I see people out there spending money on the car to improve it … If you spend half that effort just working on your driving skills, making you and the car work together as a team, then you’ll go faster – period. To make the car go a second faster on the track takes a lot more energy and money than making yourself drive it one second faster.

Thanks for asking, I should have some pictures in a week or 2.
Right now it looks like a pile of painted parts; and I need some rest.

I did the body work and got the bulk of the car painted in 8 days*.
which is very close to a record for me.
( * There were a couple of 13 1/2 hour work days required.)

I know I want to get 2 GRM events out of the car ('07 and '0.
Then I'll figure out if I want to keep it.
