Man I hope everyone comes by. If we could find a local spot for an autocross we could do a cookout here.

Not sure how I missed this thread!

Absolutely wonderful shop Tom.

I can only dream of having that much shop space, I really like the setup.

Tom, any thought to having the garage door track raised a foot or so? That would give a little more headroom at the door as well as more room at the opener...

Just a quick observation.

Shop looks great, though. Doing the construction right from what I can tell.

Not much going on with the shop lately. We've been busy getting the cars ready for events. I was able to get the pad formed up in front of the garage door and now just need to wait on the concrete guy. We hauled in pea gravel in the new truck. First load 4300 pounds, second load 7600 pounds. That's why we bought a one ton truck....

That's turning out so sweet Tom! Gotta love having a nice area - dry - warm and enough space to work!
