If the Torino wins... there'll be no livin' with Rob. OMG!
Better start preparing for it now GW This thread alone has double digit "that Torino is it" quotes to be used for eternity.

I agree, the winner is apparent.

Haha, Rob will probably be upset that everyone will think the Rad Rides/Poteet creation is what all Torinos look like, except for a few fancy added touches...

Hot off the presses but no real surprise, Poteet's Torino is your 2013 SMOY. Well deserved incredible car built by an incredible team

Congrats to Poteet/Rad Rides - that's a combination that's having a huge impact on the hobby/industry.

I still may not make it this year, but am glad I got to follow this build in pics, and see the car in bare metal last year. As slick as they look, the final finishes hide a lot of the insanity that it takes to get there. Glad to see it was appreciated. That car really is incredible; details in the details kind of thing...

I agree, I think the Torino is the winner. It's definately something different than the norm 69, 1st gens, Nova's, etc. After the Torino wins....(enters Rob)

We ended up top 5 with ENCORE!!!! There's nothing better than being in the top 5 with two ridler builders (Greening auto with 2 cars and rad rides with one) and the Goolsby boys!!! It's been a great weekend and there were several very nice cars that didn't make the top 5 that easily could have!! Oh and that Torino wow that's a car that anybody would be proud to get beat by!!!!! Ill post up plenty of pics soon!!
