    Thanks alot for the compliments guys.. My goal is to make speedweek this year. Hopefully sooner but we'll see how it goes. Still alot to do yet.
    Rich it was great to meet you as well and also to everyone who stopped by the Old Crow for the GNRS show. We had about 200 people come through the doors.... Lucky

    Yeah I was gonna race for a few years then convert back to a street car but I quickly realized there is no side vision at all in this car. You can't see anything but straight ahead..... Lucky

    Did you check out Paul Heady's yellow coupe # 342, next to me in the pits at World Finals ?
    He ran XF/VFALT for the record .
    Front engine , but I noticed he had his flatty dropped and set back a bunch . Pretty smart build also.
