I'm writing this in a hotel room in the middle of Iowa. It's been an extremely busy month leading up to Columbus and I'm finally able to reflect on everything. Ive never been to "the big show", the car was virtually untested with about 4 or 5 miles on it,suspension setup was a wag, and i've never run an autocross before not to mention with someone else's expensive car! To say the least, I was a bit nervous.Well everything went pretty damn good. Although the heat was unbelievable, we were able to cruise the grounds with the AC on and no issues. After an easy first lap in the auto x the car felt very well and reminds me of a new vette the second lap was a moderate run due to I didnt want to push my luck but boy was it tempting! Im extremely happy with the balance and feel of the suspension even with no tweaking yet. The top 5 pick was the icing on the cake and I'm honored at the positive response we got. Congrats to RB on their win as it was well deserved, when i saw that car at SEMA i knew that was the next SMOTY. It was great meeting a lot of you and hope to make the trek there again someday with hopefully different weather conditions! Thanks everyone!

Default Wow !

The car and workmanship was stunning Steve ! I took tons of pictures and drooled over all the great work in design and layout of all the systems and parts. The interior is well executed and looks like a current vette/camaro in materials choices. A couple of us had a lot of fun trying to figure out how you'd get the engine bay sheetmetal out with all those hidden fasteners smoothed and tucked away so nicely. Well done and you should be very proud !

Get some rest and soak up the well deserved kudos !



Jim
