Oh, and it looks great btw.

So if my math serves me correct - I'm 10 years into this endeavour and I'm 45, this gives me 10 more years of cushion, right? At 20 years this could set a new record! When I put it like that it's depressing!

Holy crap! I just looked up Audemars Piguet watches. 300K ? That's insane. I knew if I couldn't pronounce it I couldn't afford it - but this a whole different world!

Wish I had the $$ to spend on a watch like that! I sport a Suunto Core and it's $200.00 price tag was high in my book. I'm kinda hard on watches.

I'll trade you all my Rolex's for Laurie! Although I think she might have a bit to say about that... but you can't say I didn't TRY! LOL

Ummmmm yeah...NO!! If I see Curtis "sporting a Breitling".....then that means I'm going to be Suzy Freaking Homemaker from here on out.

I love you Curtis.....but let's just keep it to the car. My heart (and sanity level) can only handle so much right now.

Ok, now back to this Nickelback.......

Add some NACA ducts just ahead of the exhaust and as you move forward the air will flow. The bottom of the Lotus is just flat panels and the ducts are plastic - but it's this SHAPE - done in metal -- would like good and be effective.



















An article about why they're used etc.

A Sub-Mariner and a Daytona... and a few others all kept in a Brown Man Safe.
