Thanks guys! Yeah I could fit maybe 2-3 more but it's borderline. I might black out the rear panel like a Berger but that will be it for cosmetics.

Guess I need to find this article and see how special you really are. Nice job when someone else writes about how good you are. Does that decal pay you anything? Those are the best kind. I've heard there is a .100 drag on that stuff - John!

I read the article. Nice job. What happened to your first motor? It did not really explain what happened to the car.
