You can look all you want but you have to get your hands dirty to have experience.

Absolutely...but I've already been through a few rodeo's with builds that are closely related to this PT stuff, i.e. vehicles built that required with low-volume custom components.

I also will wait for certain key items to come on the market. I don't like having just one choice whenever possible. And they're about ready.

What I like is seeing guys working hard to to keep improving their cars, and really pushing the envelope.

You've got about 100x more patience than I have Skip.

Thanks D.

But after all the train wrecks my impatience caused, I'm not sure its patience making me take my time, just the body cast.

Curious what key items you're waiting for Skipper? Direct Injection? Wait till the aftermarket gets ahold of that! Can you say 24:1?

Direct injection that will be cool (no pun intended lol) when 'we' get it.

My key item? It's a big ticket piece that if I mentioned it might weaken my negotiating stance.


But I can tell you about my other big news...marketed directly at the spoiled lil brats whose parents give them everything. It's called...
