This is JHRS's time. I can't tell you how many times I heard the term "Industrial" on Power Tour. Made me laugh a little. Smooth everything is yesterday's news.

funny thing is, if you put my Cuda and the orange/Black one from over here in Cumming with the Viper motor and Scissor doors in a ISCA show..he'd get lots more votes than me. A whole different mentality at those venues..Most of the spectators are not real enthusiasts. An ISCA show car winner willl not even get a pity pick at a Goodguys event..and vice versa. The focus of the builds are completely different..I'm not very concerned if I have a bit of dirt on top of my muffler that can't be seen..Lots of the show guys have cars that won't drive 10 miles without scraping the exhaust or breaking something..The whole focus is chrome and shine..All of my cars in the last 6 years haven't had enough chrome to sneeze at..I do like the "business look" on a hot rod...aircraft/industrial look for me

Bob your car has more thought and design, than any functional car I have seen in a LONG time. I can't wait to see it in Columbus.

Cool! Hope to meet some of you down there.

Bob, I hear ya on the industrial look! I don't take my mine to car shows anymore, only to Woodward. It seem like the more chrome the better up here, Plus there's no innovation. Can't wait to get down there and see the Cuda up close, and hopefully meet you in person!
