    You can see the eye of an artist in this car, for sure. Thanks for bringing something to the salt that is not only fast, but pleasing to the eye too. Scientific aerodynamics may be for folks who don't know how to build engines, but artistic aerodynamics are for people who like to stir souls while stomping down the salt.

    Just what is on the doors were the stainless trim once was, and would a custom moulded rear window help the aero effect? Bob
