wanted a go-kart.... I think we have another racer on our hands!

That's all for now!

I figured that having 450 to the wheels and finishing 20th out of 71 cars at OPTIMA on the big course was a win for me!

Most of those cars are pushing 6-700rwhp easily.

Hey Eric, I love the car...

I followed the build thread over on pro touring for most of it, saw the car at the CC Summer Nationals the last two years, looks great!

I'm in the Red Wing area and I'm building a '69, planning on starting a build thread on here soon.

Maybe when it's done I can hire you to take some photos?

Do you know if Nate from One guys does TIG welding? I've got pretty much everything covered with the build but there are a few parts I'd like to have TIG'd by someone with skills, haha.

CarCraft 2013 Autocross

I don't recall if you linked this already. I found it when trying to find the dates for 2014 while scheduling vacation dates.
