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.

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...

Gotta pace yourself and turn down 'The Rolling Weld Manner of Things' hype machine a little, Big Daddy!

18 weeks was the quoted delivery date -- I'm HOPING it's ready for the Buttonwillow event. If not - I will be sorely disappointed.

Just an update which may or may not make sense -- but I have to have approval from Gwen before I can finalize ANYTHING --- Todd and Dave will discover this shortly.

I was going to paint the big ole POS PPG Barcelona Blue --- but GWEN wants it to match her R8 --- so Lava Grey it is!

Washing either one is going to be a complete PITA --- so it's okay.

That will look good.

Some things are better left up to the little woman!

Gwen made the right call!

And you're right about the decision making process.... why do you think I'm getting a detuned Nascar motor... it was all Suzie Q's idea.

Like you preach... marry well!

Speak for yourself, I still wear the pants around here. At least until I say I does. Ha
