Nice seeing everyone from FLP today. I have to say that Dans new race car is bad ***. Pictures do not do it justice. Also got a close look at the new magnum twin turbo car that they have been building. The work looks very tight and clean. JC and Mary were there from Performance Concepts with their vette. Very nice Folks and always nice to see them. Looks good and keep up the good work Guy's. Vince
