The one great thing that I really like about the Optima challenge is that it is connected to SEMA and that they do call it a "street car invitational".
This element keeps our builders creative juices flowing and the only boundary is that it has to be a street car. I think this way we will continue to see some really creative interiors being built along with some really cool looking race inspired cars.
Todd mentioned that he would rather have a race car but I disagree with his statement only because I have seen his car and his lap times. His car is one of the prime examples tailored to these events.
Brian's car is another good example. Creative and race inspired. He knows the rules of the event and I can gaurantee we will see working windows in that car just because he has that competitive edge to him and enjoys these events.
I dont want anybody to take what I said in the wrong context. Yes, we are building race cars, but street legal ones with style.
