After everything thats happened, and what youve been through with the car, i dont think anyone would blame ya,

But your perseverance through the thick and thin is part of what makes this build so special.

I for one LOVED to see this car in person finally and see it go down the track.

I cant tell ya what to do Brian, but i do wish you the best of luck in what ever decision you make, and thank your for bringing us along along for the hit!

BUT, for the love of god, please think harder

It really would be sad to see it go Brian. But it is understandable with all that has happened this year.

I know I have certianly had my ups and downs with my car over the years. Also though they all pale in comparison to what has happened to you this year.

Just don't make a rash decision that you might regret later.

Brian I can't imagine the frustration you must feel. It's a major decision to make on whether you sell it all or just let it go for a year. I've pondered selling my heap too, but I know in a few months I'd regret that decision......I think if you sold it all, you would be kicking yourself next year. Maybe I'm wrong

If ya don't sell it.. maybe just backing the program down to a level that doesn't take anywhere near the cubic dollars to run...

I know pushing the envelope is how things get developed, and it's the reason we race.. but at some point the dollar figure required to do it just can't be justified.

reconsidering what I had posted earlier. An x275 conversion is a possibility at this point
