Cool Fame (but no fortune)

I sent the picture Tyler took of my car launching @ B-town to Hoosier telling them how happy I was with the 1.5x 60' times I was running, and they put my car on their website. Kinda cool.....

Thanks Tyler!

Very pic!!! Now all you need is some skinnies and those front tires might actually have some space under them.

Yeah, anytime any car from up here gets some noteriety, I think it's a good thing for all of us.

Also, it the original hi-res picture you can clearly see the sidewalls of the Hoosiers wrinkling. A LOT!!! So the tires seem to work, and the suspension seems to work. Now if I can just get the red-light virus taken care of, and drop another 10th or 2, I will be a happy camper.

Awsome deal Mark. Very nice Pic. Hope you ordered a new helmet for that big head to fit into. In all seriousness, I agree, any props from the great NW is good for all.
