Yeah good job man, but yeah I agree the stickers take away from the car, unless your getting paid by sponsors.

I don't think you guys understand what GIZMO there does. It is a race car not a street car and goes amazingly fast given the restrictions they face.

I made a bunch of money off of those stickers over the years! The companies put up contingency money for winner and runner up at both IHRA and NHRA races. They can be worth $50.00-$750.00 each!

Thanks! Mark now owns both the 1/8 and 1/4 mile IHRA B/FIA records (6.71 and 10.72). Not too bad for a little old LT1! I can't wait to get my new car finished.

Take Care,
