Put me on the notification list for the next round too. If I can't bring a car, at least I can come watch and hang out.
But I think a rental car for the day (with the extra insurance of course ) would be a blast!
I can hear the G6 tires screaming now.....warped rotors? What warped rotors?

I can see it now Eric. You go to the check-out counter and say:
Yeah, you guys may want to check the brakes, they weren't working so well!! lol

Always turn it in after hours. Just drop the keys in the drop box and walk away. The brakes and tranny usually stop smoking by morning.....

Jayson --

I have an LS6 under the stairs in the "shed".... LOL


That's the 'plan' for the Minotti... Think you saw the chassis for it when you and Chris came over...

I like the PT "Minotti" thinking. It would be so different -- but kind of like what Factory Five is "inventing" with their new '33. I'd have dropped the 37 project for a FF '33 -- but they didn't stick to the FF (Factory FORD) size... killed it for me. Now it just looks like a "kit car". Well --- all of them EXCEPT the one Blake did!

If you ('cause you'll be B U S Y) have time at LV -- we'll start on small 'ideas' for the '37. I'm sure - now that we've started this -- there'll be "others" (spelled EVERYBODY) chiming in with "do this" or "do that" or "you know what would REALLY be kool!".....

Think I'll have to open a new thread rather than HIJACK this one! This is about YOU buddy not me!!

I am loving this shot!

what Jason is gracious enough to not share is that My wife and I were sharing the same late model car and she beat me by over a second! She's addicted- it was our first time out, what a blast.

The pics don't do the GTR or other high end cars justice, they were awesome!!
