some nice work you there !!

Oh the dream of larger brakes....

::sigh::

Member the older TV show, where all those perfectly good cars would bite the dust in chase scenes, and he'd sit there with this cringing, twisted look on his face, and I knew he would have given anything to have a car as good as the one they just trashed.

Yes, I am a simple man, with simple needs. The end product will no doubt leave me drooling once again over my monitor.

Note to self!!! remember not to park near any bushes!!!!!! Gotta remember that note.



[quote]perfectly good cars would bite the dust [/quote]

Yeh, rally cars almost always bite the dust which is why I was enjoying a little self promotion while it is still clean and straight. Should stay that way for another month (that's the first race), but not much longer. Whenever I build a car I usually approach each race as if it is the last, that way when I wad it up, it isnt like I wasnt expecting it. That doesnt help the pain, but helps to hide it a little. And yes, I will post wadded up pictures when that happens someday too, but I hope that isnt the first race.

OMG! This car looks awesome!!
