Nice daily driver

Car shows sucks indeed, but its a good oppurtunity to mix with a lot of the local enthusiasts and other shops.

That was a funny comment to your son Kurt, "See that car, Daddy's gonna whip dat ***" I believe was the comment.

We'll be ready when you are, hope you make good on your promise though.

I think you got that quote about right (I said it over by Tom's car also). You guys are not the only one's that can talk smack! Now we just need to put the car together the rest of the way! We are still hoping to get it ready for the April race in Atlanta.

Most certainly a stupid question but, why wasn't the turbo on this car rotated 90 ccw? Seems like that coulda saved ~180` worth of bends on the cold side and almost that much on the hot side. I imagine this would be more obvious in person, but I just can't tell from the pics.

Bad *** car btw.
