WOW....seems like such a short time ago you were showing us new paint and engine pictures! That came out just amazing. I know you took some flack with some of the boards, but its your car, and to me its awesome.

How was the reaction to the car at the show? You bag some awards with it??

Good to hear you made it...you earned it with that time table!

Thanks for the update
Tim

Be proud, looks great. Doesn't really matter what others think anyway, I've had people dump on my projects too. You have to do what you like.

Turned out awesome!! Especially for the very short time you built the car in. What's your next project?

Lightbulb I feel a POSTER coming on!!!

Wow!!!! What a car. Just as the flames indicate - its HOT!

Here is an idea.....Lets sweet talk Kris Horton in to doing a poster (pro bono) to raise money for the site.

I know I'll be in for one!
