12 but I think they only had 9 winners this year. Jerry Magnuson's 32 went over pretty well you might say.

Speaking of Jerry...... You never told me how your trip went to Magna Charger.

I've got one picture! The hood is coming along, albeit kind of slowly because I wasn't as clear as I could have been on the design so Jeff had to go back a second time and rework some parts. The aluminum didn't really want to cooperate to begin with, and with something this thin, it was a bit of a nightmare to keep warping to a minimum, so as you can see, it is taking some time to straighten it out.

I would love to have a hood like this in carbon *cough*Tyler*cough*

Of course. It doesn't look that different from the last photo, but they are all tacked in place now. The base we made angled the pedals back a bit to make them a little more comfortable for the driver. They felt weird being perpendicular to the floor. I forgot to take a good picture from the outside where Dick is working on a plate.



By the way Rodger, how did the Magna Charger trip go? I've been telling myself I don't need a supercharger, I don't need a supercharger, but they sound so sweet. Now I come to find out they don't whine like they used to. What the hell?

It is crazy how fast this is coming together...
